David Gergen is one of a few media people I listen to as many do because he always seems to show deeper insights in his analysis.
This Trump phenomena is terribly concerning to lots of people around the globe as well as in America.
Koreans back home may well be directly affected in many ways if Trump becomes the president of USA.
Hopefully and prayerfully South Korea is strong enough economically and militarily to deal with the possible surprises
this man may bring to them.
내가 한국에서 국민학교 중학교 다닐때 시중에 떠돌아 다니던 말이 불현듯 생각나는데 그것이,
"한국은 쏘련한테는 속아 망하고 미국한테는 믿어 망한다." 이었는데 이 Trump가 여러번씩 한국을 지목하는 말들으니
한국이 미국을 항상 믿는 꿈에서 깨어날때가 온것도 같습니다.
Berkeley 대학 전 교수 Chalmber의 "blowback"은 미국 외교정책의 비밀을 잘 설명하고 있습니다. 대체로 미국의 외교 국방정책은 펜타곤과 CIA에 의해서 결정이 되어 사정없는 국익위주의 정책을 수행하고 4-8년마다 들락날락하는 대통령은 이것을 민주와 인권등으로 포장하는 것으로 요약할수있습니다.
남한에 대한 미국의 안보 위협은 박정희 대통령 시절에 닉슨이 월남전에서 미국 군대를 철군 시킬때 한국군을 동원 월맹군을 막아줄 것을 박 대통령에게 요구하자 이를 거절합니다. 이 에 닉슨은 미군 철수로 위협합니다. 이후 박 대통령은 원 폭을 만들 기를 시작하고 자주국방을 강조 합니다. 철군 위협은 카터 정부에서도 계속 주장 했고
박 대통령은 원폭-자주국방을 계속해서 주장 합니다. 이러던 중 박 대통령의 암살이 일어 납니다.
Oscar de la Hoya details how he saw Donald Trump cheat at golf
By Ryan Ballengee
Boxing champion Oscar De La Hoya is an avid golfer, and he's one to play by the book -- something that will no doubt bring a smile to the faces at USGA headquarters.
Imagine, then, De La Hoya's shock when he played a few holes of golf in 2014 with presumptive Republican presidential nominee and golf real estate mogul Donald Trump at his Trump National Los Angeles course.
“I was teeing on the first hole and next thing I know here comes a golf cart. It’s Donald Trump: ‘Oscar, can I play with you?’," De La Hoya explained, saying he told Trump that it was his property, so of course.
The Golden Boy said Trump hit four balls off the first tee: The first found a water hazard, then pulled another left out of bounds, a third into the water and then a fourth into the bushes. According to De La Hoya, Trump said he was just warming up, although that's a generous two balls more than the typical two-off-the-first okie-dokie on the first tee.
After four balls, Trump still hadn't found a safe lie. However, since Trump went first, he hopped in his cart, went down to the middle of the fairway and said he'd found his ball right down Broadway.
Quoting Trump, De La Hoya recalled he said, “By the way, I found my first ball, it’s right here.”
“We’re like, ‘OK, yeah,’ we’re cracking up, not in front of his face,” De La Hoya continued.
On another hole, Trump's tee shot at a 170-yard par 3 went out of bounds. The boxer was sure of it. Again, Trump drove off in the cart first, went toward the green and said he found his ball.
“We get up there [to the green] and he’s like, ‘Oh, my ball’s right here!’ Three feet away. ‘And by the way, I’m going to pick it up, it’s a gimme,’” he said.
Obviously offended, De La Hoya isn't interested in voting for Trump.
He said, “I’m not [voting] for someone who cheats in golf.”
He clinched republican presidential candidacy. I hope all of his policies are lies. He wants South Korea, Japan and Germany pay 100% of US forces expense stationed in each country, or US forces will leave. I think that is a lie.
When Trump arrived at the political scenes, we thought he was really outrageous. We thought he was just a joke and we even laughed at him and his claims. However, as the days go by and the campaignes went along, his appearance and talks gradually become much less outrageous. The jokes became no more jokes. We started to believe what he said. In other words, we are being silently brain-washed.
Now, it is not because he actually became less outrageous but it's because we get used to it !! See, if you hear profanities all the time, after a while they become a part of normal conversation. We, human beings, adapt very fast, unknowingly and without the perception of the truth. This adaptation is what is dangerous to us and our nation. We may end up paying dearly to the consequences of our getting used to Trump's talks.
This Trump phenomena is terribly concerning to lots of people around the globe as well as in America.
Koreans back home may well be directly affected in many ways if Trump becomes the president of USA.
Hopefully and prayerfully South Korea is strong enough economically and militarily to deal with the possible surprises
this man may bring to them.
