A Roadmap: National Security Under President Donald Trump
The Observer ^ | 11/09/16 | John R. Schindler

Posted on 11/09/2016 7:50:26 AM PST by AdmSmith

Dear President-Elect Trump: Congratulations on a winning a hard-fought campaign. I haven’t always been your biggest fan (I wasn’t your opponent’s either) but you will soon enter the Oval Office facing more diverse security challenges, in more corners of the globe, than perhaps any of your predecessors. You’ll need help.

The world you’re about to encounter as our commander-in-chief is more dangerous and discombobulated than any new president has encountered in many decades. Your bumbling predecessor hasn’t exactly done you many favors either. Let’s walk through some must-dos, with a healthy dose of geopolitical reality.

See link for: Russia, Europe/NATO/, ISIS, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, China/North Korea, Border Security, U.S. Military, U.S. Intelligence and Cybersecurity

You have a big job ahead of you as commander-in-chief. Your natural instincts are pugnacious and secretive. Avoid those as commander-in-chief. Listen to our national security professionals. Many Americans, including those who didn’t vote for you, care deeply about our national security. Assemble a top team there, including voices from across the ideological spectrum. Obama made national security as partisan as everything else he touched. Don’t repeat that mistake. The stakes today are too high.

President Trump:

I fully realize that we have enemies around the globe, and that Obama & Shrillary have helped them harm the USA.

However, I want to point out that we have ‘enemies within’.

The current voter rolls need to be frozen & abandoned & archived for posterity, but NEVER used again. Used ONLY as reference material to prosecute counties which are not playing fair with American voters.

A Federal voter ID law needs to be passed as soon as you are in office. Then, starting Feb 1, 2017 & thru July 4, 2017, ALL eligible voters in the USA need to re-register——and only be allowed to register at their COUNTY offices or at mobile voting vans run by the individual counties. No strolling people with clipboards at the local mall who get paid for every signature they can ‘register’.

IF the Feds pay counties PER VOTER on the ROLLS to help defray the costs of running elections, then continue to pay for every ELIGIBLE voter-—and fine any county that has a non-eligible voter in their paperwork. Make that fine about $5000 per voter—or even higher. There has to be a penalty for counties that have hundreds of DEAD people on the rolls, and even have many persons who are OVER the age of 110 on their current rolls. This is just plain FRAUD & it must stop immediately.

ONLY American citizens should be voting. WE do NOT vote in their home country-—they should NOT be contaminating the vote in this country.

Please implement this program immediately. Thank You.

Maybe stating the obvious: Pence will have much more of an influence on Trump’s decisions and actions than Biden had on Obama.

BTW, why no hints or advice specifically on Saudi Arabia or the Gulf states in that article?

Are they insignificant? Will or should they remain Corporations, Business Centers and Money Making Machines, no matter how they channel their dosh, like Clinton Foundation, to ‘parent companies’?
