I don't think Trump knows everything but I think what makes him a better candidate than the rest is that I have more confidence in him to surround himself with people that will make a difference. The best leaders I have know in my life may not know everything but put people in positions to make his or her company successful.
Lets also be clear there is no way in hell I would vote for Bernie and or Hillary. Kasich has no chance to win and I don't like Ted Cruz. I am not saying he is the best candidate ever or anything but look at what is out there. It is a mess.
I agree with the assertion that good leaders surround themselves with good people, but with whom he has surrounded himself with
thus far, doesn't bear that out. That foreign policy team he announced is shaky at best and laden with controversial opinions. that strike at the heart of strategic alliances that have kept the world pretty stable for 75 years. Whether we or the rest of the world wants to admit it, the United States and its commitment to freedom and human rights, and the ability to back that commitment up with force or the credible threat of force, is what keeps skirmishes small, and reigns in the territorial ambitions of would be aggressors. One only has to look at what has happened to world stability as the BHO capitulation and apology tour has progressed....the loss in credibility of American power, drawing lines in the sand and then refusing to do anything, the rise of ISIS right under our noses. etc etc. A Trump election may be worse, in the opposite extreme. Suddenly, allies that have long counted on us, can no longer depend on our support and strike out on their own, and that may not be in American interests. Worse, everything points to Trump being a loose cannon....and it should be pretty obvious that he doesn't take to criticism very well. The world is pretty nervous about his prospects as President, and it's not good when things get jittery.
All of this is speculation, of course, because all signs point to Trump losing by a landslide to whoever wins the Democratic nod.
