I think reasonable people, political pundits, journalists, wall street unde

underestimate just how many people may think they want a bully as president - someone who is going to act like Trump did last night - when interacting with other countries. They think they want someone who is going to tell other countries "You're Wrong" and walk away. They think they want the guy who tough on those he does business with because they think he will be tough on other countries and stiff them if they try to stiff us. They think they want the US to make other countries pay for our military protection. They think they want someone who uses loopholes or force or bankruptcy to get our of bad business deal because they think they want the president to do that with other countries.

I think there are a lot of people who think they don't want a diplomat, they want a strongman/bully to be our president and Trump acts like he is that - he acted like that last night, all night.
