As I recall, it was tariffs that triggered imposed by the US in 1932 that triggered the world wide depression (which led to WW II)

Trump also seems to believe foreigners pay tariffs. It's the importer; not the exporter who pays

Confused I am by this enigmatic man who acts as if he rules the nation rather than administers the Executive Branch of our government

Many things led to WWII, but you can draw a direct line from WWI to WWII. If the US had not entered WWI, both sides in the conflict would have given up and made peace. However, it's also true that there would have been war; due to man's selfish nature, war is inevitable. There will be WWIII, really a continuation of WWII, as WWII solved nothing. The US and it's allies will lose WWIII, but the US is still so powerful, it will impose the 'mark of the beast' in Revelation 13. The 'mark' is revealed in my third little booklet, which you can read for free at www.discourseonagape.org

Did you really think that selfishness could last forever? Selfishness is self limiting, and is the source of all our unhappiness. I think I make a good case for that in my main booklet, Discourse On Agape.
