I never met you, so whatever your opinion is counts for nothing in my very real Texas, but every actual Texas Republican I know but only the ones who are not rich talk about destroying their enemies, both foreign and domestic. Their domestic enemies, who all seem to be Democrats for some reason, get talked about as targets for bullets while foreign enemies are targets for bombs. And what bomb is bigger than the H-bomb?

Hi there, useful idiot!

Did you not realize that a hundred million very ordinary people are pushing the USA toward WWIII? The American working class has strongly supported the wars undertaken by the United States, and it can see that by never winning them, the United States has always lost them. The American heartland has always been emotionally invested in global power. Successive defeats in war left deep wounds in its collective consciousness, as did the indifferent respect paid to veterans returning from the battlefields. That the country with the world’s most powerful military had so often been unable to prevail over its enemies, the heartland attributed to faint-hearted and feckless leadership. Hurt pride resulted in simultaneous calls for a complete withdrawal from foreign adventures, and for an unrestrained use of military force. Leaders such as Trump seem to emerge easily in countries with a colonial past—the United States, France, the UK, the Netherlands, and also Russia. Collective memories of being at the center of the world, or at least of a world of one’s own, seem to make it more difficult to accept relegation to the status of one country among others.

O wie ist alles fern und lange vergangen (Oh, how far away and long has passed) is a sentiment that an entire people can share.

Trump is not the problem. He set himself against the Deep State's agenda. And the Deep State's been heading for WWIII for years.
As for you, you're just a Deep State useful idiot, furthering its agenda. So I hope you enjoy cesium in your coffee. You've earned it.

Hello Useless Old Fart 1kiki!

Trump at last has a soul mate in whom to confide, Anthony Scaramucci, the White House’s new communications director. “Mooch”, or “Mini-me” to Washington insiders, Scaramucci is Trump’s knee-capper. Good cop, meet seriously bad cop.

Scaramucci is the personification of Trump’s deep brain. To the extent that the president ever withholds a thought, Scaramucci is there to express it for him. He’s his human Twitter feed. What Scaramucci says, Trump thinks. Thanks to The New Yorker’s Ryan Lizza, we’re privy to enough premium quotes to entertain ourselves for months.

Lizza, a polite, erudite fellow, did what reporters sometimes do: He taped his conversation with The Mooch, capturing a hailstorm of profane tirades against leakers and, specifically, Priebus — “a (expletive) paranoid schizophrenic.” He also made foul reference to senior adviser Steve Bannon performing Ripley-esque acrobatics that can’t be described further here.

Texas sounds crazy.

You should probably not classify 100,000,000 people based off of your very smallish demographic of Texas Republicans that you personally know.

Did you watch Firefly? Serenity? Read the Serenity comics? Did you see Mal or River peacefully negotiate with their enemies? Or kill them? That kind of murderous entertainment only works (also see Game of Thrones) with an audience that looks admiringly upon dealing out death.

The same thing could be said about guns & ammo sales in the USA of $13.5 billion. Although more deer and ducks than people die, a lot of people are murdered.

Then there is the Pentagon's budget of $585 billion. That isn't what the USA needs for defense, that is what it needs for massive warfare, and your Congressman who voted for that budget will get reelected specifically because he is a hot-headed warmonger. This is what 100 million American voters want. It is baloney to claim that the Deep State is mainly responsible when it is the American voters' preference.

Did you know that the American anti-war sentiment of the 1960's faded away in the 1970's to a ghost once the draft ended? 100,00,000 American voters are NOT opposed to war; they're opposed to personally fighting in a war.

Trump, as a teenager, was an early adopter of loving war, but not fighting a war. Because of that enlightenment at such a young age, Trump certainly understands what the people want today.

I'd leave the psychology to the psychologists.

That being said, I have no idea at all anymore what you are saying and where you are getting your 100 million voters claim. Everything else you posted in the thread makes it sound like you're saying this about Republican voters, but that first part out I quoted there betrays that idea.

I'm willing to bet that more than half of the people who loved Firefly and who currently love Game of Thrones would say they are Democrats. That's just going based off of the fact that the younger you are the more likely you are to call yourself a Democrat, and the current demographic breakup of Game of Thrones by age is very likely as young as the average viewer of Firefly was when it came out.

So.... what are you saying?

136,669,237 voted in November for President. Maybe a quarter of them are anti-war. That leaves about 100,000,000 pro-war voters. The pro-war voters keep voting for the same Congressman in the House of Representatives who approved a $535 billion Pentagon budget. I say that makes it the voters’ fault when the USA is constantly at war.

You might be surprised to know that 97% of Congressmen were reelected in 2016. The voters must really like their warmonger Congressman.

Other countries that don’t have huge War Department budgets can’t afford to go to war all around the world. Only the USA can. And because it can, it does, thanks to the voters returning the same old Congressman that voted to increase the Pentagon’s budget.

Remember, 97% got re-elected. The voters are in love with their Congressman. Not even 97% of marriages last two years, but voters keep returning the same old Congress every two years. I’d say that is why problems never get solved. Same old Congress = Same old unsolved Problems. You would think the voters would learn, wouldn’t you? I thank God every time an Old Congressman dies in office, since that is the only sure way to a better future. I pray for the bad health of Senator Ted Cruz.
