Trump's position on taking ISIS' oil isn't sane.  It isn't ISIS' oil, it's Iraq/Syria/Lebanon's.  He wants to use the threatened presence of a rebel group in an area to strip a sovereign nation of its natural resources in that area.  Imagine if France had dropped into California during the Civil War and taken all our gold on the pretense that the south might be about to take it over.  Not sane.  Especially in the case of Iraq, where it's in our best interests for the country to become a stable nation-state and oil is its most valuable resource.

It's not utterly insane.  He has some loopy ideas though.
