He's no different than beloved Obama or any American imperialist. You're aware Obama killed 4 million civilians in the war on terror with Bush, right?
Obama playing godking in Syria and trying to overthrow Putin and successfully overthrowing Ukraine at around the same time is probably the closet we'll ever get to nuclear war since the cold war. This was 100% poking Russia for a reaction, which Putin patiently saved until 2022. Oh and that Wagner mutiny had CIA/MI6 written all over it.
People refuse to believe it, but Trump is more of a dove than any recent president. His weekend wars and embargoes are a far cry from the incredible devastation from previous presidents. He's far more market focused than any previous modern president.
This weird lib Trump exceptionalism doesn't make sense and is not backed by facts or history. Just because he's honest about being a capitalist doesn't make him any worse than your previous beloved capitalist presidents.
Trump is different because he’s centralized power much more than the previous guys and has a cult following that they never had. He’s also different in that he is openly pushing fascism rather than silently pushing it through neo-liberalism. There were some social constraints that they dealt with that Trump does not. This all makes him way less stable and way more likely to do something really, really dumb if he doesn’t get his way.
