Qwiss I'll never understand this logic. he's been allowed to exist, therefore doesn't represent a threat. he's been inundated with lawsuits and some states supreme courts have determined he be removed from the ballot altogether, much of which stems back to his poat 2020 election interference. if any of that sticks, does he then rise to the level of 'not being allowed to exist', and only at that point can be considered a credible threat? the lullaby of the autocrat really is working. flood the zone with enough bullshit that people start giving up altogether and believing there's no threat in the dominant international power unravelling democratically.
and as with much of the far rights platform, 'stopping endless wars' seems virtuous on the surface, but in reality it's an attempt to blow up the current US power structure from the inside and remake it with lord knows what, probably something from steve bannons fever dream. these guys are playing for keeps.
