Trump Presidency Makes List of Top 10 Global Risks
The Economist magazine on Wednesday named a potential Donald Trump presidency as one of its top 10 global risks.
“In the event of a Trump victory, his hostile attitude to free trade, and alienation of China and Mexico in particular, could escalate rapidly into a trade war — and at least scupper the Trans-Pacific Partnership [TPP] between the U.S. and 11 other American and Asian states signed in February 2016,” the Economist Intelligence Unit wrote in its assessment.
“His militaristic tendencies towards the Middle East (and ban on all Muslim travel to the U.S.) would be a potent recruitment tool for jihadi groups, increasing their threat both within the region and beyond,” it added.

In fact, the level of the threat he poses is weighed equally to the rise of jihadi terrorism.

I like The Economist, although it does tend to be dismal.

Trump doesn't have cooties. He has people who have cooties for him.

I agree.
This is just more blatant anti-Trump bullshit.
A Cruz Presidency would be much worse than a Trump Presidency.
