Sounds like Trump would like to run for President.

He was asked about Obama and he said that Obama is a "nice man" who is "in way over his head"

He said that the story of Obama is inspiring...one day he's knocking on doors doing community service in Chicago, and now he's president. But he said real clearly that Obama is over his head and has zero experience in economics and leadership.

I have no problems with Obama (other than I'm disappointed that he hasn't seemed to do any of the things I thought he would), but listening to Trump...I have to agree.

I think having a take charge, no bullshit guy like Trump in the White House could turn this country around.

I especially agree with what he said about our military. He said we are throwing away all of our nations wealth by "protecting the world" He said he would close the bases in Germany, Japan, and all the other places that they just aren't needed and bring our military back home.

I'm 100% in agreement with that. I don't see ANY reason for us to continue to occupy Germany 66 years after the war. I don't think the Soviet Union is going to attack...lol

And none of the people (including Obama) in Washington have the balls to turn off that military base cash cow.

But Trump would. And he'd do the same to all the other things the govt. shouldn't be doing. He's not on the payroll like every senator and congressman is. He has the freedom to just do what needs to be done.

And he has the balls to do it too.
We are in complete agreement on that Robbie, I would love to pull a lot of the bases we don't need, not all of them, we have a Navy and it's a good thing for them to patrol the pacific and Atlantic. They do some amazing things in response to humanitarian efforts.
But only a couple Naval Bases. We can just rent a space at other foreign bases.
Foreign aid is another thing that has to be looked at.
Obama came off like a Lawyer to me and I don't trust lawyers and when he started having the backroom deals, I knew he was just another guy making promises and not keeping them. We need a leader, whether you like him or not, we need someone that can lead both parties, not omit the one with no power at the time.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
