I'm curious to see how they spin the middle east to make it look like her time as Sec of State bodes well for her being commander in chief. Not that Trump is any better. But he isn't on the hook for any actual decisions, so he's just theoretically awful.
Overall though, it's going to be a shit show. Both are obviously disasters willing to switch positions at any moment, and pander to any crowd if it gets them a few more votes. With all the inconsistencies, I think it'll just be a lot of finger pointing and hollering. The winner might be the one who makes less of their own supporters decide to stay home out of disgust.
Is he? He's said that he wants to defeat ISIS and then leave the middle east. That our constant involvement in the middle east is bad for America and the world. Honestly it's probably Trump's best position.
I agree his high level strategy is good. I think the theoretically awful part may be how he's going to implement it, which I don't think anyone, including him has any idea. So far, we've got "Make other people defeat ISIS." But in general, the vague plan to pull back from the theater is still better than a clear hawk which is one of the reasons I'm voting for him over Hillary.
Gary Johnson isn't bad. But he is a consumption tax guy, and my eyeballs always threaten to fall out from rolling to hard whenever I hear that or flat tax.
