Hitler invaded Poland to plunder the country to stave off another impending economic collapse of Germany, thanks to his runaway excessive government spending. In that sense, he was distracting the Germans from being revealed on how bad of an administrator he was. Trump invaded Venezuela and wants to annex Greenland to distract people from the fact that he is a pedophile. And that's a helluva weirder reason to go to war for distraction...

Economists said that Kamala was a better choice but people thought otherwise.
The same economists who serve the system that brought us imperialism and wars. The same economists who think Capital expansion and military interventions are 'necessary evil' in the GDP.
