Donald Trump 's behavior in foreign relations is a direct example of a thesis set out by Hans Morgenthau some 70 years ago. That is, the degree of aggressive nationalism and imperialism expressed in a nation's foreign policy is inversely proportional to the political and economic stability in the country.

Trump feels under attack on the domestic front and threatened by impeachment. Therefore, he is creating conflict on the international attention and trying to build patriotic cohesion by within a nation at war to draw attention away from the things that threaten him, and trying to build support for him at the time of our nation in international conflict. That is all there is to it.

Let's be honest. Trump is not a deep thinker. His history is one of an impulsive child wanting his way. We keep looking for the deep meaning behind everything he does.... there is none. He's just a dumb ass....

Wagging the Dog. My suspicion was an attack on N. Korea, if he gets worse, maybe so 😕

Was thinking as I listened to the BBC reports on this murder last night ..how ashamed anyone who voted for this POS should be. When I watched him break down, bully, even stalk Hillary in those debates - it was beyond obvious - this creep is deranged!

So, yet again, we - the majority who didn’t vote for him - are hostage to his attacks on the world. That world likely suspects we’d be rioting in the streets to rid them of him … instead ….we’re impatiently awaiting an election (which would leave him in office another fuckin year!), or our sorry Senate (filled with spineless so-called Republicans) to convict & remove him..

The adults have fled his Administration, so this may be the tip of the iceberg - as he flails in fear ...lashing out at the world using the most powerful military in human history.. If the Republicans in the US Senate were the patriots they claim - they’d take the opportunity to impeach this international threat & national embarrassment - salvage their party ..and perhaps our nation.
