    A cause, not creation. Trump is our collective shadow, as it were. That thought where you want to say “Fuck the Rules” and do whatever you think is best, damn the consequences, is where Trump comes from.

    • The war with Iran? Iran has been pestering the US for some time. So why not just kill those guys and be done with it?
    • Europe keeps talking back and disrespecting your authority. So why not teach them a lesson by increasing prices on their stuff?
    • Maduro thinks he can fuck with the US as much as he wants. Let’s see if he still feels that way in an American prison!
    • The people whining in Minnesota must have been put up to this by the Radical Left or something. A good hit to the head will calm them down!
