I am still not sure what are Donald Trumps foreign policy positions are .

1) ON Syria/ISIS . All he as said is that he will hit them very very hard. okay going from that , does it mean a) he plans on putting 100K US troop on the ground and engage in an all-out war. b) or just put 100's of drones in the Air and just start bombing shit.

How does he plan on bringing on board our Allies like Jordan and Iraqi government on our side with this plan?

2) What is his plan regarding South China Sea. Does he plan on confronting the Chinese government . From what I have heard he wants to bring back troops from South Korea and Japan.

3) What are his plans for Ukraine civil war and Russian Aggression?

4) Finally, I am trying to imagine what would Trump do if he was the president during the Cuban missile crisis. Would he be able to enforce the blockade? Does he understand the the MAD doctrine ?

so many questions .

do YOU understand the MAD doctrine?

it only works if your enemy believes that you will use nuclear weapons. If they don't think you will use nukes, than the threat of mutually assured destruction isn't a real threat, so MAD doesn't work.

purely in terms of MAD, it is actually good that everyone thinks that trump is eager to launch the nukes.

He doesn't seem to understand NATO though. He made every security expert shit their pants by stating he wouldn't necessarily defend NATO countries.

It makes me question his understanding of the strategic value of unconditional retaliation, which underpins MAD.

(Alternatively, he understands, but doesn't care if Europe gets stomped by Russia.)
