[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 3840635, member: 56035"] very interesting article: “Trump may try to save himself by starting hostilities abroad,” Nader said. “He is especially inclined to do this because of his extraordinary psychological instabilities and impulsiveness. He also has a monumental ego that lets him live in a fantasy world. The signal that he is planning this kind of move, a move he would carry out if he loses all other options to stay in office and be re-elected, will be if he replaces chief of staff John Kelly with a war hawk and his secretary of defense, James Mattis, with another war hawk. He has two war hawks who would like to see this happen. One is John Bolton, his national security adviser, and the other is the secretary of state, Mike Pompeo. Bolton and Pompeo have similar views about using military might abroad and ignoring constitutional, statutory and treaty restraints. They would like to see Kelly and Mattis removed. Pompeo, a graduate of West Point, has ambitions to become secretary of defense. If you see Kelly and Mattis replaced with warmongers, this move might reveal his ultimate trump card. [B]He can use a war to shut down political opposition and dissent in the name of supporting the troops.”[/B] [URL="https://www.truthdig.com/articles/are-we-about-to-face-our-gravest-constitutional-crisis/"]Are We About to Face Our Gravest Constitutional Crisis?[/URL] [/QUOTE]
