    You understand the difference between threatening someone with WW3, and warning someone that they might actually start WW3, right?

    Trump isn’t the one who will trigger nor participate in WW3 in neither scenario.

      Respectfully, I don’t know how you could sit through his first four years, and definitely not the last six weeks, and dismiss anything he says out of hand at this point.

      You are being unreasonable.

        I do not do that, but a reasonable person must acknowledge Trump is not threatening the world with WW3.

          Do you want ww3?

          He specifically asked while in a position of absolute power…

          The setting and situation definitely would suggest a threat to anyone. Not sure what’s so hard to understand about this.

            Threatening with WW3 implies Trump would unleash WW3, you know that’s not the case.

            Trump is warning Zelenskyy that escalating the war further has the potential to trigger WW3 with Russia escalating too and European countries joining the war.

            The US is not interested in participating.
