Yes, exactly, I completely agree, because what's the alternative? Just rolling over and accepting the decline of the empire? Capital wants these wars. If Trump was acting against capital, he wouldn't be president right now. Democrats represent a slightly different faction of capital with large overlaps to the one Republicans represent. Slightly more finance, more global. Faced with a multifaceted crisis the Democrats too would have used the one main tool they have left and escalated militarily.
