I think it’s very fair to argue that both parties support war too easily. But the idea that now it’s the right who is anti war is too much. Including and especially Trump.

Trumpists *might* be anti war but I don't really trust them on that. You can also be anti war without sucking up to dictators like Putin.

But the neocons have openly said they are trying to colonize the Democrats. They didn't just go away.

I honestly don't know if Trump would or not. I think his impulses are kind of isolationist.

I think he could stumble into a war like an idiot and if he did I think he would run it terribly.

I don't think he would use the nukes because he wouldn't care that much. But he *is* unstable and unpredictable.

And yes he is totally ego driven.
