So let me get this straight.

We are gonna spend billions to launch a domestic war against leftists and left leaning cities?

Were gonna launch a war on behalf of Israel on Iran that'll probably coat trillions?

All while we cut tax revenue and run up a deficit of trillions? 

Am I the crazy one? Wtf?

You are correct. I totally get that and understand the motive. The issue i see is you can't really just take the military out for a weekend romp and put em back like a porshe. Protesters will keep escalating, and trump won't acquisce.  This means there will be an expensive standoff. Not to mention this will trash blue cities economies. One of the only strong tax bases left.

I think essentially he's looking for conflict so he can grab more power... either something like Martial Law or changing laws to deal with imaginary riots.

Is trump speed running bankrupting an entire superpower nation  like it's one of his casinos?

Don't forget he also wants to go to war with the drug cartels because he thinks bombing Mexico will fix all our drug problems. All he will accomplish is temporarily raising illegal drug prices (maybe) which will both increase crime and incentivize new suppliers to enter the market.

it was the best of times it was the, 
actually its just the worst of times.

You are not the crazy one.

The craziest things about it to me, are not that Donny and his self-serving admin are doing these things, it's 1) more than enough Americans allowed themselves to be fooled by him AGAIN, and 2) more than enough of the legislature and judiciary will allow him to do it.

It's insane.

Same play as Putin, Erdogan and every other authoritarian - when you become unpopular, you polarize people more so you can at least solidify your supporters. It costs massively to the nation but you stay in power.

Obviously not sustainable, see where Russia or Turkey are economically. US is an exception due to its military power, we'll see if it'll work for the US.
