Anyone who thinks Trump is somehow anti war or anti imperialist is clueless. He's incompetent and sometimes accidentally hurts imperial interests as a result but he definitely loves imperialism

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 39 points 1 year ago

He loves it, but there’s no way he knows the meaning of the word. Just like liberals, tbh.

Even if he was anti-imperialist, he's not going to successfully challenge the State Department on anything of importance. Sure, he'll have a totally symbolic meeting with the DPRK, but when he orders troops out of Syria? They just lie to him and say it's done, and because he doesn't care and isn't competent that's the end of it.

Honestly I envy the people who think he's anti-war or anti-imperoalist. Every claim in that direction has such a make statements or promises without checking with your staff energy, and I really want to be the person whose professional life is so good they can't recognize that.
