True, Trump has 3 years to beat Obama.
But Obama did not run on "no more wars".

Trump has authorized strikes on more nations than any other recent President

​

During Trump’s first presidency, U.S. military action included counterterrorism strikes, punitive missile attacks, and high-profile targeted operations. These included:​

1. Syria
Cruise missile strikes on the Shayrat Airbase in April 2017 in response to a chemical weapons attack.

2. Iraq
While much of U.S. action occurred in cooperation with broader counter-ISIS operations not started by Trump, his administration continued and expanded strikes on ISIS targets that had originated before his term.

Most notably, in January 2020, Trump ordered the strike that killed Iranian General Qassem Suleimani at Baghdad Airport — a unilateral military action.

3. Yemen (limited first-term involvement)

Early in 2017 Trump authorized the Raid on Yakla — a raid against al-Qaeda in Yemen (January 2017, shortly after he took office).

Note on other drone strikes:

The administration also conducted drone strikes in places like Pakistan against militant targets, but these are typically classified broader counter-terrorism operations and not always publicized as standalone “countries struck.”

​

Since returning to office in January 2025, President Trump has authorized a far broader range of military operations — often without explicit congressional authorization — across multiple regions. Major strikes include:


4. Somalia — airstrikes targeting ISIS affiliates (Feb 2025).
5. Iraq — precision strikes against ISIS in March 2025.
6. Yemen — extensive strikes on Houthi forces (March–May 2025).
7. Iran — large-scale air and missile strikes against Iranian nuclear sites and broader military targets (June 2025; followed by a major coordinated campaign in early 2026).
8. Nigeria — strikes against ISIS-linked targets in Dec 2025.
9. Syria — strikes on ISIS and related targets in Syria (Dec 2025–2026).
10. Venezuela — a U.S. raid/strike in Jan 2026 that resulted in the capture of President Maduro.

Trump is a record breaker! Not in a good way

 

[ElmerMudd]

Doesnt matter. A declaration of war is legislation. Not a thumbs up.

True, but there was acknowledgement of congress and the seperation of power for every war after WWII until Trump purposely ignored congress as he has on everything he could.

Terrorists suck. We got them here. And it is you. It's just that you are first world terrorists and your evil is justified. Now show us some Jan. 6 photos again. We have organized terrorist organizations with many paid that get the peasants involved here. Add our D.C. security government apparatus that is Machiavellian at times and party dominated with employees believing they are doing right as Progressives in screwing up agendas if needed has sidetracked our nation.

The only solution, for what you describe, is a dictatorship.
Your ranting is based on ecessive fear that makes a person delusional. Why are you so fearful. Something in your past?

 

[ElmerMudd]

right? especially since the democrats don't believe we have a sovereign nation. They will take us all out if given an opportunity, and they're letting us all know that.

Watch out the democrats and the boogey man are out to get you.
What makes a person so paranoid. Get help. You create your own reality.

 

[ElmerMudd]

Peace isn't the absence of violence it is the resolution of conflict.

Read up on your Clauswitz. Getting rid of the Mullahs and replacing them with a popular government would resolve a ton of conflicts in the region.

How do we end up with a democratic government or any government of the people?

yep, I pay attention to the evil that swarms around this country. You favor evil.

The cultest telling someone else they are a cultist is where the mirror comes in.
