A columnist revealed on Wednesday that President Donald Trump has used one of his social media accounts to break a core promise to his base.
David Rothkopf, a columnist for The Daily Beast, argued in a new column that Trump is backtracking on his promise to MAGA that he would not start any new wars. Rothkopf mentioned the administration’s strikes against alleged drug boats in international waters and his threatening Truth Social post against Nicolas Maduro’s regime in Venezuela as evidence of Trump’s escalating steps toward war.
Trump’s recent Truth Social post labeled Venezuela’s government as a “FOREIGN TERRORIST ORGANIZATION,” and added that the president had directed the military to “Oil, Land and other Assets” that were “stolen” from the U.S.
“Wasn’t one of the reasons Trump’s base elected him was so there would be no more American wars? Do you think they’ll notice?” Rothkopf asked.
“This might all seem disturbing, but not so relevant to Americans who are more concerned with paying for groceries, losing their jobs or going bankrupt trying to pay for their healthcare, amid widely-spreading epidemics, because a heroin addict with a brain worm and no grasp of science is now in charge of medicine in the U.S. And of course, that makes good sense,” Rothkopf added.
“Those are all really important things to be concerned by,” he continued. “It should also go without saying that trying to distract the country from the disastrous consequences of these disastrous Trump policies is the whole reason we’re wagging this dog south of the border anyway.”
