I get that you believe yourself to be a foreign policy expert, but the real foreign policy experts at the NYT disagree. We're in an arms race that rivals Cold War level tensions.

Nope, Trump doesn't seem to advocate or call for an arms race whatsoever.
Good thing we have you to tell us what he says isn't what he means.
All I'm saying is that the liberal media's grave mistake was taking him literally but not seriously. His supporters take him seriously but not literally.
I'll continue being right and watching the liberal media be wrong, whether you decide to accept it or not

Because trump isn't a part of the globalist goons that have been fighting a proxy war against him for the last year, he's suggested that they could work together on ISIS and has talked about things he admires about putin. Basically, overall, Putin knows trump is going to be less hostile. Doesn't matter in the type of rhetoric he was engaging in. The globalists were close to starting WWIII with their actions in Syria. Trump isn't going to engage in that kind of corrupt, unnecessary warfare.

I hope you're right.
-------------------- I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them. I also attack my side if I think they're wrong. People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.

Any tension you're sensing is caused by NATO pushing them into a corner, Russia responding and the western media picking a side.

you don't think his international business affiliates classifies him as a "globalist goon?" he is highly involved in international politics through his business contacts. he may not be politically involved, but he does have all kinds of political ties and influence.

I never claimed to be an expert, but I am aware of history, and I also understand that both the U.S. and Russia will continue to abide by the START treaty, which limits the total number of warheads. Neither side plans to go back to nine or ten thousand devices. So how can this be the equivalent of the Cold War arms race? Please enlighten me.

so someone who is an internationally active businessman and has his production lines in non-USA countries isn't a globalist?

He did what was most advantageous for his business. His sorts of practices were made legal by globalist politicians. He is already taking steps to reverse their globalist policies.

See, you're confused. I'll break it down for you in a way you'll be able to understand.
What a hypocrite would do: >Trump uses globalist policies to his advantage >Trump campaigns against globalist policies >Trump is elected >Trump doesn't repeal globalist policies >Trump continues to use globalist policies to his business' advantage
What Trump is actually doing >Trump uses globalist policies to his advantage >Trump campaigns against globalist policises >Trump is elected >Trump begins to repeal globalist policies >Trump brings investment and blue collar jobs back into the US.
Trump said over and over again during his campaign that he indeed used to be one of those people. One of the top 1% globalists. He admitted that he had used globalist policies to his advantage and even engaged in shrmoozing polciticans with money to get what he wants. He made it a HUGE point of his campaign that he is qualified to fix problems like that because he knows what goes on behind closed doors better than anyone.
