God he's still obsessed with her - get over it, she's got nothing to do with Politics right now. As soon as Trump's popularity started to come into question it was pretty clear that he would have to do something dramatic to prove that he was a strong leader to his fanbase. War will do it. Doesn't matter that it's a terrible idea, there could be at least an attempt at diplomacy here - nope. President bone spurs wants a war, in the same way a reality show needs a dramatic event. I really hope that in the event he actually gets hounded out of the White House he tries to jump the bit of the Mexican Wall that is built as a tribute to that guy Colton in the Bachelorette

That's a 4 alternative decision, not ether/or: Baubo, Greek "Sacred Fool", only one of many. So "both", "neither" and "either" are all acceptable outcomes. The most likely outcome, based on your many posts here and not relying solely on any 1 is "not fool". For a decision on the goddess question, can you walk on water?...
