He's just going on record now saying he doesn't want a war so when he has the opportunity because of some contrived crisis in or near Iran - he can say that he was forced into a war. He had to do it to protect our interests.
He knows that being at war might help him win re-election and he is desperate to be re-elected because he knows losing would probably land him in jail.
Why else would he hire John Bolton (whom Trump says he's a hawk and it looks like he's trying to put some distance between him and Bolton). It's just a ruse folks.
We all know that Trump says the opposite of what he really wants or wants to do. Trump wants to be a war president. He wants a war to protect himself (thru re-election). He wants a war because it will keep him in the spotlight and you know how he likes to be the talk of all the news.
My prediction is - sometime before the 2020 Nov election - we'll be embroiled in a war with Iran.
I'm really hoping I'm wrong on this - but I don't trust Trump with anything he says. He's proven to us that he is a pathological liar only thinking of one thing - himself.
