Re: Worlds most powerful men

Trump is the Commander in Chief of the most powerful military in the world. He can't declare war only Congress can do that but he can tell the military to perform operations/actions which could lead to war. Lately Presidents have been willing to exercise this power.

But does that make him dangerous?

He's dangerous because he doesn't think before he opens his mouth. They need to ban him off Twitter.

Completely agree I do wonder what his diplomats think of the things he says.

I agree, I don't think Presidents and Prime Ministers should be allowed to spout on social media.

How would you know what is desired in a President ?
He is crass and has no charm but what else has he done?

He has just enforced Obamas red line over the use of chemical weapons .

He has recognised Jerusalem as Israels capital which four presidents have promised to do -including Obams but didnt .

After the smooth handsome Obama almost any President would look bad.

I don't understand why Israelis want Jerusalem as capital. Makes more sense to have a capital that isn't the focus of three major religions. It's a move of total self interest.

Re: Worlds most powerful men

Anyway in terms of power it's the power behind the throne that pulls the strings. Invisible individuals hold real power.
