A number of officials with high-level security clearance, and copious amounts of intel, have warned the president about this. This includes Mr. Vance and Tulsi Gabbard. But for some inexplicable reason, Mr. Trump was unentreatable. A seductive influence has moved him away from his previous, sincerely held opinions. Below are a few he expressed in public, going back a quarter century.
“I’m not going to start wars, I’m going to stop wars.”
“We’re going to end these endless wars.”
“We will turn the page forever on those foolish, stupid days of never-ending wars. They never ended.”
“I will expel the warmongers from our national security state… and stop the war profiteering.”
“He [his predecessors] sent our blood and treasure to back regime change in Iraq, regime change in Libya, regime change in Syria and every other globalist disaster for half a century.
“We believe that the job of the United States military is not to wage endless regime-change wars around the globe, senseless wars. The job of the United States military is to defend America from attack and invasion here at home.”
“These endless wars keep going and going, people getting killed all over the place, spending billions and billions.”
“There must be a complete commitment to dismantling the entire globalist neocon establishment that is perpetually dragging us into endless wars, pretending to fight for freedom and democracy abroad…We should have never gone into the Middle East. Under my leadership, we will turn the page forever on those foolish, stupid days of never-ending wars…. Stupid, senseless, endless wars…”
“Lindsey Graham would like to stay in the Middle East for the next thousand years, with thousands of soldiers, fighting other people’s wars. I want to get out of the Middle East.”
“The US should stay out of Syria.”
“The United States spent $2 trillion in Iraq and thousands of lives. Now we’re bombing Libya and giving aid to rebels. What are we doing?”
“We should never have been there [Iraq].”
Trump concluded his 2024 campaign by saying in his victory speech: “I’m not going to start wars, I’m going to stop wars.”
Observers are concerned that today he is not listening to honest after-action reports, and will keep blindly bombing until the US arsenal is totally expended. All, that is, except the US nuclear missiles. And then what?
Many Republicans pride themselves on their chess-playing acumen. Dems write a tax increase bill, GOP players write one that doesn't increase taxes, and say, "We'll just checkmate these revolutionaries and WIN this one." Sometimes they do. But Since the Goldwater days, they've been whipped 90 percent of the time. So they study chess tactics harder.
In next three years, the Dems are rolling out an army of tanks. First mission: roll over every chess board and destroy them, leaving the elephants to wander around aimlessly, not knowing how to do politics.
How do we know this? Zoom calls over the last year. The Dems are done with chess.
Kunstler: "Democratic Party election ninja Marc Elias knocked himself out for two years registering new voters by the bale, as in manufacturing them. . . illegal aliens. . . homeless junkies. . . straight-up fictitious persons. . . in order to flood the zone with fake mail-in ballots, that is, in-your-face fraud. And the reason they did it was so ...
"No man is big enough to run this great Republic. There never has been one. Such domination was never intended. Tranquillity, stability, dependability—all are assured in party sponsorship. and we mean to renew the assurances which were rended in the cataclysmal war.”
Warren Harding, July 1920.
