Anyone who wants to be President shouldn't be President.

Or at the very least get their head examined.

From his wiki:

"His hobbies include writing poetry and short plays.[2]"

That screams a word I can't write in these fora.

Good thing his wife already betrayed her nation and declared herself an Austrian.
If that clown wins we will deny she ever existed.

Even members of Congress that share the same party as the President will shut that down. Congress won't give up their constitutional power to any president regardless of political power.

I know you have a huge knowledge about the laws, how the government a.s.o works in USA. And when I read you answer to my posting I was like-not again.

Reason, most of the things I write I write from memories what I have heard our specialist have said on TV, Radio, or Internet.

When I wrote my post, I had a Danish TV-expert to the USA's government a.s.o in my memories.

Remembering him saying about your President before and under WWII about isolismen
(can't find the exact word for it. There were group who was very strong before WWII and was absolutely not interested in getting USA involved) and your President after WWII.

Sometimes I get the feeling-These expert(Danish, Swedish and German) Seems to know absolutely nothing.

Anybody who wants the presidency so much that he'll spend two years organizing and campaigning for it is not to be trusted with the office.

Isolationism is the word you seek.

The members of congress were not keen on getting embroiled in another war back then either.

Thank you

But what I remember from my history it was not only the Congress, even many of the ordinary American on the street wasn't keen on getting involved.

Back to topic.

I think we need to stay out of isolationism.

I don't see Bush winning the nomination.

I don't see him winning Iowa or New Hampshire primaries and the wide nature of the GOP field gives great benefit to momentum.

Trump isn't running as a Republican, he's running as a joke. Every word written on him is in excess and a waste of electrons.

Trump is just the misdirection element. Like Pat Paulsen was.

I think some people will think long and hard before voting for a President of the same party as what holds both houses of Congress

House, Senate, and Presidency all held by the same party does not bode well for the country.
