The World War 3 has already has started, just many are refusing to acknowledge it. If Ukraine won't stop Russia it will continue to the rest of the Europe. We already North Korea fighting within Europe.
Going back to trump, he is all about himself and no empathy towards others. He is willing to get Ukrainians and Palestinians killed in exchange for whatever putin and bibi are giving him. He had no problem of having two politicians assassinated to just distract from No King protests.
So yeah, I wouldn't put past him to use him for political gain, like excuse to deploy military in Utah or some other goal he wants to achieve.
Wasn't Kirk on the release Epstein files bandwagon anyway? That sounds like something that would let you fall out of favor.
We are no longer in the first term where there were people that would say "no" to him.
Wars start all the time and don't escalate into worldwide conflicts. This is like saying "The next recession has started, just look at X!!!" It's really easy to make a doomer take, but when the doom fails to materialize, it's always "okay, sorry, we got the date wrong... but soon! Doooooooom!" Any sort of take like this deserves a blanket response: put up or shut up. Let's see your bet on Polymarket.
Conspiracy talk. Show me the proof. Or show me your bet on Polymarket that we will eventually find evidence.
Outside Moab and SLC (which are moderate), Utah is one of the reddest states in the union. From a despotic point of view, this makes no sense.
Trump's administration might be more competent now, but Trump himself certainly isn't. If he found himself suddenly not liking Kirk, I would expect to see him trash talking on TruthSocial.
A far more likely scenario: all the recent political violence we've been seeing is the result of unstable individuals in a politically divisive climate with unfettered access to firearms.
I mean, Russia's certainly looking like they want to try at Finland again with those troop buildups, and they're propping up a lot of armed agitators in Moldova, as well as a lot of sabotage across Central Europe (and now a drone incursion accidentally-maybe-not into Poland). Sure looks to me like if Russia isn't an aggressor nation towards Europe, they're doing a damn fine job imitating one.
Do they have the troops, morale, equipment, money, or veterancy to effectively prosecute a war against a nation that hasn't undergone serious regime change recently? My money is personally on no success, but I'm definitely willing to say that Putin will give it a try. He has leashed his entire wagon to the horse named "expansionism", and he NEEDS some sort of victory to keep any semblance of public support, no matter how jaded his populace might be - otherwise his dictator friends might get ideas on seizing Russian lands.
