    Interesting to see how Trump is going to beat Clinton in foreign politics. But like to George W, Europe is a country and it´s capital is Europe, and Eiffel tower is in Madrid....

    Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump acknowledged on Tuesday he does not yet have a foreign policy team, and three former U.S. military and intelligence officials who have endorsed him are little known in either the Republican Party or the wider foreign policy community.
    The New York billionaire, who had promised to name his foreign policy and national security advisers last month, told MSNBC that he has met with people but made no decision yet on who to advise him on global affairs.
    Asked whether he had a team, Trump said on Tuesday: "Yes, there is a team. Well, there's not a team. I'm going to be forming a team at the appropriate time. I've met with far more than three people."

    At this point I really doubt Trump will be the Republican candidate. Remember he needs a majority of the delegates to vote for him and he isn't likely to get that. Before this Tuesdays primaries a interview on NPR pointed out that he needed to win 54% (I think it was) of the delegates in the remaining primaries to go into the convention with a majority. He "won" in Michigan getting something like 34% of Michigan's delegates. Most of the non Trump supporters are pretty sure he can't win but that a better candidate has a very good chance of beating Hillary and at least some of beating Sanders. After the first round of voting and the delegates are released I suspect they will rally around one of the more moderate candidates.

    But also remember that beginning March 15, most primaries are either "winner take all" or "winner take more" states, rather than awarding delegates proportionally.

    The only one the polls currently show Hillary beating is Trump. Of course the more reasonable candidates aren't really Rinos either except perhaps in your fantasy world. Your prioritization is questionable as well but that's hardly a surprise is it?

    I thought there will be discussions on tv where the candidates tell their view about foreign policy. Not after the election. Or is it in the US you need not have a foreign policy to be elected?

    1 ) In most countries foreign policy is not decisive for the outcome of the election . Ask the average American to indicate Finland on a map,ask the average Finn if California is on the West Coast or on the East Coast : some will answer : on the North Coast .


    2 ) Mostly it is the economy who decides the outcome,as old Bush was experiencing .


    3) To discuss foreign policy, you don't need a team, only one-liners The average viewer only remembers one-liners .

    Reasonable : where did I heard this one ? oh yes :Mohammed saying one second before he was beheaded by the ISIS executioner : why me ? I always was reasonable .

    :he means : one should be reasonable to the ISIS scum .

    : there is only one reasonable solution for the ISIS scum : kill them, to the last man /woman . Otherwise they will kill you .

    Perhaps Donald J Trump is the right choice.

    Churchill was the right medicine for the Nazis, trump appears to be a perfect cure for militant Islamists.

    He really has "stamina" advantage over Mrs. Clinton.

    I guess he has to explain her what is wrong with his stamina in bedroom, without marketing tricks, just plain facts. How old he is anyways?

    "Tell that to his girlfriend..."
    Tell it to Huma, the Hill likes the mound.
    How Huma made it to be such an included person is a mystery. She has questionable connections, and is married to scum A Weiner. Sending secret emails from a unsecured server. damn, can't believe the hill is still being considered for pres.

    Breitbart got their panties in a knot when one of their reporters was jostled at a Trump event. They are trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill. Don't get it because Brietbart has always been pushing trump.

    IMHO, Trump is a threat to Neo Cons. If he's elected he will do all he can to get rid of them. If it comes down to the wire, I suspect they will unanimously vote Hillary. To make worse even the military said they will not support him. It seems the odds are stacked against him.
