A couple of days past, someone said to me that they believed Donald Trump is the most 'dangerous' person ever to run for the office of President. The person continued making his case with reasons like the following:
Trump has said he will deport children of undocumented immigrants. That means he deporting U.S. Natural born citizens, unlike Trump's wife. He would also stop all Muslims from entering the United States and have law enforcement surveillance of all Mosques in America. This means imposing a religious litmus test, which is unconstitutional.
He will take oil fields from sovereign nations. This is illegal. Should other Nation's naval military make 'gestures' towards United States naval people, he will order those people "Shot out of the water." This would be equivalent to shooting another citizen for 'flipping you off.' This appears to be an act of war and certainly a crime. Trump believes North Korea should have a nuclear weapon while thinking the nuclear disarmament agreement with Iran is a bad agreement made by America. Square that logic. Trump thinks that Russian dictator, Vladimir Putin is a good leader. Folks, it is documented that Putin has Russian citizens executed should they strongly oppose the leader.
Trump believes Hillary Clinton is a crook for hiding emails and activities within the Clinton Charity Foundation while dismissing his refusal to disclose his personal tax returns. Add to these documented positions his demeaning posture towards women and people of color, intolerance of some religions and personal attacks on anybody disagreeing with him, one can readily understand why Trump admires Putin.
If 'dangerous' still means treacherous, I would go farther than my friend's premise. I would say, Donald Trump, in the position of a world leadership role could be one of the most dangerous leaders in 'that' world.
