During a New Hampshire rally Monday morning, the Republican frontrunner briefly spoke about his belief that the United States imposes its own version of Western democracy upon cultures that don’t necessarily want it.
Citing failed interventions in Libya and Iraq, Trump suggested it has been futile to try to export “freedom” to Muslim countries.
“I saw somebody say ‘We want it over there where the women don’t have to wear the you-know-what,’” Trump told the crowd, wiping his hand in front of his face to mimic the look of a burqa.
“And then I saw women interviewed,” he continued. “They said, ‘We want to wear them, we’ve worn them for thousands of years. Why would anyone tell us not to?’ They want to!
“Fact is, it’s easier,” Trump said. “You don’t have to put on makeup. Look how beautiful everyone looks. Wouldn’t it be easier? Right? Wouldn’t that be easy?” The Daily Beast

L’moshol, if a frum Yid tries to impose Yiddishkeit on a Yid who isn’t frum he will surely not succeed in being mekarev him. So it is with America’s overly zealous push to impose democracy on other countries. It doesn’t matter if it’s the correct system, forcing your beliefs on others is not the correct way. Trump is right.
Maybe I’ll start wearing one so I don’t need to shave or brush my hair. Brilliant! Thanks, Donald!
