Trouble is those wars are winding down, armaments orders waning job losses in the sector looming if peace breaks out.

Yes he may have inherited these conflicts but he has done nothing to wind them back, just the opposite.

* More Troops in Afghanistan (big back flip here on past promises)
* Built more military bases in illegally in the sovereign nation of Syria. Attacked the legitimate Government forces with missiles and airstrikes that killed civilians and soldiers fighting ISIS.
* Increased rhetoric and threats to Iran (more sanction in the pipeline)
* Increased rhetoric and sanctions on Venezuela
* Increased military bases, assets and exercises around Russia and China
* Inflamed the North Korean crisis more by refusing to use dialog, increasing sanctions, more military assets and exercises.
* Significantly increased defense spending
* Antagonised key regional allies Turkey and Pakistan
* Supports the Kurdish project that will destabilise the region into further war
* Continues to support a growing NATO (another big back flip here)

Under his administration ISIS has successfully grown in Afghanistan, Philippines and soon to be in Myanmar will magically appear.

The only small consolation prize is ISIS has shrunk in Syria/Iraq. But that mostly due to the Syrian government with Russian help and Iraqi PMU forces.

I can't see how he won't increase his warmongering given the majority of people advising and influencing him are military men in the Whitehouse. We have a soft military coup by default on foreign policy.

The UN speech is just the same all bullying and hypocrisy we come to expect by those who don't confirm to America's self-anointed vie
