Trump is no more antiwar than Nixon was; he's just more selective about it than was Biden. Like Nixon, he wants a detente with Russia and China, but on terms that make him look good to the US public.

If Trump was antiwar, he would have suspended all military aid to Israel and we wouldn't be bombing Yemen.

Antiwar is not the same as not fighting a war. I've said on many occasions, if you are not willing to fight, then you must be willing to be a slave.

That’s irrelevant to what OB was talking about. Trump is as hawkish as they come; he just happens to be smart enough to only picks on the weak ones (Yemen) and not those who can punch back (Iran, Russia).

The other reason Ukraine can't join NATO is they have never gotten corruption under control. They have yet to meet that requirement to join NATO.
