Imagine if we imagined a world without war within 100 years and reverse engineered from there. Some people think that’s a naïve idea, but I think what’s naïve is to think the species will necessarily survive another hundred years if we don’t at least try. 1/3

We should have peace games as well as war games. We should have a peace Academy as well as a military Academy. We should have an army of peace builders as well as an army of military fighters. 2/3

The biggest threat to the survival of the species is our unwillingness to expand our imaginations, to even consider the possibility that there might be a better way. We keep indulging the magical thinking that it’s someone else’s responsibility to repair the world. But it’s not. It is ours. 3/3

Imagine a 4yr history of just one president that didn't start one. That would be PDJT😎 @DonaldJTrumpJr @DanScavino @DanaD84027316

And if we would only elect you POTUS, you would be able to keep America out of all wars as well as stop wars between every other country, right?

This reminds me a lot of a song called Imagine...

It's not naive. It's complete disconnected from reality. There are bad people in the world. No amount of diplomacy placates them - Putin, Xi, the Iyatollah, Hamas... Evil can only be dealt with trhustrength. You would cede them power by taking war off the table. More would die

It’s a given war will cease to exist. As will the need for government, police etc because everyone in body is so healed, ethical and genuine to love that all that falls away. Your ideas are helping the process.

I agree we need to actively engage the issue. The fact that we've avoided nuclear war throughout the cold war is an almost unbelievable feat of diplomacy and power balancing where the UN has been instrumental. The fact that the UN is increasingly being viewed as obsolete /1

So how exactly would you achieve that? You offer a lot of lofty ideas, which I don’t think any Democrat would disagree with, but you offer no solutions, and bring no experience in foreign policy or executive leadership and government.
