4. Trump is functionally illiterate so he never read about the Nuremberg Trials

One of the worst crimes many of the Nazis were convicted of was “waging aggressive war.” If Trump leaves office before he dies he should face a war crimes tribunal.

Key Aspects of Aggressive War at Nuremberg
Crimes Against Peace: The International Military Tribunal (IMT) prosecuted "Crimes Against Peace," which specifically covered aggressive war.
Definition: This included planning, preparing, initiating, or waging a war of aggression, or participating in a common plan to do so.
Significance: Nuremberg established that individuals, not just states, could be held accountable for starting wars, rejecting the "act of state doctrine" that previously shielded leaders.
Examples: Charges included planning aggression against numerous countries like Poland, France, the Soviet Union, and the U.S., leading to convictions for senior Nazis like Göring and Ribbentrop.
Legacy and Evolution
Nuremberg Principles: The trials' findings led to principles recognizing aggressive war as a crime, later adopted by the UN.
Modern Law: While the International Criminal Court (ICC) focuses on genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity, the concept of aggression remains a core principle, with efforts continuing to strengthen its prosecution.
