Donald Trump, the anti-war candidate?

US President Donald Trump’s discourse on the conflict between Israel and Iran suddenly went from an observer to a participant. Days after demanding the USA He had no direct participation When Israel’s actions and attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities are assassinated by the assassination of various leadership figures and scientists – then he added: “Now we have full and full control of the sky on Iran”.

We know exactly where the ‘Supreme Leader’ is hiding. It is an easy target, but there is safe – we will not take it out (kill!), At least not for now. But we don’t want missiles to civilians or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin.

And thus, with the increase in the probability of more directly participating in Israel’s attacks on Iran, Trump and former supporters were perhaps the widest public cliff (rather than small individual fights). Tucker Carlson and Steve Bannon have to have Both demanded Trump, isolation to promises and heavy maga/conspiracy theory representative Marjorie Taylor Greene Published “Foreign wars/intervention/regime change has given America to the latest, kills innocent people, breaks us and ultimately lead to our destruction. This is not a man. Millions of Americans voted for it. First what we believe is America”.

I wish it was a way to know what happened Trump would do in power -Let’s say a four -year period in which he bombed Afghanistan and Syria, assassinating Iranian military leaderStarted Thousands of drone strikesAnd he appointed a funny national security advisor against Iran.

However, it was a belief article between every Trump supporter Crirase The US had to stop participating in wars abroad, and Trump was likely to achieve it.

At a rally in Michigan, Trump said on Friday before the election, “I am a candidate for peace” to add: “I am peace.” (“La Paix, C’est Moi…” maybe).

At the same rally, if his rival Kamala Harris wins, he argued that he was only expected to death and destruction because he was the candidate of eternal wars ”. And of course this and something else, the democrats made life much easier for him, Harris proudly proudly the Iraq war architect and old Vice President Dick Cheney And similarly Pro -war girl Lizand old Employees for Ronald Reagan.

In this context, Trump made statements about the young Cheney that Genç Cheny was a “Savaş Şahin ve and told Tucker Carlson at a Arizona event:

I don’t want to go to war. [Liz Cheney] He wanted to go, wanted to stay in Syria. I bought it [troops] outside. He wanted to stay in Iraq. I took them out. I mean, if it was up to him, we’d be in 50 different countries. ”

Then added“That radical war is a hawk. Let’s put him with a rifle standing with nine barrels, okay? Let’s see how he feels. You know, when the guns are trained on his face.”

This was represented in headlines as another fascist shift from a man who was threatened to violence against his political opponents. But they realized that the voters meant him.

After the rhetoric victory, in his victory speech in Florida, Trump promised to save the US army from “radical political theories and social experiments önce, ım I will not start wars, I will stop wars”. he saidApplause waves:

As in 2017, we will rebuild the most powerful army that the world has ever seen. We will measure our success not only with the wars we have won, but also with the wars we have ended – and perhaps the most importantly the wars that we can never get.

My most proud legacy will be a peaceful and unifying. This is what I want to be: a peaceful and a unifying.

As Bernard Keane stated on these pages, if we were going to draw parallels between 1968 and 2024, George Wallace’s racial complaints will stop painful (by chance, will survive later assassination) It is probably a better harmony than Richard Nixon, a republican candidate of the organization. But something Nixon and Trump shares Authoritarian views on protestcoming to duty with A word of peace.

Of course, this analogy is everything so ominous. Nixon followed his 1968 word with a five -year war, hundreds of thousands of tons of bombs fell into Cambodia and Laos, tens of thousands of dead American soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people killed by US forces (the lowest end of predictions) in Indochina.
