Trump's Speech on Foreign Policy
« on: April 27, 2016, 05:06:42 pm »
I watched as much as I could stand.

Hollow, empty, meaningless, lack of substance.  I'm crying.  The DEMS I'm sure are laughing!  Really?  This is Trump.  In a nutshell.  Meaningless, hollow and an empty suit!!  He just gave Hillary the White Hosue if he's the nominee.

God help us!

Upon which substantive policy issue, do you disagree?

Can you opine on positions, of Clinton, Trump and Cruz?

Where did you find this?  There's no way you know what "dyslexia" means, never mind how to spell it.  So, fess up---who'd you plagiarize?

NONE of you has offered a criticism of the substance of Trump's policy direction.  And spare me your adolescent "because there wasn't any".

Why not tell us what you object to in Trump's foreign policy direction - - - you know specifically.  Let's talk about that instead of commenting on tweets from people who are probably sitting next to you in your basement.

So, come on, Cruzoids, dazzle your audience----tell us your vision for America's geopolitical position.

Notice Trumped stopped, waited for applause, and one or two people applauded and then he moved on to the next empty statement.  His speech was poor. He delivered it poorly, without emphasis, without conviction.  He sounded ill prepared.  I think even Trump is now realizing he's in over his head.  We are a country in dire need of a strong constitutional conservative.  We don't need a business Tycoon looking to see how he can cash in on this deal.
