Then he will find an excuse for starting a bogus war.
Because (R)s have always thought war is good business.

The war he starts?

US foreign policy is guided towards constant interventionism at this point. There are about a half dozen countries that we are trying to steer into in terms of conflict at this time. Any of them would have happened with any hawkish president in office. Trump would be no exception.

As far as wars that are distinctly Trump?

That is a much more difficult question to answer. I imagine there will be a conflict with a Chinese surrogate nation before too long.
