I'll start with the following quote: """ Himmler - "Reduce Deaths at all Costs" Heinrich Himmler, chief of the Concentration Camps issued orders on December 28, 1942, that "The death rate in the concentration camps must be reduced at all costs" (Reitlinger, "The Final Solution"). The camps had been hit with a deadly typhus epidemic that spread by fleas and body lice. Stomach pain, high fever, emaciation and death can quickly follow. All of the camps were factories and the loss of workers was hurting war production. Inspector of the camps, Richard Glucks responded to Himmler's order on January 20, 1943, "Every means will be used to lower the death rates" (Nuremberg Tribunal Document No. 1523)

> Trump will pull back on the military interventions that it seems like many people don't even realize we're currently participating in. This directly contradicts what he has said he would do [1],[2]. Best case is we are much more involved in Syria/Iraq by this time next year. Worst case? War with Iran? Proxy war with Russia? Clinton would have been status quo, I give you that for sure. For Silicon Valley, (and HN by proxy I suppose) Trump immigration policy will be a problem. I think he will prevent/discourage the best and brightest from around the world to come here, work, and bring substantial benefit to our economy (rather than the economy of their homeland).

Trump literally said he would "bomb the shit out of [ISIS]." You don't have to take my word for it. [this video] He also has requested lists of employees at state agencies who have worked on climate change and gender equality. I really don't know where you're getting this image of him from.

This is fulfilling an election promise to "bomb the shit out of them". [this video] Bright lights, big noises, it plays well to some of his electorate.
