35. He is willing
to sacrifice every man, woman, and child in our country, and the Middle East, in order to sate his bloated ego. We don't need a bigger military, we need more diplomacy, and to rethink the way we engage with the rest of the world. He refuses to consider any diplomatic solutions, because he refuses to compromise one single bit. He wants things his way, and will destroy this country to do it.

All he's thinking about is his delusion of being known as a great "war president", and he will mow down anybody who stands in the way. He has never been told no in his life about anything, never had to face the consequences of his actions, and refuses to start now. If the threat were truly as serious as he says, he would be rolling back the wealthy's tax cuts in order to pay for such a build up of forces. If this were truly a life and death kind of struggle, no sacrifice, including paying enough in taxes, and making his daughters serve, would be too much to ask.

As it is, this is all some dry drunk's diseased brain telling him what to do, and to hell with the ones who get hurt. Diplomacy would include a give and take, and for him, the only thing he knows is how to take.
