(35,348 posts)President when we are at war. We all knew he would pull something like this for the election, he made that comment about Obama
getting us in a war to win the election. If Democrats make this an issue they will lose. How do you argue about killing a murderer and win?

Lucian K. Truscott observed:
All this is just more willful ignorance contained within his usual fog of lies. But it was his description of the grief of families meeting the bodies of their dead at Dover Air Force Base that was most illustrative of his abject disdain for human life.

(14,909 posts)Trump committed an act of war for political advantage.
Nothing new, really. US sanctions alone killed 500,000 children alone in the decade after First Gulf War.
