The Cold War lasting so long is due to neither side being dumb enough to fight the other. It is a lose-lose for both sides. Flexing their force against the US would be a very bad decision and not one the UN nor NATO would like.
I'm really confused by why you think Hillary wouldn't have done anything about ISIS. Trump's plan is him saying I know more than the generals and lets commit crimes that violate international law (seizing oil fields). What a great plan. We want Assad out because he attacked his own people with (I think) chemical weapons. We know removing him won't really solve much but he needs to go. They are creating a humanitarian crisis. We want to stop that. Putting our troops in would not be smart (cost, lives, time). Backing rebels is smart even though the outcome might not be what we want.
Okay wow. This is truly ridiculous. Show me proof. Show me anything that says Hillary just wants to play with ISIS.
Politifact (a very good source) made a nice comparison chart of the things Trump and Hillary have said. Trump has a huge number of lies and pants on fire (their rating system, if you're not familiar with them) while having very few truths. Hillary has a huge number of truths and mostly true while having few lies. I'd post it but I'm on mobile so you can find it yourself.
I'm not an idiot. Politicians lie. Trump lied a shit ton while Hillary lied a little bit. That's a big difference.
Healthcare is really complicated and Trump still does not have a clear plan on it. What he does have is bad.
Across state competition for insurers sounds great. It's not. Insurers have to tailor their plans for each state (sometimes they have to specifically plan it per county) and a lot of companies already operate in multiple states. It is hard, even for giant health insurance companies, to enter a state they are not already in. It requires a ton of money, time and negotiating with hospitals to operate in a new state. So an insurance company in Texas would not be able to all of a sudden offer coverage in Ohio.
There is a danger that goes with this as well. An insurance company might just offer a bare minimum package in another state which will attract young, healthy people. This will allow those companies to avoid making specific plans. This will cause two things. Existing coverage in states will be priced lower and cover less. The current health plans will soar in price due to sick people and less coverage. Ultimately this will cost a ton.
The savings account already exists.
His other plans are assuming he is going to follow Paul Ryan's plan. Which would be bad.
Demented optimist and idiot. Very fine line between those.
There are no current punishments because it is purposely ambitious. It also is following a long line of agreements and protocols that have been adopted. Those policies have been followed. I'm in a class where we have talked a lot about it. To someone from the outside, it makes no sense. If you actually learn about, you'll get it. They are thinking of adding punishments to force Trump to follow it. They also are thinking of adding something that lets the US states choose instead of Donald unilaterally saying no.
Getting international deals done is really hard. That's another reason no punishments were tacked on.
The US provides aide to developing countries so they can go green. They need help because growing nations need a lot of power. This is a small part of the overall budget so eliminating it won't help anyone. We are the world leader in climate change. We help lead these talks and agreements. That ends now.
We've already signed it. We cannot leave it for at least 4 years.
Well except the head of his EPA administration said climate change is bullshit. Trump is 70. He isn't changing his tune anytime soon.
