Who cares? Private citizen Trump had no vote in the war either way. I don’t know what his personal opinion was on it... I don’t care.
This is why I hate the media with every fiber of my being.
Trump's opinion was just that, an opinion.
He gave lukewarm at best support if you want to call it that, prior to the invasion.
The REAL questions should be directed at Hillary.
She had access to all kinds of classified information at the time, and voted FOR the war.
Now she calls it a "mistake".
OK, Hillary, explain the "mistake".
The war, or your vote for it.
Whatever Trump thought is irrelevant.
Obama rode the tide of "It was all a mistake to go into Iraq in the first place", all the way to the WH.
And to make matters worse, he pulled the troops out, declared victory, and claimed that he had no choice, because of Bush's SOFA timeline.
He is the POTUS.
He could have just as easily said that circumstances have changed, and we need to finish the job.
In retrospect, pulling all of our men out WAS a mistake.
We will debate until the end of time whether the war was a mistake, but pulling out and leaving a vacuum for ISIS to fill was DEFINITELY a mistake.
Once you have engaged, you stay until there is complete victory.
Hell, we still have forces in Germany 60 years after WWII.
