Nothing Trump has done contravenes the "anti-interventionist" label that was assigned to him. Petulant critics just cynically misinterpret.

Trump pledged every single day to more forcefully/violently combat ISIS, with less regard for civilians. Nothing mysterious about this.

Before the election the clear narrative was that Clinton means more war and Trump would withdraw.

Trump pledged everyday to more forcefully and violently combat ISIS.

That's a great way to shamelessly avoid taking responsibility for being absolutely wrong; redefine a word. Congrats to Greenwald.

Apparently bombing civilians in foreign land makes you a non-interventionist.

I don't find it consistent at all. He's backing Iraq's gov in Mosul, rebels in Syria. That's nation building.

You sure he's backing rebels in Syria? He withdrew air support from one region.

So in other words "non-interventionism" doesn't actually mean "non-interventionism." Also ignore N. Korea and China saber-rattling.

It was still a better message than HRC's outlook.. At least he had a message. Perhaps she could learn from Trump
#NeverHillary btw -
You know nothing about HRC it appears. She's a highly competent, experienced leader. Read "Hard Choices" & weep.

That's thinking too hard. Trump's military view is literally a kid's: blow up stuff & kill bad guys when we want, don't do 'boring stuff'
-
Regional strategies, long-term plans, civilian casualties, cleaning up after yourself = 'boring.' Long wars too, so he appears nonintervent

Don't start needless wars (e.g., "regime change", "humanitarian"), but if you are in a war, don't fight half-heartedly.

Well, he's kept none of his policies so far. Why should that be any different.
