      They dropped 2 nukes on Japan, killed 20% of DPRK and destroyed nearly every building, used Agent Orange and killed millions of citizens in Vietnam. They killed so many people on Iraq no one is sure exactly how many died. They turned the most prosperous county in Africa into a failed state that never recovered.

      This is just off hand what I could think of. I get what OP is saying, but this may be the first time a sizable portion of the US public is actually aware of the scale of what this country actually does.

      I mean Trump kills - say - 1,000s of people in a day. There are no military objectives and Trump doesn’t even pretend that there are. It’s just the mass slaughter of bombing cities.
