(38,326 posts)... any threat to the U.S.A.?
I can't help but notice that Trump only threatens those who are in no position to fight back.
It reminds me of my middle and high school days. I was a skinny, squeaky, clumsy, and highly reactive kid, thus a favorite target for the bullies.
They knew they could call me queerbait and beat me bloody with impunity.
Hell, there were so-called adults in the schools who told me that all my problems would go away if I learned how to act like a "man." I could be covered with mud, my clothes torn, kicked and bruised, footprints on my back, and they'd imply it was somehow my fault?
I'm absolutely certain Trump grew up in an environment where bullying was mistaken for strength and I'd cry for his children if they didn't believe the same. I know people who grew up in hellish environments and chose not to carry on those family traditions. Trump is not one of those people. His dad sucked, he sucks, and his adult sons suck like holes into the emptiness of hell.

(20,006 posts)won't rule out a "military option" in Venezuela, home of the world's largest proven oil reserves?
Gee, I wonder if that's why Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro has overseen military exercises, claiming the country is under threat of invasion? In January.
