You do realize the so called Trump foreign policy is not based on any political reality but is a tailored marketing message mainly aimed at uneducated and fearing populace. It's quality is similar to the snakeoil commercials which sell instant weight loss - i.e. promises to solve your problem exactly like you want to. The downside is the marketing message is not based on no other reality or craft except that of getting the sale done. The presidential election is even better than a sale - there is no way to return the vote once the political reality after elections does not match with that which was promised.
I'm not taking a stance on the content of Trump's message (not in the US, not really my business). That said he is obviously a fantastic salesman.
- chvid 11y agoIf you compare the marketing/spin apparatus of Clinton, Obama and Trump; I am not sure that you will find that Trump has the largest. The original comment though was intended more as a snarky hint at the current administration rather than a praise for the policies of Trump.
