To pay for this and for building up all the armed forces to wartime levels, he would cut domestic spending deeply. This included changing entitlements to baby boomers such as Social Security and Medicare.

Does not sound to me like that is a viable plan to win the nomination on any level.
I understand that you do not feel his plan to fight ISIS is one that will secure the nomination.

I am curious, POLITICS ASIDE, what your plan might be to fight ISIS.

That is a serious question I am asking. From what I read, and you left out all of his REASONS for making that statement, the coalition is not going to do it, our bombing is ineffectual because of lack of troops on the ground, and ISIS seems t advance each week.

Of course, if you feel they pose no threat to our mainline, NOR OUR ALLIES, then it is a different story. If we are simply turning our back on the world, retreating into some kind of isolation, trusting the entire world to just allow us to live in peace, then his ideas are not what we shoul consider.
