against literally everyones advice, trump repeatedly asked about options for invading venezuela recently, i assume he just wants to strut around in a quasi military uniform and assume the mantle of general bone spurs.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ap-trump-pressed-aides-on-venezuela-invasion-us-official-says/
"As a meeting last August in the Oval Office to discuss sanctions on Venezuela was concluding, President Trump turned to his top aides and asked an unsettling question: With a fast unraveling Venezuela threatening regional security, why can't the U.S. just simply invade the troubled country?"

how do the trumpers feel about this, given that all his military commanders, and neighbouring countries advised it would be a terrible idea?
 
Good thing we didn't elect a warmonger like Hillary.
 
Mere talking and asking questions lol, wake me one when they illegally invade and blow up a nation leaving slave markets and mass death in their wake.
 
Just asking questions!!!

The ICA states that:

Russian efforts to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election represent the most recent expression of Moscow’s longstanding desire to undermine the U.S.-led liberal democratic order, but these activities demonstrated a significant escalation in directness, level of activity, and scope of effort compared to previous operations1 . •

The Committee found that this judgment was supported by the evidence presented in the ICA. Since its publication, further details have come to light that bolster the assessment. • The ICA pointed to initial evidence of Russian activities against multiple U.S. state or local electoral boards. Since the ICA was published, the Committee has learned more about Russian attempts to infiltrate state election infrastructure, as outlined in the findings and recommendations the Committee issued in March 2018. •

While the ICA briefly discussed the activities of the Internet Research Agency, the Committee's investigation has exposed a far more extensive Russian effort to manipulate social media outlets to sow discord and to interfere in the 2016 election and American society.

Russian Leadership Intentions The ICA states that:
We assess Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered an influence campaign in 2016 aimed at the U.S. presidential election. Russia's goals were to undermine public faith in the U.S. democratic process, denigrate Secretary Clinton, and harm her electability and potential presidency. We further assess Putin and the Russian Government developed a clear preference for President-elect Trump2 . • The Committee found that the ICA provided a range of all-source reporting to support these assessments. • The Committee concurs with intelligence and open-source assessments that this influence campaign was approved by President Putin. • Further, a body of reporting, to include different intelligence disciplines, open source reporting on Russian leadership policy preferences, and Russian media content, showed that Moscow sought to denigrate Secretary Clinton. • The ICA relies on public Russian leadership commentary, Russian state media reports, public examples of where Russian interests would have aligned with candidates' policy statements, and a body of intelligence reporting to support the assessment that Putin and the Russian Government developed a clear preference for Trump.

The ICA also statesthat: We also assess Putin and the Russian Government aspired to help President-elect Trump's election chances when possible by discrediting Secretary Clinton and publicly contrasting her unfavorably to him

It's amazing how many great click bait articles you can come up with when you completely relieve yourself of the burden of proof.

Almost as amazing as how all the high IQ liberal posters here just immediately accept them as truth.
 
Being an effective pacifist does not always mean that you avoid conflict at every opportunity.

According to some of the "pacifist intellectuals", it is far better to come off as very, very pro-active, capable and willing to use violence, in order to pre-empt violence. Even Gandhi believed it to be so.

The end results are ultimately what matters.

If Trump can avoid taking the United States to war, because to the rest of the world, he comes off as a crazy guy who will bomb the shit out of everybody, then it's still an effective strategy of pacification, on his part.

I think we saw during Obama's reign that merely being anti-war, does not necessarily mean that you won't be dragged into war.
 
nothing to see here..... its my guy so its fine...<36>
