THE TRUMPIAN THREAT TO WORLD ORDER

In a recent Financial Times article, Phillip Stearns penned an opinion piece entitled, "The Trumpian Threat to World Order". I have one question and one reply for the esteemed UK daily and Mr. Stearns:

QUESTION - What "world order" ?

REPLY - Bully. Isn't it refreshing, perhaps redeeming, that Trump is threatening the terrible state of affairs loosely called, "world order".

Given the migration chaos in the EU, BREXIT, the continuing eruption of violence from the Mid East, rouge nations such as Iran and North Korea frothing, and the Russia/China tag team steadily threatening an inept Obama, isn't it great that someone poses an upheaval to the status quo. If elected Hillary Clinton will simply walk the same walk as Obama, and maintain the funk that has become our GDP, state of race relations, foreign policy, and the alphabet soup of federal agencies that have successfully bottled up improvements in our national infrastructure, energy independence, veterans care, educational system, and armed forces. Her administration will be politics as usual, and haven't we suffered too much of that ? 

If Trump wins in November it could be a great disaster, but as he tells his black audiences, "whatta ya gotta lose" given the trail of broken promises from decades of democrats. In my opinion, for too many administrations, most especially during the Obama Abomination, the USA has been going backwards. Riots and acts of terrorism have become the new normal. A black president who got the Pulitzer Peace Prize for doing absolutely nothing for peace has allowed more murders in his adopted hometown of Chicago than any other president. He has used his bully pulpit to divide races and different economic groups. His previous experience as a "community organizer" has been missing as blacks have suffered more violence, poverty, and unemployment then before he took office. With his highly touted Universal Health Care Scheme, Obama has again shown the utter failure that is socialism when mixed with government bureaucracy on steroids.

Ms. Clinton is a future Obama minus his considerable charisma, spunk, and endearing smile. Her policies will simply extend the unconstitutional and immature path of non leadership played so well by Barrack Obama.

Trump has been a successful and pragmatic business man with incredible negotiating skills. He is neither a pure republican, democrat, liberal, progressive, greenie, socialist, or alien. To his credit he has no political experience except for the whooping he gave 16 or so formidable political heavyweights during the nomination sweepstakes. Despite what many perceive as arrogance, gruffness, bad hair, and profane language,  he is a super star at getting things done, and has a very good track record. Further, he has an enthusiasm and energy that dwarfs the pitiful efforts of Hillary Clinton.

Despite huge chunks of the establishment hurling their incredible weight to insure his defeat, he soldiers on like an energizer bunny. I think it is good that Mr. Trump might pose a threat to the world order because it has been a miserable state of affairs for far too long. Trump's attempt at "Making America Great Again" might just make the world a little better place too.
