If people would be peaceful without Trump's stance on Islam why has there been muslim terrorists since 615 AD? I've seen a lot of attacks by jihadists long before Trump and there will be a lot after he's gone.By the way the egg came first by millions of years.
Since the Europeans are so nice why do the jihadists keep attacking them?
Trump's stated view is that it's time to put America first and make America great again. His actions are meant to accomplish that.
Trumps actions diminishes the US in every conceivable way.
His stance on Muslims emboldens and strengthens the terrorists giving them exactly what they want.
His isolationist policy weakens NATO and economically his threats to inflict raised taxes on other countries goods will lead to tit for tat economic raises which will inevitably lead to US citizens paying more for stuff.
remember the last two world wars happened when the US was in isolationist mode.
So Trump is responsible for the jihadist in Paris that attacked the cops yesterday?
The US created NATO. If it no longer serves our purpose why should we continue to be in it?
If other countries raise taxes on our goods it will increase their tax revenue giving them more money to spend on their infrastructures. On the flip side it will also impose a financial burden on their poorer citizens wrecking their economies.
A lot of the big wigs claim that there are too many people on the planet so they want to get rid of about 80% of the world's population. They don't care how it's done because they don't expect to be in the 80% that's killed off. As usual they expect other people to do the dying while they reap the benefits.
