Trump likes military parades and military order but he's not seriously threatening to full-scale invade our neighbors.

Trump has only a minor interest in the US armed forces abroad. He wanted to use the armed forces to invade and conquer Venezuela for its oil. He's not interested in sending troops far or away to conquer.

Trump wants all or virtually all of the military in the continental United States.

To use against his "enemy within" (see my sig at the type of my username) dissidents. Of course the military will not do anything of the sort, but that's what's constantly rattling around inside Trump's empty head.

For Trump the military has one use only and it is against dissenters and to reinforce his dictatorship throughout all 50 states. But and as I point out, the military will not do this, not in a million years it won't.
