What Trump doesn't get is that something he says now will come to haunt him later on. Let's say Trump wins and he goes to negotiate with a middle eastern country... He'll have to spend two years backpedaling and apologizing before they will even consider talking to him. You think Mexico will want to negotiate with anyone from the potential future Trump administration?

This is where Hillary has at least common sense.
This is my biggest worry with Trump as well. A lot of what he does can be held in check by congress, but he is a loose cannon and could piss off a lot of people. He did it yesterday. While he is on a mission to unite the Republicans he bashed the governor of New Mexico who is a Republican (and was rumored to be one of his VP candidates). She was not amused nor were others in the party. It likely won't hurt him when it comes to the voters, but other world leaders will pay attention to what he says and if he gets pissed or annoyed and just fires off from the hip he could cause damage.
