And the irony is that politicians of both parties have fought efforts by Trump to get us out of those wars. I guess the profits are just too great for either party to have any morality.

In the end he caved anyway so maybe he saw the light on those profits.

That could be. Or he simply gave up this time instead of doing the right thing for this nation. Given that Dems have fought every effort to protect the lives of American citizens, and his party has done very little to support him, that is understandable.
We should always include total costs of the "Security State" which are vastly more than the tiny figures shown for war.
AND, these figures do not include human suffering (our own dead and wounded and so on).
The compounded value of the total security state since 9/11 is probably well north of 25 Trillion dollars.
Now...it's only fair to say that we needed to spend some of that on true defense...and on vets and other stuff. But we easily spent 10 Trillion more than we needed.
That would go a long way toward universal health care and such...

Yet Trump was okay with that reporter being killed and letting the prince get away with it because the money outweighed doing the right thing.

Don't forget the 9/11 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Egypt, and the UAE.
Given those facts, baby bush decided to invade Iraq.
