Democrats now in favor of foreign wars because Trump isn't.

A good example of the halo effect? If Trump is literally worse than Hitler then everything he does should be opposed... and he wants to withdraw military forces, then I guess the anti Hitler thing to do is engage in more war.

Is this good? Oil will continue to be used, is it good for the US to lead in its production - perhaps there will be a greater emphasis on doing it as well and as clean as possible here in contrast to middle east counties and Russia?

"In December, the United States reached a staggering level of oil production, pumping some 11.6 million barrels per day. For the first time since 1973, America is now the world’s largest oil producer."

Instead of nightmares, I have a kiddo who says "night mirrors" which really seems like a more accurate term.
