Just when you thought the cluelessness of Dumbass Don could not reach a higher plateau, he one ups his own stupidity.

Trump is Captain Neocon.Works for me... In June Trump told O'Reilly: “I say that you can defeat ISIS by taking their wealth,” Trump told the Fox News Channel star. “Take back the oil. Once you go over and take back that oil, they have nothing. You bomb the hell out of them, and then you encircle it, and then you go in. And you let Mobil go in, and you let our great oil companies go in. Once you take that oil, they have nothing left.”
He continued: “I would hit them so hard. I would find you a proper general, I would find the Patton or MacArthur. I would hit them so hard your head would spin.”
Not Neocon at all. The Neocons left them have their oil and left the Chinese take it. The Neocons waged an insane war with stupid rules of engagement that got our men killed. The Neocons paid everyone for the slightest damage they suffered from the war.
The Neocons ran the war so poorly that, if we weren't printing money, it would have bankrupted us.
If you are going to wage war, do it right. Kill the enemy and loot their treasure to pay for it.
Spin it anyway you want, but Trump is Captain Neocon.
Nothing wrong with that except taking the oil away from those who remain and who helped defeat ISIS is shear stupidity. That would set off a Jihad like we have never seen in our lifetime.

“In Trump We Trust.” Right????
SOMEBODY please tell TRH that Netanyahu NEVER said "Once we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away."
Good. It's time to sort those b@stards out anyway.
Yes. But...The Devil in in the details. Trump wants to use Kurd boots on the ground. That is a splendid idea. But taking their hard fought oil away and giving it to Mobil would have Jihadists recruits lined up around the block.

Rand Paul must be on medication. News Flash Rand had Trump not decided to run for President the Dems would have won in a Landslide. WTF is wrong with him?

I'm not hot on giving it to Mobil but Trump is spot-on about defunding them. I've said that since all this stuff started up. They can Jihad all they want to with some donated AK's. It's a far cry from their homey Obama giving them nukes. The problem with Trump's plan is Putin ain't going to just sit by and see his fuel supply dry up. But that's okay too. I'm not a Putin fan like the rest here. As far as I'm concerned, he can get in line to kiss our asses too.

Point of correction - the ISIS/ME oil ain't going to Russia. It's going to China primarily. Russia is a major oil and gas exporter, not importer. China is the exact opposite and very dependent upon the ME. Increased production from the U.S. or the ME is a negative to Russia; decreased production benefits them. Again, China is the exact opposite.

Frontline on PBS did a show about Putin last night. Seems he's worth more than $40 billion...all fleeced from the Russian citizens. He built a private palace for himself for a cool $250 million.
So, who do you trust? I don't trust anyone anymore. I wish the libertarians could run someone who didn't sound and act like Gomer's cousin, because I'm really leaning that way.
Unless we get someone who puts the country first it's over. It's that simple.
The establishment on both sides have been selling out to special interests for years and the majority of this country have suffered as a result.
Both sides come in every four years and spout off things they think people want to hear, and then go about paying back favors they were given during their campaigns and forget all about what's good for the country.
We've sold out to the 2% of the queers in the country. We've sold out to the environmentalists, we've sold out to corporate America, and we've sold out to foreign countries.
They may think people are stupid, but I think people have had enough. If the GOP establishment picks the candidate, Pubs simply stay home.
My general outlook on the world is libertarian but there's no damn way in the world that everybody in the country is going to wake up tomorrow and want to give up whatever it is that they perceive that they get from big government.
So that's out.
My criteria for President now is,..Don't steal my 401K and don't blow up the world.
It doesn't seem like much to ask, but it's more than 90% of the candidates are offering.
