Immigrants issue. American citizens will be kicked out. Families torn apart.

Waging wars on other countries will bring economic instability to the region, europe gets even more refugees, economic crisis deepens and social funds run dry. The US will make political enemies with the callous disregard for the world economy and racist immigrant policies. Interest rates may go up for the US aswell wich will result in higher taxes for US citizens.

Just those two are enough for you to understand that if that person gets elected the world will be in for an upheavel of trouble. Do we really need more crisis?


1. Trump can't kick out citizens, even if he says he will. We're talking about a man that speaks his mind. He might change the law to get rid of naturalization, but anyone already a citizen is a citizen. 

 

2. Who did he declare war on? And again, a man who speaks his mind and acts on council isn't going to go to war just because he said so. 


He lacks any sense of tact, which could be extremely problematic in both foreign and domestic policy. In foreign policy, he would likely say a lot of really stupid things and piss a lot of people off. Hell, saying stupid things is pretty much guaranteed from him. Whether or not he would have the power to push the country into war with everybody, its hard to imagine that he would improve foreign relations.

As for domestic policy, the country is already struggling quite a bit with the partisan divide and his radical viewpoints and again, lack of tact, seems like it would only magnify the issue, although it may be made worse by infighting within the republican party. Its difficult to imagine much in the way of positive change being brought forth with Trump as president.

Overall, while the power of the President is limited, Trump seems to be as close to a nightmare scenario as you can get.
