Trump is full of bluster, but I don't think he's inclined to start any wars. He doesn't really care what other countries do, so long as he gets respect. He wants to be liked by other national leaders. He has no ideology to export. He has other ways of riling up his base behind him. And he's not going to want to do the work of having generals explain matters to him and ask him to make hard choices.

Sure hope I'm right.
