I am honestly unsure why the characterization of Trump as anti-war overlooks his stated desire to "order the Department of Defense to make appropriate use of special forces, cyber warfare, and other covert and overt actions to inflict maximum damage on [Mexican] cartel leadership, infrastructure, and operations." Whether or not you think that's justified, it is a very clear statement of intent to use military force on foreign territory, at our discretion. And that's a quote from 2023.
