My take on this is never believe anything "government" tells you. And Abcnews is a part of the game.
Don't get caught in the matrix.
And it doesn't matter what he wanta to do. What really matters is the millions of cattle who believe he has power over them are gping to do. Keep following a war mongeror or take personal responsibilty and stop being a slave by realizing "rule by force" has gotten us nowhere.
Does this happen often? I am not a US citizen, but somehow feel from a distance that the US government (esp. Trump) is not trustworthy.
You do not need to be in the same geographic area to see the same thing happening all over the world.
