Quite possible, although less likely now, I think. The GOP has plenty of hawks, but the DNC is the party of Cheney and the neocons post-2020, and Genocide Joe loves nothing more than the smell of child's blood in the morning, while Trump is actually quite conflict averse despite his bluster. We're definitely on the brink.
The same Trump who supported bombing the shit out of Gaza to "finish the job"?
did you not hear when Trump threatened to annex greenland, panama and bomb México?
I'll owe you a coke if WWIII starts in Greenland, not Ukraine or Israel or Sudan.
What's his bluster? America invaded two countries less then 30 years ago under gop leadership in case you missed that.
Not to mention he is threatening to invade more now. Don't pretend like America isn't a war loving nation in general.
Plenty of neocons and worse in Trump cabinet picks. Marco Rubio one of the most extreme neocons. But, he has said something no neocon would say: The war in Ukraine needs to end. Neocons have strong bipartisanship in both parties, but Trump pretends to disagree with them. Liz Cheney campaigning with Harris is part of an anti-Trump neocon rebellion within GOP.
Marco rubio says ukraine war needs to end so they can pivot towards latin america and asia, not because he is a peaceful man 😂
