He believes that would open doors to staying in office beyond his term and would allow him to become even more of a dictator.

He's wrong about both, of course. He won't live to see the end of this term, much less into another one. That's my opinion, based on his observable health issues.

But, yes, Trump would love to have a nice, little, tidy war.
