At the risk of "but Obama"-ing, he sent the US military into Yemen, Libya, Pakistan, Uganda, Syria, Jordan and Turkey (because of Syria), did drone strikes in Somalia, ships in the Straight of Hormuz, and did a 30,000 troop surge in Afghanistan.

The Right/Left line on military use has kind of been blurred. Hillary Clinton's line of "we came, we saw, he died" on the US intervention in Libya is a pretty indisputable bit. Lol

All that said, John Bolton is a whole different category. If anyone is going to drag the US into a full fledged war with another country, it's going to be Bolton. Wouldn't mind at all if he was no longer in any kind of position of power.

Agree with most of this, especially the Obama, Hillary Bolton parts. 

Would only hedge that Dems may still have more peaceniks--Sanders, Warren, Williamson for example.
