Trump has the better head for policy.

We all supported W during the Iraq war but the reality is just about of it has been lost. Trump brings the point home that we spent trillions and lost thousands of lives and we have nothing to show for it. We are ashamed; we should be ashamed.

W and our allies at one time had Iran surrounded and under tough sanctions. But hindsight tells us that W should have pressed forward to defeat Iran on his watch or he should have never gone into Iraq to begin with.

It’s difficult to criticize W for the results seen today, but he should have known that a democrat following him would screw it up and screw it up they did in spades. There was too much to leave at stake.

In retrospect, W should have brought a request for Congress to declare war on Iran. Even if it would be voted down, it would have put W on the right side of history. Instead, W followed his father’s propensity to form an international force along the lines of the NWO and go into the business of ‘nation building’. That approach is a failure.

When W, like his daddy, pulled back on the military and tried to tackle Iraq with typical, bloated, bureaucratic government ideas they both lost.

Truman put McArthur in charge of Japan after the surrender. W picked a donor and friend that was a bureaucratic moron and he lost the peace.

F the Bushes. I’ve NEVER liked them. I HATED GHWBush in 1980, hated him as VP and really hated him and W when they destroyed the Reagan legacy by wiping everyone out after 41 took office in 1989.

Then I learned to truly hate and despise them when they BOTH lied and took advantage of Reagan’s death for their own political and personal gain. When GHWBush said “I learned more in 8 years about politics as VP than I have in my life” if vomited. LIAR!

The Bushes HATED RONALD W. REAGAN!!
