Half of the world's population is not interested in starting wars; that's the women. And of the remaining half, most of them have better things to do than go to war. Why does a small minority run the country? Why do we keep getting what we don't want?
Hillary Clinton lost the election despite being a Democrat, an advantage at the time, and a woman. Part of the reason was she appeared to want to attack countries allied with Russia risking war with Russia. And Donald Trump had the advantage of being a businessman who would make deals and compromises rather than start wars. He had no political experience but being a businessman was worth more in many people's eyes.
Dude, Trump was a scam artist of a "businessman" and threatened to start wars over Twitter. His "experience" as "a businessman" was complete garbage and he was more than willing to threaten war at the drop of a hat.
I think the public would like to have fewer wars. 1. Look at how many tried to evade the draft during the Vietnam War. 2. Look at the cost of the Iraq Afghan Wars (likely to be well over 6 Trillion dollars) And I think the public believed sleepy Joe to be too senile to start any wars. Well, the weapons industry is moving us into wars because senile Joe failed to stop them.
China was so nervous after the Capitol riot that Milley called his Chinese counterpart to give them reassurances. Everyone in his path of destruction was on pins and needles.
