They have the ability to order your children to die, to order the deaths of many other people. Maybe YOU don't think you should be able to trust someone like that, but... maybe that explains why we have the political leaders we have. People don't expect much from them. Even the ones I think are dishonest, sneaky bastards have, at least, some concern for public opinion. So we can trust them not to do something unbelievably stupid. I don't trust Trump to not shoot himself in the foot. I hope that those surrounding him will crawl out of their safe little hidey-holes and stop him if he decides he wants to nuke N. Korea.
