I think the fact that the man is easily offended and clearly unstable, as demonstrated by any number of midnight tweet-storms, is a real point. "Ending the world" is a worst case scenario, but it gets mentioned because for once it's on the table. Criticisms of Trump sound like hyperbole, but so does most of what he says and does.AzrealMaximillion said:
By the way, just in case this wasn't bad enough, her mother, actress/musician Debbie Reynolds, died today of a stroke [http://ktul.com/news/entertainment/report-debbie-reynolds-has-medical-emergency-day-after-daughters-carrie-fishers-death].
I hear you, but to be honest that whole worry about nuclear strikes from Presidents we don't like has been a common insult for decades now. Its kind of lost its weight. Clinton's saber rattling with Russia should be considered just as worrying considering the US and Russia are constantly engaging in proxy wars. The midnight tweets don't bother me with Trump. His cabinet picks scare me way more.Pyrian said:
I'm kind of done expecting Presidential Decorum from world leaders. Its a loose fitting mask anyways. I'd rather have some humanity be seen as flawed as it may be, as long as the actions and policies are carried out in a manner that makes sense. People think that voting for President is voting for a King, when in reality your voting for a spokesperson for your country that mainly decides what legislation to approve or veto. Another thing that scares me with Trump is that he's got a Republican House, Congress, and 2-3 Supreme court picks on his side. If Clinton would have won, she'd have been catering to conservative politicians in the same way Bill Clinton did when the Dems lost their power during his first mid-terms.
