A Loose Cannon

Hellery Clinton is now calling Donald Trump "a loose cannon." I suspect that anyone who has been awake for the last ten months would agree with this micro-aggression ... however quite a few do not hold it against him. Matter of fact, some, like myself, think that such an artillery piece rolling around in the White House would keep many of the United States's antagonists up at night ... not knowing what President Trump might do next.

Yes, some of the other loose cannons in the world might try to out-Trump Trump ... setting up possible dangerous confrontations. But Iran's Khamenei, Syria's Assad, North Korea's Kim Jong-un, and Russia's Putin have been saber-rattling enough as it is. I suspect that a lot of their bluster is because of the shrinking violet that we currently have ensconced at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. But much as Obummer has tried to emasculate the United States, we are still a formidable military might ... and I doubt if any of these martinets would be willing to truly test us.

That leaves China. A great deal of China's economic future is dependent on its chief customer's continued buying spree ... and that chief customer is us. In a very obvious way, if China were to start hostilities with the United States, it would be cutting off its fire-breathing snout to spite its dragon face. So I suspect that China may cross the street to avoid any real confrontation with Trump ... at least for his tenure.

So ... like so many of Hellery's campaign bombasts ... this latest fusillade has likely misfired.
