Ok, look - let me preface this. I may well be in over my head here. I'm a 21 yo Australian. But I really am interested in international affairs. So I do read about these things often - more than your average American, though that's not overly impressive, and I mostly focus on your foreign policy - although I do not live it. I would say I am fairly moderate and I try to be impartial. But obviously, as you should do with everything, take that with a grain of salt.

Never here was I saying confidently or without literally saying that I didn't really know, that Trump is worthless, or that Obama and the democrats are better than the Republicans. Mostly what I am basing this on, is the list of things to do with Russia (see the bestof post about the timeline, I can't post it, I will get banned), and some potential conflicts of interest that Trump reasonably may have. I never said Trump is definitely bad. I may have said some things that you may consider ignorant about Obama, and I apologise for that, but I think my point stands - as it should regardless who is president. Shouldn't there be a thorough investigation into conflicts of interest regardless which party a president belongs to or who they are? I mean, all I'm saying is, overall, I support Trump. And I know that there are many people out to get him. But this defensiveness about addressing some of these things - it seems worrying. I won't claim to know that much, which is why I'm conversing with you fellas. But I can think critically. I never meant to be insulting you and I never meant this to be binary - Republican or Democratic - I was just raising concerns about your current president. I mean, to some extent, how do the sins of your past president justify the potential sins of your new president? Why don't you guys support an inquiry, so you that you can most likely clear his name, or reveal something vital to US interests and security if not, and get Pence in, in that case? Obama might have been bad, I'm not disputing that, but why does it have to be a game of deflection and comparison?

Again, look, I'm on mobile, young, and Australian, and just genuinely curious. Some of you guys have given me some things to think about and consider. I really wouldn't say I'm a democrat leaning cuck in any sense; I read a whole lot and take biases into account where I can. But, I don't have any friends here in Australia who have any interest in US politics or international/geo-politics at all.

So it's always good to speak with you fellas. If any of this seems, uh, like it wasn't written as well as it could be. Well, I'm drinking beer on a boat. I'll try my best to respond, I might have to do it tomorrow....
