Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I’m pretty sure this whole plan is outlined by the Pentagon and the president just signs off. Not like he has much say in the matter anyway since he is just the rubber stamp tool of the military industrial complex.
People are simply brainwashed into thinking the president has any real power. He is just a figurehead and takes his orders from the powers that be: weapons manufacturers and their corporate shareholders who will profit from these sales.
The real issue is that the US economy is propped up by continued warmongering and arms sales. It doesn’t really matter who the president is anymore, he just signs his name on the piece of paper that is handed to him. A good president can use procedural loopholes to soften the blow a bit or maybe sell it as a good idea.
Trump is an idiot who doesn’t care and will do whatever makes him more money, be it from Russia, China, or the Saudis. He doesn’t care. He is for sale to the high bidder, domestic or foreign. He doesn’t have the bandwidth, capacity, or desire to give a shit.
When you put it that way, I feel so bad for him.
Don't, he's a zionist ghoul. He's all-in on this shit anyway.
But he's just a smol bean
