Bin Laden planned 9/11 and destroyed the World Trade Center. More than three thousand people died, and many are still suffering to this day. Yet, the country came together.
I have my own opinion regarding the danger that Trump poses to our country. And its a very ugly vision.
But let me stop right here. Rather than stating my belief of what a Trump presidency would result in, Id like to hear your opinion.
So heres my question. Would/could a Donald Trump presidency damage America more than Osama Bin Laden ever dreamed of?
(Yes, I know. No one has ever raised this kind of question about an American presidential nominee. And the DU judges could decide to delete this post. 9/11 is still a horrible, open sore for many of us. But if the judges don't delete this, I'd like to hear your opinion.)

And without psychoanalyzing Trump, the impulsiveness he's shown indicates that this is not someone who should be in a position to "push the button."

(8,146 posts)why does anyone think 911 didn't butter their muffins?
the Donald is the least of our problems, if for example, FDR was murdered cuz he not fascistic enough,to justify nuking Japan. Or the CIA killed the pope JP1 cuz he not rightwing enough. Or JFK. Malcolm X, john Lennon?
(btw, less then 3000 people died on 911. the planes were near empty, and the WTC parking garages was quieter then anyone had ever seen that particular morning.)
The same MSM that gave us the Adolph are giving us trump and the 911 fiction...

(8,146 posts)I think...my gist is that our world is in big trouble, and it wasn't the poor/ powerless who did the nasty. One time, a reegan presidency was a ridiculousy idea (only 6 years after Nixon impeached for crimes against USA), not to mention a joker like junyer bush or mr trump. The mass merdia tries to say we the people are dingbats, who vote like zombies and only care when our LIFESTYLES are affected. Ergo the Donald. In the early 30's, the media promoted and protected the Adolph, and ...he actually was elected by a slim majority! the ruling class was happy, and ...well the hushtory is long and forgotten. They are playing games with us (they still call it 'the great game'! lol) and we will lose again unless we go to total war with them. They= the enemy! And the Donald is just a wild card in their stacked deck...like the Adolph was way back when...
the Ronald I mean...
