Oh come on. The only reason the free world exists is because of U.S. military might. Russia would invade Europe yesterday if we weren't there. And Europe is not a U.S. ally. They are a group of countries that continually undermine U.S. interests and freedoms.

Wow, I guess that is why they have their citizens fighting and dying in Afghanistan and Iraq with us.

Pray tell, Trump is the commander-in-chief, is he not? I guess it would just be another constitutional crisis.

Bring home EVERY troop from EVERY military base in EVERY SINGLE foreign country.

The U.S. taxpayer is currently forced to forfeit over $700 billion a year to fund a worldwide hegemonic military empire; it's long past time to let that money stay in our paychecks.

Oh please. The pitiful few hundred troops the EU sends to war zones is nothing but virtue signaling.

Trump could do it tomorrow.

Congress is required to declare war, not peace.

Trump could announce he is bringing every soldier home by the holidays and then order Mattis to do so.

I mean every soldier home. From Iraq, Afghanistan, Italy, ...

If he did that, Sessions wouldn't even have to legalize weed, I'd vote for him in 2020.
