    He’s correct because he knows how to measure the temperature of the room (aka most Americans, most PEOPLE, do not like or support “war” generically. It has to be repackaged, propagandized, and sometimes done covertly to convince enough people to not care or accept it as necessary and support it)

    The problem is (and not saying you did this) people hear him shit on Liz Cheney, Dick Cheney, Bolton, even Biden/Harris, etc. and they leap to this false conclusion that Trump is actually anti-war and not just speaking the words we (almost everyone not invested in Raytheon and shit) want to hear.

    In some hyper specific scenarios Trump was less pro-war, but in other ways he was just setting the inevitable conditions for war to break out (for example in Palestine by continuing to encourage a Saudi-Israeli alliance without regard to the fate of Palestinians).

    So, again, not saying you said or meant that. But I do hear and see some of the most annoying hoglets online saying that all the time. If Trump was anti-war he wouldn’t have just fired Bolton from his job he’d have fired him from a cannon directly into Tehran so they can prosecute him for all his various thousands of crimes. Or send him to Venezuela.

    Maybe send Hillary, Pelosi and Biden on a trip to Beijing with a little phone call to Xi while they’re en route that he gives his blessing to arrest them and prosecute.

    I actually wish Trump would do this shit because not only would it be hilarious and deserved by the “victims” (most of the politicians especially the national level ones deserve this in some way or another) but it would be actually, literally, “anti-war” as in removing the warhawk pieces of shit. He’d probably be the most popular president ever with normal people too and absolutely despised by the media and also the “deep state.” Ironic that he claims to want to drain the swamp, yet never even tried. I hope he does try! (Although this is prime “monkey’s paw” territory… Bolton lands in Iran around some anti-IRGC dissidents and manages to pull on old CIA adjacent ties in the region to organize them and overthrow the current government there and Bolton is made the new Shah…)
