Trump Gets Schooled by Rand Paul in Just 4 Sentences John Thomas | December 25, 2015
Many, many people seem to love Donald Trump right now. Others cant stand to even look at him. One thing is for certain, he expresses strong opinions and is polarizing. However, just because he has made a lot of money, that may not mean that he understands certain things that he needs to understand to be the President that we need.
Take terrorism, for example.
Trump has been vocal about being tough on terrorists, on being willing to do the hard thing to punish the terrorists and make them fear us. He believes that will cause terrorists to leave us alone. Theres just one problem: according to Rand Paul, it wont work. See the picture below to follow what I mean: You see, Rand Paul understands that violating ethical guidelines like not killing the innocent (children) is not trivial. Think about it: killing children doesnt make us the good guys; it does just the opposite. It makes us despised.
And then there is the issue of doing what we said that we would do: honoring the Geneva convention.
Now, thats not to say that we shouldnt be tough against terrorism, but we need to step up and take some responsibility there. We need to arm ourselves as individuals and be ready
But do we really want a Federal government that will do whatever it takes to fight terrorists? Thats how we got an out of control NSA, isnt it? We need to make this battle about those who are doing the violence. Killing women and children doesnt do that; it just makes us the bad guy that they will fight against in revenge.

The drone operators are certainly not infallible. They make mistakes all the time and even attack the good guys once in a while.
