Didn't trump fire Bolton for being a war hawk? Trump is an isolationist, he showed he wasn't interested (or capable) of foreign intervention. No support from the rest of the imperial core, not subtle or patient enough to pull of coupe not sneaky enough to motivate the American people to nuke Iran and not understanding of the machine of capital to realise why they had troops in Afghanistan
I seriously cannot understand how one can look at the general global reproachment between nations that happened under Trump, because he withdrew the heavy hand of the US empire. Did he do it because he's a nice guy? No he did it because he's a racist who doesn't wanna waste money on all those dirty foreigners and he doesn't understand how the presence of the US is necessary.
He sincerely believes the propaganda we get told (Kim Jong Un is crazy, the people of Venezuela are rising up against oppresive government all on their own, were only in Afghanistan to help the local government)
