Comment: To a degree, all politicians lie, it is a fact of life.  Obama and Hillary are both kind of middle of the pack when it comes to lying.  Trump has taken it to a whole new level, so no, it wasn't a lose/lose situation.  The chance of Hillary starting a war because she conducted foreign policy via twitter is about zero.  On the other hand, there is a pretty good chance that Trump's constant barrage of insults aimed at N. Korea will eventually lead them into believing we are going to attack them, and them attacking first in self defense.
