    I don’t think Trump genuinely believes in or cares about the cultural issues that he instigates. He’s going to do random, relatively minor bs like this at home while actually starting WW3 somewhere in the Pacific. And just like his last term, the media and collective public will entirely focus on the distractions and not the main things he is doing.

      Trump overruled the Miss Universe organization to let a trans woman compete in 2012. He is a giant fucking lib but an even bigger grifter

      The media want WW3, so why would they attack Trump for that when that’s the only time he “acts presidential” is when he’s ordering assassinations against Iran or military shipments to Taiwan

      I think its the exact opposite honestly.

      We know from reports that Trump gets very easily bored and distracted by military briefings and stuff. I can’t imagine him having the willingless to sit through hours of briefings every morning. Heck I’m pretty sure the Russian ICBMs got him at least a decent briefing already.

      He can’t escape that and its torture for him. If given the choice I’d expect him to instead focus on the easy Ws by focusing on the domestic issues first. He will try to delegate FP as much as possible and this is the real problem, things that technicaly have presidential approval but the president spent all morning on twitter.

      Still every serious actual step towards WW3 involving NATO involves him dealing with stuff he doesn’t care about. I doubt he wants to sit in rooms full of massive Euro lib turbo natoheads at all.
