Trumpian Foreign Policy

Donald Trump has already performed more “public service” than all the crooks, conmen, and clowns in Washington combined during their entire lifetimes by so enraging the Republican Party establishment.  They are so enraged because they understand that a billionaire is darn hard to bribe with a mere few million bucks — unlike all the other sorry losers seeking the party’s nomination.

That said, it was a little alarming to hear Trump say to Sean Hannity last night, “I like [John] Bolton” in response to a question about where he gets some of his policy ideas.  He then said that if he is elected president, he would invade, conquer, and occupy Iran, confiscate their oil reserves, and use the money to give “millions — millions !!!” to “our veterans.”

Of course, there would be hundreds of thousands of additional American “wounded warriors” walking around with missing arms, legs, and brain matter should there be a war with Iran, a country that is four times the size of Iraq and which, unlike Iraq, still has an air force and a navy and a large army that would fight to the death to fend off the foreign invaders.
