Wasn’t Bill Maher also for the Iraq War and the other endless wars? Did he ever complain about the trillions spent on those wars to set the Middle East on Fire?
A lot of Democrat “progressives” are fairly indistinguishable from Republican neocon war-hawks when it comes to foreign policy. They want perpetual war and confrontation. Most of them want a war of some kind against Russia. And they’re nevertrump because he won’t give it to them
Even a smart guy like me (haha) was fooled and supported Bush’s Iraq war. But I learn quickly from experience, and can clearly see now what a dumb foreign policy that was. Iraq was not sending bombs to United States, Saddam was actually tying up religious fanatics in Iran for 10 long years.
We dismantled the dictator strong men in middle-east (in Egypt, Libya, Iraq) and ended up installing fanatic Muslims to take over. It proves the folly of trying to create democratic republics in middle-east.
So glad Jeb Bush did not win nomination in 2016. Hillary would have chewed him up and spit him out.
