Escalating anti-LGBT+ hate and the terrorism it inspires

Knock on wood, but one thing Trump fortunately doesn't seem interested in doing is getting involved in any wars, so he probably has no reason to care about the military's effectiveness anyway.

Hate to be a downer, but I remember people touting GW Bush as a “peaceful”, non-interventionist president back in 2000, and look how that turned out.

At least we have four years of precedent for the idea that Trump isn't interested in deploying the military against other countries.

Past is prologue, not epilogue. Trump may or may not deploy the military abroad in a conflict. I wouldn't make any assumptions that he'll refrain.

Military will be to busy fighting fellow Americans to worry about invading foreign soil at the rate we're going. They are already talking about using the National Guard from red states to enforce government policy in blue states. 'Bout as close to civil war as we've been in a century and a half.
