So, is Trump going to say to Obama "YOU'RE FIRED"?

Seriously, Trump has the money to investigate Obama. So, if he has "people who can't believe what they're finding", how about if he publishes the findings? Otherwise, it's just more hearsay.

Otherwise, based on this interview, Trump just isn't right to be president.

You don't win wars from 50,000 feet, and you don't affect regime change in a region with a tradition of corrupt tribalism without having the background muscle present to at least prop up a puppet government. And you have to hit hard, no pussy footin' around a la Obama. If we were going to be involved in Libya, it should not be without a clear mandate for regime change and the primary target should have been Khadhaffi. "When you strike at a king, you have to kill him".

This is not to say that "King George" should have engaged us in a war run on the cheap based on a personal grudge over Saddam being behind an assassination attempt on George senior while visiting an Arabian Gulf country. You have to pick your battles, and Bush forgot all about the one already going on in Afghanistan.

While I agree with Trump that that we have become an international laughingstock, Trump creeps me out with that statement combined with "to the victor belongs the spoils", he sounds like Hitler without the shouting before Adolph seized power - when the German people were squeezed and humiliated by defeat and war reparations during the depression.

We should have enough oil extraction capability of our own oil to hold down prices while seeking out cost effective alternative energies with the Energy infrastructure in place first before discontinuing oil usage - not shoveling our wealth to countries which hate us nor mug other nations for their oil a la WWII Japan.
