No one claimed Trump was a peacenik (or at least, no one of serious repute claimed that). What some of us did claim was that Trump’s predilections made it likely he’d roll back the US Empire, at least around the margins. And wouldn’t you know it...

The notion of "US Empire" generally refers to foreign territory controlled by the US government. Discussions of a border wall, etc. involve US territory. So in that sense they're separate. Also agree it's not a "peaceful" vision -- I don't share it. Just recognize outcomes.

I would hardly call the current state of Afghanistan and Syria "controlled by the US government".

The Trump/Republican/right wing view is right and wrong depend on who the accused is. So Trump accuses Hispanics of being rapists/murderers. But when a white male (ie Kavanaugh) is accused of attempted rape, he says it's scary to be accused of something "you may not be guilty of"

Defending your own border isn't not typical imperialism. It's not imperialism at all.

Hispanics? The real threat is low wage workers and criminals. Try to keep up.

Way to go equating having a border and country with invading and destroying someone else's. I suppose I would think this way too if I was a big fat slob living large in America when I would otherwise be shitting in the streets of Mumbai.

That's an ignorant take at the very least, I know you're a smart fella so let's cut the shit here, the US has been in Syria illegally.....understand? The West has all but destroyed all credibility since 9-11 due to MIC funding congress. Military's main goal is borders Grow up!
