Trump not that bad : Comments

By Peter Coates, published 18/1/2017

Trump's rise recognises the superiority of power over international law and the advantages of being proactive rather than reactive.

You mean the deplorables do you ?

One thing you can say for President Trump -
he'll certainly go down in history!

Can he deliver on his promises?

It seems hardly unlikely - But we'll have to wait and see.
Fingers crossed that his attitude of "Is it for sale?"
won't have a devastating effect on the rest of us.

Hi Foxy

Trump's shenanigans may easily be the bread & butter subject for http://gentleseas.blogspot.com.au/ for the next 4 years.

He is at heart an attention getting entertainer.

By adding "President" to his list of characters, he has a guaranteed audience of 340 million/week in the US alone. Add 4 Billion non-Americans.

In our region maybe he'll sell Tasmania and NZ to the Chinese running out of Lebensraum and farmland.

Hello Pete,

Interesting times ahead that's for sure.

However, I hope and pray that Congress does not
allow him a free hand - especially as far as
his obligations to American allies are concerned.
Also I am concerned about Mr Putin's interest
in his neighbours namely Ukraine and the Baltic
States. Trump's admiration for Putin is a worry.

This was written before his inauguration. Now, after a week in office would this author stick by his assessment?

Definitely sticking by.

Trump has the good sense to back away from a goodly part of his more unsustainable positions.

This is after Trump's well chosen Cabinet persuades him to the sensible.

Its those who don't like a white man* running America who cannot accept Trump.

* Not screeching Hillary or apologetic Obama the Moor.
