        Go start a revolution if you don’t like Trump, but I guess it will be a war, since no one will stop him soon or later.

            Ehh, Korea happened, and Afghanistan. And, y’know, our own early expansion. We invented peacekeeping missions, but these days mostly troops from other third-world nations actually do it. Pakistan was far and away ahead of the pack last I checked, although it’s been a while.

            I’m happy with modern Canada, and I would separate it from historical Canada, but our lack of military building and use has been out of complacency more than anything else.

        Do you really believe him? Will he start any war? When he says he wants to stop wars. And if, if he starts a war, who is going to stop him ? The usa citizens?

          I have no idea if he’d actually do it. He’s ordered military operations before, but not on that scale.

          If he did, there’d be no stopping him in the short term. They’re going to invade and occupy whatever non-nuclear-protected nation they want to. The only hope would be long-term guerilla warfare like in Afghanistan.

          But like, why would that be good? I usually have the same response to his dumb ideas, but this one seems bloody, way too bloody for however much it would weaken him.
