re: #172 Hecuba’s daughter

The House of Saud will be delighted to get us involved in their conflict and have our military die for them — we are just their hired guns. But as I keep saying — maybe naively — this is not the Trump way; he won’t be starting a new conflict that would produce significant American casualties. Yes — he will misjudge the situation, like he misjudges everything except the gullibility and racism of much of the American public — but actual conflict, now that Bolton is gone, seems increasingly unlikely.

Think he’ll do a Venezuela? Rattle the saber a while then lose interest?
