Somebody can see the writing on the wall?

Instruct Trump on sensitive issues that are fluid and that a campaign retoric can be, complicated?

I think they fully realize maybe he should get indoctrinated about the next job.

Hope they tell him about Area 51...just kidding, Trumos gonna ge POTUS, might as well bring him up to date.

Sounds good. Trump’s instincts are good but he needs to fine tune on a lot of issues. He seems like a guy who learns from his mistakes and continues to improve. If you can do that at age 69, you’re pretty darned solid.

The official narrative for this year has been “Trump is a narcissist and won’t listen to anyone but his own ego”.

Perhaps the businessman does listen to knowledgeable people he trusts, instead of listening to and chasing after every pundit who can get to a microphone (as career politicians tend to do).

Hmmm. Does Jeff Miller agree we should shut down NATO and divert the money to a school in Brooklyn?

Or was that from the time when Trump was taking advice from himself and “talking about things a lot” to build expertise?

The more I read about the inside workings of actually getting elected, the more I wonder if any private citizen would be capable of getting as far as Trump has gotten now. Trump is single-handedly tearing down the lawyer-class insider wall and he’s doing it as the front-runner. Go Trump Go!!

"50 years is enough , " Trump said in an interview with the Daily Caller published Tuesday, referring to Obama's decision to re-establish U.S. ties with Cuba.

"I think it's fine. I think it's fine, but we should have made a better deal," Trump added. " The concept of opening with Cuba is fine."

Russia Boosts Arms, Training for Leftist Latin Militaries

Moscow defense minister inks deals with Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua for joint exercises

BY: Bill Gertz
February 20, 2015

Russia agreed to provide military training for three leftist regimes in Latin America and increase military visits and exercises following a visit last week to the region by Moscow's Defense Minister Sergei Shoygu, Pentagon officials said.

Shoygu met with defense and military leaders in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua and signed several agreements on warship visits and military training during the visit, which ran from Feb. 11 to 14. It is not clear whether any new arms deals were completed during the visit.

Defense officials said the Russian leader is seeking bases in the region for strategic bomber flights that Shoygu recently promised would include flights over the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean.

How Russia arms America's southern neighbors

May 9, 2014

RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil -- Russia's push into Ukraine has put many on edge. But less known is that Russia is also strengthening its military links south of the Rio Grande and re-establishing itself as a power in the region.

Vladimir Putin has been strengthening military links here, and Russia is now the largest arms dealer to governments in Latin America, surpassing the United States.

Russia has even floated the possibility of building new military bases in Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua, and putting its warships permanently in the Caribbean.

In the midst of the Ukraine crisis, Russia's top diplomat Sergei Lavrov recently visited Cuba, Peru, Chile, and Nicaragua, where he announced that Russia would also pour money into the new Central American canal project. ..."

Russia Ramping Up Military Drills to Cold War Levels, NATO Says

Feb 5, 2016 - FoxNews.com

Russia has stepped up its military maneuvers to a level unseen since the height of the Cold War, according to a new report released by NATO Thursday.

Jens Stoltenberg, the alliance's secretary general and author of the report, noted that Moscow has conducted at least 18 large-scale exercises over the past three years, "some of which have involved more than 100,000 troops."

Those exercises included several simulated nuclear attacks against NATO allies and partner nations ..."

Trump accused of Putin favors with NATO criticism

By Kelley Beaucar Vlahos
FoxNews.com
March 25, 2016

Donald Trump once again is being accused of giving Vladimir Putin a helping hand, on the heels of the Republican presidential front-runner’s tough NATO criticism.

After the billionaire businessman criticized the alliance earlier this week as expensive and “obsolete,” his political foes noted that any pull-back from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, which was created in 1949, would be greeted as welcome news in Moscow.

“That would be a massive victory for Putin and a massive victory for ISIS,” his opponent, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, told Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor.” ...”

Here's Trump giving his support to the traitor-in-chief on his 2009 world apology tour...

TRUMP [on the Larry King Show (April 15, 2009), referring to the then newly elected communist president (Obama)]: "Well, I really like him. I think that he's working very hard. He's trying to rebuild our reputation throughout the world. I mean, we really have lost a lot of reputation in the world. The previous administration [GW Bush] was a total disaster, a total catastrophe."

Jeff Miller is a big do nothing RINO! He has allowed the VA to cover up all the corrupt practices and has not even tried to fire the guilty. He was a Boehner man, Paul Ryan too. He hasn’t made a decent decision in years.

I know. I’ve written him dozens of letters and made numerous phone calls. He is a loser, bigtime!

>>Trump’s unfamiliarity with foreign affairs as one of his biggest weaknesses in the race.

"It is improbable that Trump has thought long or deeply on the subject of NATO, but he has opened a genuine debate on it." http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2016/03/donald_trump_and_nato.html

Meh. Who needs NATO. What do they know about running the Oligarchic hotel bidness in Moscow anyhow?
