the honest answer is no one really knows what will happen but it will definitely be bad. however it will be bad in a way that's completely unpredictable and entertaining. because of this poli. sci. types act aghast at the prospect of him winning but deep down inside they sort of want him to win just to see the fantastic show. kind of like how people sort of wish a nuclear war or other apocalypse scenario breaks out.

anyways once it's said and done it'd probably be about on-par with the bush administration in terms of being bad. international relations would go down the toilet pretty quickly, lots of executive branches would be packed to the gills with grifters, political dialogue would be poisoned even further which would actually be fairly impressive, supreme court would swing so hard right reagan's corpse would achieve an eternal boner, fully politicizing all enforcement branches (CIA, FBI, NSA) against political opponents, etc. however if we do i don't think we as a country will have an excuse this time. the bush admin at least had that whole 'banality of evil' thing going on but there's no valid excuse for electing trump.

electing trump would be the 'sticking your dick in crazy knowing full-well you're doing it' of political elections. don't stick your dick in crazy.

this describes how I feel exactly

I think if the GOP nominates him they are shooting themselves in the foot and handing the election to the Dems but if Trump wins then lmao

I think there's a reasonable chance he would lead us into a nuclear war or at least a few bombs dropped, various humanitarian crises; it's not good. On the other hand though it could be fun to watch and I don't care for Hillary either, so what the hell why not. It would at least be entertaining.

ehhh idk what's a reasonable chance? I don't think nuclear war would be very likely.

What would be more likely is some phenomenally bad foreign policy leading to ever more poo poo in the ME (I guess Israel could Samson option bc they are assholes) or an inability to mediate between Pakistan + India causing some sort of conflict.

My gut tells me he's just the kind of bombastic idiot that could piss people off enough to do something really crazy. Like he'd tell the Indian PM to get hosed or say something really racist. The kind of abrasiveness that's great in business but not so much in international diplomacy. It'd still be less likely to happen than not.

Once Trump is done, the rest will just get crazier and crazier.

He's still pretty much the only Republican saying he'd deal with Russia and China with words/"business deals" instead of going right into how we need a bigger army and fleet.

He still talks about how we need a bigger army, but not any time someone brings up any of the rival nuclear powers.

I think Trump will be such a great President after his two terms are up he will go on a World Tour where other countries invite him to be President for a while. He will have a group of groupies called "Trumpers" who move from country to country with him living under never ending Trump rule.
