The world is an unstable, often dangerous place. While I'm not paralyzed with fear I do admit that when I stop and think about how truly unqualified the current occupant of the White House is and how he is completely and totally unprepared for a real crisis I get more than a little concerned. It isn't just that trump is clueless and unqualified, it is that he has also surrounded himself with people who are also not qualified in their jobs to advise him, if he has bothered to fill the job at all.Legally drunk????

Then came October 1962 and he stared at the nuclear abyss and decided it wasn't worth it and traded Jupiter missiles in Turkey for Soviet missiles in Cuba. And, as a result, he punted the Monroe Doctrine into the trash can.
So, you never know. That's why the president never takes part in war games.CCT '77 & '78

So take you pick. Restraint sometimes is good. Othertimes you take the leash off the rottweiler. But you can't say if X happens Y is the automatic result. We're dealing with humans here, not Colossus.CCT '77 & '78
