Of course TR would be a Republican. He'd be a manlier Lindsey Graham, calling for the invasion of Syria and Iraq except this time we'll stay and make them territories under permanent occupation, dammit! That's the only way to deal with those savages! Democrats want to coddle uncivilized tribes just like they did in my day when they pressed us to get out of the Philippines, but we won't stand for that!
At this rate that's not a half bad idea.
Although the Philippines suggests we're neither particularly terrible nor particularly good afternoon the whole colonisation thing.
