Trump is trampling on those things as well.

I agree that Trump is trampling on the LIE that we have the "moral high ground".
Just like all the anti-Trump "liberals" are now praising the FBI and CIA to the high heavens (because Trump is calling them out on their misdeeds).
Our country used those two agency's to do some of the most horrible and atrocious acts over the years. And in the time before Trump...the media and the "liberals" were no friends of these spy agencies.
But now? Suddenly they are the "Intelligence Community" and are above reproach.
What a bunch of hypocritical horseshit.
Anybody that knows modern history is aware of how the FBI has done horrible things here in the U.S. and the CIA has been a nightmare around the world.
Our country has NEVER really been "moral". It's been a fabrication to justify invading other country's, secretly overthrowing leaders, assassinations, corruption...and now even trying to rig an election for Hillary Clinton.
I think Trump is the most transparent President we've ever had in that regard. You don't have to guess what he thinks.
With polished fake politicians like President Obama you would get this measured, scripted smooth talk. And then you were left to wonder what this plastic person REALLY was doing behind the scenes.
With Trump...he will TWEET to you exactly what he is thinking and doing.
I like that.
EDIT: By the way...we don't "get to have" nuclear weapons because of some imaginary moral high ground. We have them because nobody can take them from us.
I would bet you that IF we magically told the UN to take a vote if they want us to keep our nuclear weapons...they would strip us of them by unanimous vote. lol
