Hard to believe, but there is a poll that showed just 26% of the people who voted for Hillary also want troops withdrawn from Syria. That means 74% want them there, and in fact, Biden’s people will escalate Syrian conflict if elected. Some of his foreign policy staff have said just that.

Meanwhile, Trump is doing all he can to withdraw everyone from Syria, along with massive withdrawals from Afghanistan and Iraq. Trump also supports withdrawing some troops from Germany and South Korea. He wants these military members home and out of harm’s way, but what does the media do in response?

Accuse him of calling the troops losers. That’s why they made up that story, to hit back and force him to keep troops abroad.

Also, the whole Ukraine impeachment was a direct result of Trump wanting to scale back weapons sales to the Ukraine. Vindman became disturbed by a simple phone call, when in fact, he was really disturbed by his beloved Ukraine maybe not getting enough access to weapons of war. Not that he cares so much about Ukraine, but he cares about the defense industry that he will be working for soon after he retires.

Bottom line, the Democrats (and Republican Classic which have endorsed Biden) are now the party of the Military Industrial Complex, and Republicans are now the party of not letting our youth die in useless foreign engagements that do nothing for national security.

So congratulations Democrats, by voting for Biden, you are also voting for an underprivileged youth, who has just joined the Army in an attempt to pull himself and his family out of poverty, to be killed in a land far away for corporate gain.

Vote for Trump and end this madness once and for all.

Trump deserves a nobel peace prize for overseeing the most peaceful administration in the past few decades.

Syria was one of Americas allies in our fight against ISIS, and 11,000 Syrians lost their lives fighting ISIS. And when the US withdrew from Syria it put our Syrian allies in great danger.

According to high level military leaders Trump abandoning our Syrian allies will cause other countries to no longer trust America, and those countries will no longer fight with America (because of fears America will leave them to die.)
https://www.militarytimes.com/opinio...-syria-gambit/

And "Both political parties have criticized the Trump administration for withdrawing U.S. troops from northern Syria" and "Trump's pullout from Syria allowed ISIS to rebuild and gain strength."

At first Trump wanted "a full withdrawal from Syria", then Trump changed his mind and now wants "a small-scale reshuffling and redeployment." Trump changed his mind about Syria because he wants to "secure the oil.”

Your thread is titled "Democrats are the true warmongers." The GW Bush administration sent US troops to Iraq and Afghanistan.

Fox News confirmed that Trump mocked US troops as ‘suckers.’

A Military Industrial Complex is when defense corporations influence a government, and those defense corporations get the government to purchase more weapons (to increase the military corporations profits.)

Donald Trump publicly brags about increasing military spending, Trump says no president has ever "spent more on defense."
https://angrybearblog.com/2019/12/tr...-spending.html

"President Trump has repeatedly boasted of being a boon for the military."
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/09/u...ry-claims.html

In 2017 Trump increased defense spending by 10%.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milita...lion%20dollars.

How can Trump be anti-Military Industrial Complex, when he greatly increases military spending?

President Trump has publicly boasted that "his nuclear button is "much bigger" and "more powerful" than North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's."
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-42549687

Trump publicly said "North Korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen."
https://www.azquotes.com/quote/1594552

Trump publicly said he wants "the US Navy to destroy Iranian gunboats that harass US ships" (when American military policy has always been to not destroy them.)
https://www.businessinsider.com/here...unboats-2020-4

And in a Oval Office meeting about Venezuela President Trump asked his top aides the following question, "With a fast unraveling Venezuela threatening regional security, why can't the U.S. just simply invade the troubled country?"
Trump pressed aides on Venezuela invasion, US official says | Fox News


President Trump abandons American military allies leaving them to die, he causes other countries to fear joining America as military allies, he wants US soldiers in other countries "to secure oil", he publicly brags about his nuclear weapons button, he threatens nuclear war on other countries, he threatens to destroy and kill non-threatening military forces, and he wants to invade countries like Venezuela.

Could you explain how in regards to the military, Joe Biden is madness and Donald Trump is not?

Well this is true actually. I don't like Trump, but he was the ONLY one that said Iraq was a mistake and he wants to bring troops home, which he is actually doing. Maybe the troops can protect our cities from the crazy left.

We have had record drone strikes under Trump, and he also blatantly lied about the troop withdrawal in Afghanistan which never actually happened. Trump is as hawkish as any other politician.

Now, Obama also had terrible foreign policy - but it seems to be a pattern regardless of the party.

False. We have had less drone strikes under Trump than under Obama...we also haven't executed an American citizen overseas.
