Fox News says 2003 clip shows Trump's Iraq War opposition

[DonViejo]

Fox News Channel on Tuesday released a 2003 video clip that it says shows Donald Trump doubting the Iraq War effort.

Under the headline, "2003 clip backs up Trump on Iraq War opposition," Fox News posted a clip from "Your World With Neil Cavuto," in which Trump criticizes the George W. Bush for not being decisive.
"Well, he's either got to do something or not do something perhaps, because perhaps he shouldn't be doing it yet," Trump said in 2003. "And perhaps we should be waiting for the United Nations,” he added.

Howard Stern in a 2002 radio interview asked Trump whether he supported invading Iraq.

"Yeah, I guess so," Trump replied. "I wish the first time it was done correctly."

The video clip released Tuesday by Fox News has been blasted on social media, with some pointing out that Trump praised the war effort in subsequent interviews with Cavuto.

1. LOL

I've seen that clip before. It's absurd that Fox News is claiming that that shows his opposition to the Iraq War. On what planet is that statement proof of him opposing the war?!?!

[unblock]

2. because foxnews and the right-wing are all about "waiting for the united nations"

3. The whole rightwing is on the defense

Its a heartwarming thing to see these clowns
with their backs against the wall, fumbling, bumbling
and over-explaining.

4. Someone must have called Hannity

He and his crack team got right on it.

5. Well, I'm certainly impressed by his executive decisiveness.

6. That clip was not a secret, and it doesn't say what Fox says

Trump said Bush could or could not go to war. Basically, he said nothing
