Trump's embrace of territorial acquisition justified by national security interest will make it impossible for the US to oppose the same thing when other nations try it. This is Russia's and China's dream.
It will be the Wild West, an apt phrase because the best analog isn't Hitler, it's actually the violent, immoral, greed-fest of the white settlement of the American West, egged on by oligarchs (I.e., the railroads) and banks, using the desperation of ordinary people as fuel and political cover.
