Wake up. 12 months ago all any right wingers on here could write is "Corporatist Hillary loves those Saudi's! I saw the emails! We aren't the world's policemen!"

Now no one seems to care. At that, those same people cheer trump like some kind of hero. Pretty sick stuff.

LOL. In your own article.........."the Obama administration had offered Saudi Arabia over 115 Billion in arms"

Did you start a thread every time Obama sold arms, and say how the democrats love war, and chaos? I think not hypocrite.
Instead of engaging in another partisan insult, why don't you answer the question: why is this now okay because it's the Trump administration?

With Trump at the helm, I'm sure this is quite a possibility -- it's his signature move.

You are forever posting about how entertained you are by observing one thing or another.

Are confined in some fashion? Do you need help?

It's not okay.

Wasn't okay then. Isn't okay now. And definitely isn't in keeping with Trump's promise to keep our nose out of other nations' business.

Did Obama promise not to get involved in the business of other nations?

I don't recall that.

I'll answer. Republicans are pro-war. McCain and Graham rooted on Obama's wars in Libya and Syria. The world will be a better safer place when they both finally die.

So Trump is just doing what he is expected to do. He said he would do it.

Obama said he was not going to be that person. I expect and want an alternative. Where is it? Hillary would have been doing this very same thing.

So after saying that no, it doesn't make it OK but it makes it hugely hypocritical for those who refused to condemn Obama and voted for Hillary to condemn Trump.

Obama, Hillary, Trump and others all deserve to rot in hell for the destruction they are and have caused. Where were these complaints under Obama? Why did so many vote for this with Hillary?

Where is the alternative to this?
