    like onefoot, i think that trump's likely foreign policy will be better than hillary's likely foreign policy.

      You are incorrect. Trump called for Qaddadis removal. He has totally flip flopped. Trump is awful on foreign policy and his ideas towards other people and nations is disgusting. He wouldn't just launch wars, he would destroy the image of this nation in various parts of the world.

      You think it is difficult now? Wait until that lunatic gets in power. His extremely neoconservative foreign policy would create even more terrorists.

        I think absolutely not.

        He would ruin relations with other countries and his deal making ability is absolute ****.

          This is so ridiculous it isn't even true. He would bomb other countries, he wouldnt bother rebuilding them. Oh and his justifying the crackdown by Turkish President Erdogan was deplorable and disgusting. Read the article I posted in the Turkey coup thread. Thousands have been arrested without trial and many have been tortured and murdered.

          His foreign policy is absolute vague ****, just like most of his other views. Oh and building a wall... awesome foreign policy. Not.

              well of course you don't. he certainly seems like far less of a warmonger, and he has been strongly critical of the iraq war and other such disasters.

                From what I can see/read - he would bomb ISIS, that's about it.

                His justification of what Erdogan is doing is deplorable, but again Hillary will support Erdogan regardless, so same ****, but prettier packaging on Hillary's side who already did "bomb other countries and did not bother rebuilding them", so Trump cannot be worse than her in that aspect, not to mention that his current stance is clear and articulate that US needs to get out of wars in the ME, pretty much the opposite of Hillary, who is in for doubling down on the failed policies of last decade and a half.

                  Nope. He is a bigger war monger than Hillary and very aggressive and nasty. He flip flops all the time and lies about where he stands depending on who he talks with.

                    Wrong in all counts. He would bomb entire nations and even probably bomb Nigeria because they have Boko Haram. He is reckless and vicious with his rhetoric. Trump is clearly worse. Stop trying to justify his insanity. He isn't going to get us out of the middle east. I don't believe that for a minute. He would drive us deeper and deeper into that mess than Hillary ever would.

                    Unlike you, I don't believe his stupid miserable lies.

                    And building a wall and demanding the Mexicans pay for it show he is a stupid ****ing idiot.

                      And why should I believe that moron or anything he says? Used car salesman shtick. Sorry for insulting used car salesmen.

                        what are you denying here, that he criticised the iraq war? how exactly is he a bigger warmonger than hillary who has both supported and overseen wars? maybe you could try backing up what you say instead of constant BAM.

                          He supported the intervention in Libya and wanted one in Syria. you have never backed up your claims. Hillary has overseen wars? That is interesting. Since when? Secretary of States don't oversee wars. Yeah you even admitted you know little about US politics.

                          Maybe you could admit I know more than you.

                          Trump is lying and full of ****. So why should I believe him?

                            well, it seems that you don't know that the secretary of state deals with foreign policy. and you appear to be moving the goal posts. the claim is that trump is less of a warmonger than hillary. the evidence for that are the positions he has taken, which include criticising the iraq war, his very different view of syria (i.e. backing assad rather than the rebels), and his generally more isolationist stance. this contrasts with hillary, who has supported/supports every war going, wants to continue with the current syria policy, and has said that she wants a more 'muscular', i.e. aggressive and interventionist, foreign policy.

                            onefoot has posted lots of evidence of the above, which you just BAM away or ignore.

                              And you still aren't backing up your claims. Secretary of State doesn't oversee wars. The rest of your dreck contrasts with his vicious and abrasive personality. He has a gungho mentality. He isn't an isolationist. Your statements on Hillary meanwhile are unsupported and blatantly false. Maybe you should actually read what she has said.

                              So basically you can sit here make up lies and post nonsense that came out of that man's mouth as fact, but you don't need to back yourself up.

                              Onefoot didn't post anything of relevance.
