The world will be in danger if Republican nominee Donald Trump becomes president of the United States, the top United Nations human rights official said on Wednesday.

U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra'ad al Hussein cited Trump's views on vulnerable communities including minorities and his talk of authorising torture in interrogations, banned under international law, as "deeply unsettling and disturbing".

"If Donald Trump is elected on the basis of what he has said already - and unless that changes - I think it is without any doubt that he would be dangerous from an international point of view," Zeid told a news briefing in Geneva.

So Hillary blames Russia for influencing the election, but NOT the UN?

Just remember. Most of this man’s salary and upkeep is paid by the American taxpayer.

“Dangerous from an international point of view,”

TRANSLATION: Trump is an obstacle to Global Government.

When the people and organizations of politics I despise most begin to tell me someone is ‘dangerous’, I usually expect they mean dangerous only to themselves and their profitable gigs.

The fact that the UN is cautioned against elect him to me is the absolute 100% best endorsement he could have. That building in NYC should be bulldozed off into the water and all the delegates perp-walked to the airport for removal, frankly.

Is Trump trying to start a war with the Russians over Syria? Was Trump the one who was so weak that all of our enemies have been emboldened and empowered to take advantage of us?

“...he would be dangerous from an international point of view,”

Which makes Trump a true Outsider. And what will the UN do - Refuse our money? Move out?

All this speculation is just that ... speculation. Heck, Obama got the Nobel Peace Prize before even doing anything because of speculation.

[U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Zeid Ra’ad al Hussein]

Just judging by his name, I’m guessing he doesn’t give a damn about “rights” except those that foster and advance the Muslim takeover of the world.

Zeid Ra’ad al Hussein has effectively given Trump an endorsement. He is dangerous to Zeid Ra’ad al Hussein’s goals of expanding the caliphate.

So the UN is worried about Trump. Sounds like a good reason to elect him to me.

I believe if Trump campaigns on US leaving the UN and evicting them from US soil, he will win the Presidency.

Anyone with Twitter or communication with the campaign should forward this to them

(not to Trump, but prob Kellyanne, to run some internal polling first)
