Watch what he does, not what he says. — fishfry

Trump blusters about military strength and then avoids war. — fishfry

[Edit to last post: just saw your response to ssu which touched on GOP question above...]

What he says appears to me to cater to warmongering energies within his supporters (see also Nos characterizing the justification of Kyle Rittenhouse's actions as "slaying people" and "unleashing fury" for an additional example in the Trump thread) along with the campaign imagery already mentioned and "saber rattling" rhetoric.

If Trump is ignorant of this - and your assessment is true - this makes him an ignorant, ineffective 'man of peace' - and presumably also - in language he might endorse, a loser. It would be #verysad if this is the case.

If he is tacitly endorsing these energies or outright encouraging them and/or fully cognizant but ignoring them in what he says but somehow nevertheless "striving for peace in what he does" - this seems to me to lead to something like contributing to a more warmongering public in order to get votes whilst playing 11d chess as StreetlightX put it elsewhere - which is both very difficult to believe and to whatever extent accurate would make him seem to me to be even more of a sloppy disaster.
