Literal draft dodger who has overseen massive cuts to the VA and other support services and who ordered the new fleet of aircraft carriers be refitted at great cost to the taxpayer because he thought the new catapult system didn't look as cool as the old one.

So the American reaction to militarism after the fall of our own military dictatorship will be not to skew towards pacifism, but to double down on it, in contrast to pretty much every other country that's had similar experiences and in defiance of what one might expect looking at the data in those countries?
Seems like wishful thinking to me.

Switching to an older formal military dress is fine.
Switching to an outdated and less efficient system to launch aircraft from aircraft carriers simply because it looks cooler ain't fine.
Also, you trying to justify it with "we're also switching back to pinks and greens because they look cooler" is stupid.

I mean, like, I wouldn't agree with just advocating for a junta for it's own sake either- but saying that we need to do it to avoid being "soft" or whatever like the Europeans, while simultaneously acknowledging that that perceived softness is a direct result of Europe's experiences with militarism and authoritarianism seems... counterintuitive.
Unless the idea is that THIS dictatorship really will finally be the one that successfully lasts for 10,000 years or whatever lol which is even dumber

You say that, but “Do everything because it looks and sounds cool” worked for Gurren Lagann. >.>

According to Vassenor Europe is the way it is because of representative democracy.
