He will not only become a laughingstock if he becomes president but also a danger to world peace. Will Americans elect a mentally challenged individual to solve their national and international problems? Maybe, yes, as people around the world are turning inwards as globalization is making a lot of folks fearful that their understanding of our complex world is inadequate, and a narrow-minded world view is preferable and manageable, makes sense, and is something to welcome and embrace with both arms. In a world of this nature, our vision does not extend beyond me and my family and, yes, my country right or wrong! The world no longer exists, and family does not extend to the family of human beings which is now a part of the world of fiction. To accept the fact that we all belong to the human family we will have to wait for aliens to attack our planet which is unlikely. Enter Donald Trump. With Brexit Donald Trump has been given a fillip for Americans to want to go the way of the British even though there are discordant voices within the UK who believe this is an act of regression. The US no doubt is an extremely rich and powerful nation and so it is an appealing idea to believe it is possible for Americans even in the twenty-first century to become insular and have a successful ending to what is now widely known as the American dream. His vision to eliminate enemies of the US anywhere in the world is a bad commentary on his memory as he appears to have completely forgotten 9/11 which teaches Americans how the enemy is lurking not only in some far away country but within the USA too. Has, Donald the duck, really forgotten or does he think with his low level of intelligence it is a problem which is no challenge for him? If so, he is obviously a relative of Donald Duck and not Superman. Other nations of lessor gods might wisely dismiss the idea of going it alone on first thought as it is unworkable. Will Britain, a great colonial power, be able to succeed on its own today? We will have to wait and see what happens in future; meanwhile, the mood is ripe for Donald Trump to be crowned the next American president! A great number of outstanding intellectuals around the word appear exhausted, and have stopped arguing intelligently. They have given up and appear already to see Donald Trump sitting comfortably in the presidential chair, signing away international documents which have a dark and menacing lining. When Donald Trump has finished with the presidential chair he might well make Monica Lewinsky resemble a nun and Bill Clinton a priest. President George Bush Jr created a disaster for the US economy, and we can expect Donald Trump to do it again. His hateful and fiery opinions might well set half the world aflame which no number of firefighters will be able to extinguish effectively. As we live in an inter-connected world his stupid actions will have a serious impact in our country too. His piece meal solutions which disregards the complexity and inter-connectivity of the hi-tech world in which we live today is dangerous, something he is unable to comprehend and which might well boomerang on the USA. Americans need to actively work for peace by denouncing and renouncing Donald Trump for president. Either that or get ready to live in hell on Earth.
