President Donald Trump On Hannity Tonight: "I wanted to get out. I wish we never went in. The biggest mistake we made in the history of our country was going into the Middle East."

[dfwgator]

That sound you hear is Liz Cheney blowing a gasket.

[RandFan]

AND the Usurper who has been very quiet. The media love to get his take so where is he ?

[entropy12]

Yeah right the Trump family should have camped out at the vote counting facilities night and day. /S

Did you forget Wray was FBI Director?
And Barr was the AG?

"The BIGGEST mistake was allowing the Derp State Big Tech Global Cabal to STEAL the 2020 election. We're seeing the DEADLY consequences of it right now."

Absolutely the root cause post of the day! Kudos to getting us reigned in and kept on point.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Busy trying wipe his fingerprints off this disaster.

[blackdog]

Poor gasket.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

All you FReepers high-fiving Trump's statements are the same ones who cheer-leaded Bush's wars and denounced anyone who opposed it. You're probably still posting on the "Day in the Life of President Bush" threads.

Just realize we were all wrong and commence to chowing down crow.

The neocons (Bush, Cheney, et all) raise my blood pressure more than the democrats. Such waste of blood and treasure.

Bingo. But god also saved Hagar’s son when she deserted him for lack of water after Abram exiled her. So evidently that was also part of god’s plan.

[dfwgator]

Trump opened up a lot of our eyes. A lot of illusions were shattered.

If you’re referring to Beirut in 1983, we left after the bombing of the USMC barracks.
To compare our knowledge in 1983 to 2021 is disingenuous.

[Lurkinanloomin]

The root cause is Usurpation Day.
That is what corrupted the FBI so they would be spying on a President and set up the rigging of the elections.

[Dr. Sivana]

That is why Trump is head and shoulders above Reagan, Bush-41, Bush-43. Those 3 did not understand the folly of fighting in middle-east.

Reagan rightly regretted Lebanon, that is true. Afghanistan was a proxy war with the Soviets, who fought in an absolutely barbaric manner against the Mujahedeen, but the Reagan Doctrine let the Afghans themselves do the fighting, and their main weapon was stingers. I do not regret the fall of the Soviet Union. I believe the Taliban and other rad Muslim groups outside of Iran would have kept things local if we didn't get involved over Kuwait. Reagan also used the "support those fighting for their own freedom" approach in Nicaragua supporting the Contras against Communists on our continent.

My tour guide in Israel got pissed witb me when I spoke up and asked about the Sykes–Picot Agreement. Didn’t want to talk about it as he said....”people wouldn’t know about that.”

Even he was waxing lyrical about the movie “Lawrence of Arabia” and we should watch it.

Go figure. 🙄

[entropy12]

You are so right about the Bush/Cheney cabal. But we are not stubborn idiots. We admit mistakes, learn from them and change the course. Liz Cheney will never learn.

[RandFan]

Being able to change opinion in the face of evidence is admirable in my opinion

Sadly you’ll never hear it from the Bush gang. They have no integrity whatsoever.

Freepers HAVE integrity

[EEGator]

Yes, and it isn’t the Middle East.
He should of just said getting involved with Islam.

[dfwgator]

The First Gulf War was stupid. Kuwait was traditionally a province of Iraq, why was it our business.

And then the stupidity of getting involved in the Balkans.

[entropy12]

OK, I will grant you Reagan was no where as neoconish as the Bush-Cheney gang.

No matter which despot owns the oil, they all gladly will sell it to the West. Even Al Qaeda.
