This is true, although it could be argued he did attempt to start one by killing the Iranian general in Iraq.
He does seem to understand at some level that Americans (actual people not the lizard-people in the big buildings in DC) don’t want war. And that if he wants to do a war he has to have an extremely strong “reason” to get the bloodlust flowing. Another 9/11 type thing.
I’m not so sure that would totally even work now days though. I think that’s part of the frustration from the Hillary Clinton types and John Boltons (same person?) is they can’t just racistly say “hate China!” They gotta do a decade of racist bullshiting and lies to prime the hogs and then maybe… I’m still not sure it’s working though.
People are racist, they don’t like other cultures due to propaganda and lack of exposure, etc., but a war where THEY have to do something is totally different and few, very few, are ever going to volunteer or even let themselves be conscripted for some war in Iran or proxy with China, etc., imo.
Everyone now saw the Iraq and Afghanistan wars that, even from the US perspective, was a complete shitfest for normal people. Of course they don’t care much about the lives in those countries, so that’s why I say from the American perspective.
In any case, I do believe Trump “gets” a lot of this and he does value being loved more than anything. If that fucker went into office and signed some significant concessions with China, Iran, Russia, etc. that dialed back tensions by reducing American military presence everywhere he’d be hated by the lizards but probably loved by a lot of Americans.
The president can do a lot of shit just unilaterally, it’s just a question of willpower. I dunno. Even if he restarted normalization with the DPRK and actually ended the stalled Korean War, I mean, I’d give him a lot of credit for that alone.
I wish he’d also remove the Cuban embargo but he’s got some gusano in his ear on that one telling him no.
It’s crazy the good a president can do at any given moment and yet they all choose to do… nothing. Or the bad thing. It’s bleak.
I understand your point, but the Venn diagram is nearly eclipsed, so not sure it matters.
the primary difference is that he actually doesn’t do as much fascist shit as they want him to
he didn’t for example start any wars despite fascist doctrine clearly advocating for progress funded through the spoils of war

no it’s simpler than that Trump is too selfish to want a war. He simply doesn’t care enough about other countries to want to kill them
