Not quite, I said you had a hard time accepting it, and you did (it only took you 7 pages of back and forth to admit it), and yet you still say it's moot. But you know what? Fine. Fair enough.
So based on that, this time, I'll indulge:
I asked you this in the pages prior (you didn't answer), if Obama took ownership of the wars once he got into office, that means once he left he was no longer to blame then. Right? I mean, technically they're Trump's wars now, no? If we're still there in 2-3 years you'll say they're Trump's wars? I'm only exercising your logic.
Obama hugely expanded the war in Afghanistan. At one point he had more troops there than were ever in Iraq. And he achieved nothing.
Obama also got us involved in wars in Yemen, Syria, and Libya.
I think $7T is probably low when you consider the human costs to the American soldiers maimed or killed on all those pointless wars.
Why did the Democrats support these War Mongers?
To be fair, majority of democrats in legislature opposed these wars and majority of Republicans supported them.
Obama was opposed to Iraq war from very beginning.
Hillary on the other hand is a Clintonite, so I'm not surprised by her vote.
Obama started the current war in Iraq. He said Iraq was a stable, self-reliant nation when he pulled out. Then he went back in. 8 years of war in Afghanistan. What a mess he left.
But Hillary Clinton, Trump's opponent in the last election, gleefully voted for the Iraq War while munching on Freedom Fries and pouring French wine down the sewer. (yeah, we know she really drank it)
So Trump's point proved by your own standard.
Nobody cares about Hillary anymore, at least not among actual voters.
The reality is both parties wasted a fortune there, but who is Trump to talk? He's wasted a fortune in all the businesses he's ruined and is going to run up the debt in his pay-day loan scam tax plan. And you can't tell me with a straight face he wouldn't have bombed the Mid East into ruin had he been in the same position as Bush or Obama.
Just more mouthing off from the King in Orange.
