Remember when everyone was pointing out that the media's coverage of Joker *really* seemed keen to incite a mass shooting?

George Bush wasn't facing an electorate exhausted by a decade and a half of fruitless warring in the Middle East. The war still saw bipartisan support then. The idea is uttery laughable now.
But even if you assume that Trump is occupying an alternate reality wherein US voters want *more* involvement in conflicts in the region in 2020, it doesn't explain why Trump is explicitly saying he's trying to avoid a war. If he thinks the people want one, why would he say that?

I’m not saying he thinks people want war (although clearly many journalists seem to), I’m saying he might think that being involved in a war will help him politically somehow (maybe emphasize his willingness to do what needs to be done to protect America vs scared Democrats)

"The people don't want a war, but they want a president who's involved in a war" doesn't make any sense. I don't know what to tell you. What you've said here is incomprehensible; you're telling two stories in a single sentence and don't even seem to notice.
