Default Trump is sick and Tired of USA acting as world policeman

I like his thinking.

On CNN he was interviewed by Blizter himself. Told him North Korea is China's problem to fix. Some real good approaches.

Will be interesting to hear how he handles Canada.

Might as well ask how he'll handle the endangered unicorn population. He has no hope in hell of ever being elected president.

I don't think China has much of a desire for North Korea to change, so see nothing to fix. The US is the one that wants North Korea to be fixed.

The US doesn't really act as the world's policeman. If they did, they would have 100,000 troops in Africa trying to stop all manner of wars and revolutions and genocide. They get involved where they think they have strategic assets to protect. They aren't saints. They aren't evil either. They are pretty much like any other major power. That wouldn't change under Trump, IMHO

It's Trump's to lose. Now that there is a movie being released about the Benghazi fiasco, the dems don't have much to offer. Once Trump gets the nod for the G.O.P. it's all over but the whining.

I laughed when I saw the preview as I half expected to see that it was produced by Trump. I guarantee that the release timing was not a mistake or fluke.

World policeman? You must be kidding! Country with Nobel Peace Prize winner and author of "A New Beginning" speech in 2009 in Cairo for president - no way!

All I was trying to say is that what politicians are saying has nothing to do with what they will be doing. Shame or conscience is just not in the job description. Unfortunately, I don't think Trump is any different.

PS. Sorry for the edits, but grammar is not my forte even in my 1st language

X 2 Hell ya he has a chance with what we seen hear in Canada was a bunch of people that did not think on what the consequences would be!. It took two months for the NDP to cause a **** storm and i know of people that voted them in just for change then come back to say WTF did i do . People where to diveded all it was is a change vote . Could you see the US with the wicked witch of the west as the new leader what would they see for a future. Trump says what people want to hear and see done not a change vote that's what Obama said and look what he has done. Trump is the first president candidate to say it like it is ever!!. The US and the world is in a **** storm and he tells it as it looks not with all this political Bull**** words that we have seen and heard for DECADES!!. He has hope and i would like to see what he could do.
