      Once? Trump was elected twice.
      George Bush Jr. started an illegal war against Iraq, and claimed that if you aren’t with us, you are against us. He too was both war mongering and hostile towards allies.
      Reagan stood for the worst weapons race of the cold war, and was corrupt with the Iran Contra affair, and he made many people very afraid of nuclear war.
      Nixon too was a war criminal with what USA did in Vietnam, his first order was to increase war activity in Vietnam, and he and Kissinger decidedly sabotaged peace talks.

      This didn’t happen once, there is a clear pattern, and that pattern points towards the next Republican president will likely be even worse.
