Nothing 'merica likes better than a good ole war. Especially the ones that are for revenge against a real attack on US soil. Because then its all about 'supporting the troops' (to go out and be killed and maimed physically and mentally).

I predict that it won't be long at all until Trump has his very own war so he can be a war president and get his ratings up. Will it be Iran first or will he 'practice' on some smaller middle eastern state first? I also fear another false flag attack here to propel his war aspirations.
