I'm neither american nor a fan of conservative politics, so I'm not sure why the **** I should be listening to Fox or right wing pundits or whatever.

And thinking that democrats are automatically doves and republicans are hawks is some Chula level black and white thinking.

Hilary stands for interventionism, while Trump is planning to significantly reduce american military activity around the world.
I'm not sure he'll be able to do it, as you said, the president is not as mighty as people think he is, but the president having that position might have some influence after all and be a step in the right direction.
