          No, I mean what I said - I think there’s honestly a good chance he’s letting wish.com Goebbels (that is, Miller) have the leash and speed up that process also as a distraction. He is that much of a psychopathic narcissist. He would use literally anything he can think of to distract from critical negative attention to himself

      “Police action”, because even with the current climate, it might be hard to get Congress to declare an actual war.

        If he doesn’t it isn’t worth the effort, we’ve had elections during actual wars we wouldn’t skip them for police actions.

          Ahh, but we’ve never really had such top-to-bottom corruption like this. A president who thinks himself a king, and everyone from congresspeople to governors to state secretaries to city officials who want him to stay that way. Sure, Bush might not have suspended elections, or Obama, but I can definitely see Trump trying.

            It’s possible but that’s an uphill battle considering we had elections after Pearl and during Vietnam and Korea.

      Yes but… if Venezuela takes the grenade, we (Canada) are in the clear for a few years! I bet that maple troll you’re responding to has the same dirty thoughts.
