​
1) A nuclear armed Saudi Arabia, Germany, Japan, South Korea,Taiwan...
2) Not ruling
​ ​
out using nuclear weapons against Europe because "Europe is a big place
​"​
.
3) Angering every single foreign ally the USA has.
4) Saying "I know more about
​ ​
ISIS than the generals do, believe me".
5) Saying he would "annihilate
​ ​
ISIS very very quickly", but not saying how other than "bomb the shit out
of them".
6) Ordering the army to Torture for fun even though the army says it will
mutiny if he does.
7) Ordering the army to murder children because Trump doesn't like their
father even though the army says it will mutiny if he does.
8) Ordering political opponents jailed and newspapers put out of business
because he
​doesn't​
 like what they said.
9) Refusing to pay the national debt.
10) Starting a global trade war.
11) Building a wall.

Please explain which one of those is silly hyperbole.
