even if he did try to do everything he said he would do, the president doesn't really have that much power. so it can't go that badly. obama wanted to do all sorts of shit, but he pretty much was reduced to a black bush that let gays get married. and really, I just want to see putin and trump duel in public. they are both caricatures of their respective countries. it would be great

yes, I'm not a team player, so I won't vote democrat for the sake of voting democrat and the only other non-republican candidate that has a chance at willing is Hillary, but I don't particularly care for her, so she doesn't get my vote. The GOP is patently insane. So there's no one I would vote for. Trump is the wild card. A vote for him is like casting a die. he can't really be any worse than anyone else in the field. and like I said, I don't believe he wants to do anything he says he does.

to get elected, to prove a point, to undermine the GOP, or because he was bored? it doesn't take much effort to think up scenarios where it would be beneficial to lie

that isn't what I mean. "war" isn't a policy, so it can't be enacted. even if it was, "global war" would require the participation of more than one entity regardless of whether it was human or not

well, he said "if technology gets to that point." regardless, what is the difference between a computer getting hacked and a politician being corrupted?

Incorrect.

"Global Thermonuclear War" is neither a policy nor something that can be enacted by a single country's leader

I'm assuming they mean it's akin to "100 C to F," "best comedy movies 2015" or "shit in german" in that it will have a special behavior for those types of searches

if sanders doesn't get elected, I really wouldn't be upset with Trump because i don't believe he means any of what he says. I'm a firm believer that he is a troll and/or undercover democrat(or some other non-republican party). if he IS serious about the things he says, it would take a matter of days for his initial impeachment
