    I’m pretty sure Trump will start a war before the elections, both to boost his ratings and to justify extraordinary powers because of the emergency that he will have just created.

      He tried very hard to do so with Iran last time around, when he committed a war crime faking a diplomatic meeting in order to assassinate one of their to generals.

        Yes I think that it will be with Iran this time too. I mean, nobody can know with Trump since he’s an avatar of Chaos, but it is a good option. Big and powerful enough that you don’t accidentally win in 48 hours. Not an ally of any western country. Already have propaganda queued up since 1979 or so.
