(12,344 posts)In every case so far, Trump has talked big, but always taken the weakest, lowest risk action. In Syria, he shot some cruise missiles at an empty airfield. In Iraq, he continued Obama's policy just with more bombing. In North Korea, after big threats, he did nothing. In Afghanistan, faced with a choice of large escalation or leaving completely, he chose a small escalation.

but no, I'm a proud progressive (or liberal if you prefer) and i think our two party system (which our separation of powers inadvertently created) needs a sane center right party. i wouldn't vote for it, but the right needs to get their crazies in line for the sake of the republic and the world. i really think he might nuke something just because people are voicing concern about him and the nukes.
