I do not believe Trump (or anyone else) can fix the world.

However, people can make it worse than it otherwise would have been, which I think is true of Obama and would be true of Clinton as well.

I know it’s politics but saying you can fix the world is a bit much.

“The Swedes didn’t blow up EgyptAir. There, fixed the world for ya.”

You might want to qualify your statement by saying “ethnic Swedes, because with the number of Muzzies that Sweden has taken in recently, it could have indeed been done by “Swedes.” OTOH there are so many Muzzies closer to the area where the tragedy occurred that it’s unlikely the “Swedes” were involved.

Throughout history, there have been serious challenges to the survival of civilization, both manmade and natural causes. It ALWAYS happens that when the mega-structures of civilization collapse, there are pockets of survival where remnants of the previous civilization and memories that carry down survive. The global mess cannot survive. But, what can be saved? Nations and local entities with resourceful people, determination, good leadership, and the resources to be self sufficient.

Trump with his initiatives can provide leadership and some turning around of things. There will then be areas that pull through the chaos which is inevitable.

First step....keep people in the countries where they are, and begin stabilization. Trump seems to get it, if you listen to his priorities.

I can fix it, Hillary can’t ....

**********************************************

Especially since Hilly helped Obama mess a lot of it up in the first place. I think just having somebody as president who is not a liver-lily wuss like Obama or a criminal liar money grubber like Hilly will go a long way, regardless of actual actions that may have to be taken.

Excellent interview! It sure is refreshing not to hear all the political correctness.

That is actually so profound, that it should be part of everyday language so that people finally get what is happening.

These European nations need to understand that the “new world” model of multi-ethnic nations simply will not work for Europe because those nations were not created in that mold.

We were designed (and help through the blessing of geographic isolation) to take in different people and forge them into a new national identity based on unifying ideology and symbols that didn’t require you to be born here to become part of it.

European nations are constructions of centuries of common ethnic identity that just was a matter of fact for them. You can only really be part of it if you have some real blood ties to the nation. You cant take in a person from Syria or Ghana and make them “get” Swedish identity that can only come from being an actual ethnic member of that “tribe”.

Be careful of any man who claims or possesses the power to ‘fix’ the mess. Only Jesus will do that. Until then men will keep hammering the nails and further splinter the furniture.

Better more accurate phrasing is that I will make it better, shes gonna make it worse.

Only one person is going to fix this world and He hasn’t come back yet.

“Hmm. And they say trump talks on fourth grade level”

That is OK because everything else about him is Doctorial level or above.

Well said and I agree. At least Trump has a better chance of doing something useful towards salvaging what we can.

I would be happy if he were to begin fixing the US. He can start by rescinding each and every one of Il Douchebag’s Executive Orders on the afternoon of the inauguration. The next day, begin the planning of the dissolution of the EPA, the departments of Energy and Education. Begin a detailed analysis of the budget and start cutting, using the US Constitution as the justification for a much, much, much smaller federal government.

Everyone is clamoring for Newt to be VP? He's much more valuable asset as Chief of Staff. Trump needs mentoring and guidance on the ways of DC, legislation, protocols, etc.

Besides, Newt is too old.

Chief of Staff would be best for Newt, I agree.
