Wondered what reddit thought of current events. Yep, on the cusp of WWIII and they are worried about Trump.

To be fair to them WW3 is something which is unlikely to happen within the next couple of years while Trump approved candidates winning seats is.

I hope you’re right. And frankly, it could be avoided. With unrest brewing across America and Europe, there won’t be much appetite for it.

It's the size of western appetites which makes war most unlikely.

Where are they going to get soldiers from?

Most young European men are either weak or they lack motivation. I suppose the European powers that be might hope to conscript migrants as most of them are military aged men. Of course, most of these migrant men came here for the gibs or to avoid war (the former being the most likely scenario). They're not gonna die for countries they're not native to.

Most Europeans are comfortable. We don't want to fight. So the politicians are rising the prices of energy. Instead we're mad at our politicians.
