You have to look at it from the practical point of view.

• Donald Trump as President can only do what the President of the US, or POTUS can do. He cannot do what the Congress is mandated to do. So, while he will certainly lobby the Congress to implement some of his policies, he cannot do it without the concurrence off the Congress. So, what you state as "his policies" are not as relevant as how many of his policies the Congress drafts into bills and agrees to pass into laws.
• A big chunk of Pentagon's budget is discretionary. Therefore, all this going around and policing the world might not completely cease. More here: http://theweek.com/articles/612883/audit-pentagon
• Yes, Trump's policies, if implemented, will hurt India and PRC. He will put some restrictions, if not all that he threatened. I am assuming the Congress will implement some of his policies.
• Hillary Clinton, at least might not be so harsh on outsourcing, but she might use diplomatic pressure on India to, for example, buy more American stuff or threaten to, for example, hike VISA fees. There are other possibilities too.
• What I am worried about is how much can Hillary influence local politics in India. It is a good thing that Modi has tightened the screws on Ford Foundation, but he himself appears to be beholden to Morgan Stanley. So, one needs to see how much leverage Hillary has on Morgan Stanley.

I am not as much worried about economics then about future potous encourging people to screw indian on relgious,caste,terrorism issue

On this count Hilary may encourage people would surely raise this point against india.

While trump would be more focusing on trade he wont encourage on above points except that related to religious conservation .

Infact he would encourage indians to take hard stand against Chinese

Diplomacy is key to relation with Russia, but if Trump thinks he can let go off the pedal wrt Russia, he's wrong because that would automatically mean that America's supremacy will be challenged. Unfortunately that's reality for America.
Geography dictates that America will have to maintain its "containment" strategy to be able to counter Europe, Russia, China etc.


And America can lose primacy in both regions.

What if russia-us under trumps agree on that us/nto/europe wont fu@k in central asian states where russia wants its sphere of influence while russia wont F@@k in west.

After all russia has onlt problem with west/europe f@@king in russia speher of influence in east europe/central asian states and russian bases in middle east/sriya

He doesn't seem to have understood what's happening in the ME and EU. This instability in the ME and migration to Europe is to the benefit of the US.

Seriously i donot get this how come migration of muslims of middel east region would help west/america ???

If america/erupoe wanted wanted cheap labour they could have easily gotten from india

or america wanted to create weak europe ?????

@pmaitra

american political rallies or convention whatever they calls it , is like some sort of combination of rock concert and mtv awards and some sports match ,

person after person gives 5 mins speeches full of passion and people cheering every 5 mins and rock music at background ,

and fake smiles ,

and at india , political rallies are like aggressive morcha and thousands of people attending mostly men and shouting slogans ,

america is all about marketing presentations ,

india should learn marketing from them .

Ok I heard Hillary speech today morning.

I think she is giving too much preference to Donald Trump in her speech. It tells about the situation more than she lets on.

Delegates face death threats from Trump supporters
At the Republican National Committee’s spring meeting, delegates describe vicious missives demanding they support the GOP front-runner.

By Eli Stokols and Kyle Cheney
04/22/16

First it was an email warning Steve House, the Colorado GOP chairman, to hide his family members and “pray you make it to Cleveland.” Then there was the angry man who called his cellphone and told him to put a gun down his throat.
“He said, ‘I’ll call back in two minutes, and if you’re still there, I’ll come over and help you,’” House recalled.

Exactly my thoughts. That she is constantly referring to Trump means she is scared of him.

Obama's brother says he's voting for Trump in November

President Barack Obama's half-brother, Malik Obama, says he will vote for Republican nominee Donald Trump in the U.S. election in November because he likes the candidate and he is unhappy with his brother's leadership.

Malik, who is in his 50s, told Reuters by phone from Obama's ancestral home of Kogelo in western Kenya that he supports Trump's policies, especially his focus on security.

"He appeals to me and also I think that he is down to earth and he speaks from the heart and he is not trying to be politically correct. He's just straight-forward," he said.

Malik, a U.S. citizen, has lived in Washington since 1985 where he worked with various firms before becoming an independent financial consultant.

Trump's stance against Muslims coming in to the United States was understandable even to Muslims like himself, Malik said.

"I'm a Muslim, of course, but you can't have people going around just shooting people and killing people just in the name of Islam," he said.

He criticized President Obama's record in the White House saying he had not done much for the American people and his extended family despite the high expectations that accompanied his election in 2008, both in the United States and Kenya.

The two men appear to have drifted apart but were previously close. Malik has visited the president in the Oval office and was also best man at Barack's wedding.

Obama's election created much excitement in Kenya especially in Kogelo village where their father was born before going to study at the University of Hawaii.

Obama visited Nairobi, in the first ever trip by a sitting U.S. president to the East African nation last July, and promised to visit more often when he leaves office.

Malik defended his right to criticize his brother, citing freedom of expression.

"To each his own. I speak my mind and I'm not going to be put in a box just because my brother is the President of the United States," Malik said.

Bossman, if you don't mind, I shall reserve my comments on that issue.

Why secrecy?

I am surprised at you support to Trump. All people like you hate Trump and think that he is blot on humanity.

Guess life is strange. Leftist in India turns into RW in US.

You know Jews always give a warning shot/trailer of things to come.
In the recently released Independence Day: Resurgence, Jew Emmerich has portrayed the American President as a woman.
So, you know whom the Jews of Hollywood are supporting this election.
More reason for white christian America to vote for Trump.

Interestingly he also directed and produced that destruction-porn movie (most of his movies are of that genre) "2012" where his fantasies of worldwide destruction were potrayed.
This movie was filmed starting July 2008 and released in 2009.
And the president was black in the movie.

I don't think so.
If america moves out of, say Iraq (i.e. including removal of puppets) then a vaccuum will be created which will get filled by another great power.
This may create a domino-effect and allies may lose confidence and before you know it amerika (if it can survive in one piece) will be relegated to the NW corner of the map.

Seriously i donot get this how come migration of muslims of middel east region would help west/america ???

If america/erupoe wanted wanted cheap labour they could have easily gotten from india

or america wanted to create weak europe ?????

Yes, America wants a weak/divided europe. That is why they insisted that twin brother UK stay on inside the EU as a mole.
They want to prevent development of powers in the europe region, be it germania or rossiya.
And they especially want to prevent the link up of germany and russia. Hence their choice for disturbances in UKR (and in broader EU) rather than CAsian states . They would rather that Russia and China team up than Russia and Germany (which is russia's natural choice.)
