Trump has argued for killing the families of terrorists. That is decidedly not an isolationist policy.Click here if you're having trouble sleeping.

Trump is a bigger hawk than Hillary and has called on deploying forces to various locations of the world. It is naive to think otherwise. This is based off what he said. And at one point he was calling for the US to invade both Syria and Libya. He contradicts himself all the time.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

Certainly something that can be taken against him, but again it is not the foreign policy.Socrates: "Good is That at which all things aim, If one knows what the good is, one will always do what is good." Brian: "Romanes eunt domus"

Trump is not a "devil" (or Oerdin) where everything he says or does is wrong.
Pick the points where he is shows poor judgement, according to your world-view, and challenge behind those (him threatening to kill families of terrorists is one such point for example). No need to claim that he is wrong "everywhere" as there are plenty of actual examples where you can find his stance detestable.Socrates: "Good is That at which all things aim, If one knows what the good is, one will always do what is good."

So pardon me for not believing his used car salesman bull****.
He is a vile detestable man. And I hope Michelle Obama contributes more... A few more speeches like that will send Trump tanking in the polls.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

There are many reasons why Trump should not be thought of a reasonable, but foreign policy is not one of them, it is the reason why I will be personally happy if he wins.
I might agree with you in regards to foreign policy otherwise.

Originally posted by Lorizael View PostHe has repeatedly said that America needs to hit ISIS hard and fast. Seriously, his is not an isolationist policy. Yes, he doesn't want to get involved with nation-building. Instead he just wants to bomb anyone even remotely associated with terrorism or radical Islam and then just sit back and watch.
Hit ISIS hard with the Russians, put Assad back in the driving seat and start rebuilding Syria with the old/new dictator behind, looking for stability in the region.Socrates: "Good is That at which all things aim, If one knows what the good is, one will always do what is good."

Found one article on him flip-flopping, and as far as politicians go (not to mention Hillary), he is actually not flip-flopping much, this is basically blown up out of proportions, there are a lot of better reasons for attacking Trump than foreign policy, especially considering he is running against Hillary.Socrates: "Good is That at which all things aim, If one knows what the good is, one will always do what is good."
