“We want to deter, avoid and prevent conflict through our unquestioned military strength,” Trump declared of his Democratic opponent.

Trump said that, he would give military leaders 30 days to formulate a plan to defeat the group, commonly known as ISIS. He would also ask the joint chiefs of staff to conduct a review of the nation’s cyber defenses to determine all vulnerabilities.

Trump rival Hillary Clinton, said that, “They know they can count on me to be the kind of commander in chief who will protect our country and our troops, and they know they cannot count on Donald Trump.” “They view him as a danger and a risk,” she said.

“She’s trigger-happy and very unstable,” the New York billionaire said.

GOP. Rep Tom Cole of Oklahoma, a high-level member of the Appropriations Committee, said that, “Obviously it’s not something that would get through this Congress, so that’s something we’d have to look at the election next year. But I agree with him in terms of lifting the sequester on defense, he’s absolutely correct about that.”

“I do believe that Donald Trump is growing in his understanding of these issues and I think that he’s beginning to get more and more people around him that have a depth of understanding as to the complexities and I’m watching this evolve,” Bob Corker, the Republican chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said.
