Reading what Trump says is actually worse than listening to what he says

I was reading the Trump Town Hall comments.  Read the below and try to tell me what Trump actually believes on nuclear proliferation.  It's like he is a drunk crazy person from North Philadelphia:

COOPER:  Let's talk about nuclear issues because you talked about this in a really interesting article in The New York Times.

TRUMP:  One of the very, very big issues.  I think maybe the biggest issue of our time.

COOPER:  That's what you said to The New York Times.  You said you worried about the proliferation of nuclear weapons…

TRUMP:  Right.

COOPER:  … the most.  You also said, though, that you might support Japan and South Korea developing nuclear weapons of their own.  Isn't that completely contradictory?

TRUMP:  No, not at all.  Look, you have North Korea has nuclear weapons.  And he doesn't have a carrier yet but he has got nuclear weapons.  He soon will have.  We don't want to pull the trigger.  We're just - you know, we have a president, frankly, that doesn't - nobody is afraid of our president.  Nobody respects our president.
You take a look at what's going on throughout the world.  It's not the country that it was.

COOPER:  But if you're concerned about proliferation, letting other countries get nuclear weapons, isn't that proliferation?

TRUMP:  No, no.  We owe $19 $trillion, we have another $2 trillion because of the very, very bad omnibus budget that was just signed.  It's a disgrace, which gives everything that Obama wanted.  We get nothing.  They get everything.
So that's going to be $21 trillion.  We are supporting nations now, militarily, we are supporting nations like Saudi Arabia which was making during the good oil days which was a year ago, now they're making less but still a lot, $1 billion a day.
We are supporting them, militarily, and pay us a fraction, a fraction of what they should be paying us and of the cost.  We are supporting Japan.  Most people didn't even know that.  Most people didn't know that we are taking care of Japan's military needs.  We're supporting…
(CROSSTALK)

TRUMP:  Excuse me, excuse me, we're supporting Germany.  We're supporting South Korea.  I order thousands of television sets because I am in the real estate business, you know, in my other life, OK.

COOPER:  It has been a U.S. policy for decades to prevent Japan from getting a nuclear weapon.

TRUMP:  That might be policy, but maybe…

COOPER:  South Korea as well.

TRUMP:  Can I be honest are you?  Maybe it's going to have to be time to change, because so many people, you have Pakistan has it, you have China has it.  You have so many other countries are now having it…

COOPER:  So some proliferation is OK?

TRUMP:  No, no, not proliferation.  I hate nuclear more than any.  My uncle was a professor was at MIT, used to (AUDIO GAP) nuclear, he used to tell me about the problem.

COOPER:  But that's contradictory about Japan and South Korea.

TRUMP:  (AUDIO GAP) Iran is going to have it very - within…

COOPER:  But that's proliferation.

TRUMP:  Excuse me, one of the dumbest I've ever seen signed ever, ever, ever by anybody, Iran is going to have it within 10 years.  Iran is going to have it.  I thought it was a very good interview in The New York Times.

COOPER:  So you have no problem with Japan and South Korea having…

TRUMP:  I thought…
(CROSSTALK)

COOPER:  … nuclear weapons.

TRUMP:  At some point we have to say, you know what, we're better off if Japan protects itself against this maniac in North Korea, we're better off, frankly, if South Korea is going to start to protect itself, we have…

COOPER:  Saudi Arabia, nuclear weapons?

TRUMP:  Saudi Arabia, absolutely.

COOPER:  You would be fine with them having nuclear weapons?

TRUMP:  No, not nuclear weapons, but they have to protect themselves or they have to pay us.
Here's the thing, with Japan, they have to pay us or we have to let them protect themselves.

COOPER:  So if you said, Japan, yes, it's fine, you get nuclear weapons, South Korea, you as well, and Saudi Arabia says we want them, too?

TRUMP:  Can I be honest with you?  It's going to happen, anyway.  It's going to happen anyway.  It's only a question of time.  They're going to start having them or we have to get rid of them entirely.
But you have so many countries already, China, Pakistan, you have so many countries, Russia, you have so many countries right now that have them.
Now, wouldn't you rather in a certain sense have Japan have nuclear weapons when North Korea has nuclear weapons?  And they do have them.  They absolutely have them.  They can't - they have no carrier system yet but they will very soon.
Wouldn't you rather have Japan, perhaps, they're over there, they're very close, they're very fearful of North Korea, and we're supposed to protect.

COOPER:  So you're saying you don't want more nuclear weapons in the world but you're OK with Japan and South Korea having nuclear weapons?

TRUMP:  I don't want more nuclear weapons.  I think that - you know, when I hear Obama get up and say the biggest threat to the world today is global warming, I say, is this guy kidding?
The only global warming - the only global warming I'm worried about is nuclear global warming because that's the single biggest threat.  So it's not that I'm a fan - we can't afford it anymore.  We're sitting on a tremendous bubble.  We're going to be - again, $21 trillion.  We don't have money.
