At one point, the moderator asked Trump about Trump's previous pledge to target and kill the wives and children of terrorist suspects. Trump refused to disavow that pledge, and essentially reaffirmed it. People applauded. Trump EXPLICITLY said he would force his generals to carry out war crimes against civilians and his fans cheered. This is what I'm talking about. "Intelligent and decent people"? Come on. This is decent? This is intelligent? If we lived in a good and moral country, it would be headline news that a frontrunning presidential candidate just promised on national TV to assassinate women and children. Every news channel would lead with it, and it would be the end of his campaign.

how long did it take Japan to surrender after we let them know how serious we were about ending the fighting in WW2?...do you understand how many women and children died?...but it was a necessary evil...something that had to be done...for the good of the world.....and the United States...now I'm not saying that Trump's thoughts and words on what he would do are in anyway as severe as the acts of August 1945, BUT.....our enemies feared and respected us for decades...we are half-assed fighting our enemies and they know it...we need to dominate ISIS and anybody else that screws with us...then come home...they will stop what they are doing...they will cease and desist...THAT is what he is saying...quit fricking around and get the shite done and over with...dragging it out and trying to fight them by OUR rules is NOT going to work...see Vietnam.
