Didn’t see it, but heard that Trump was calling out Dubya for the endless wars.

About time. It’s about time that conservatives stop pretending it’s “patriotic” to constantly send our young men and women over to wars that aren’t our business so that they can get their arms and legs blown off or be killed. It’s time to end this nonsense about “either you support the wars or else you don’t support the troops.”

If Trump’s making that case, then it’s a serious, serious point in his favour.

He is making that case, and it is a huge point in his favor.

#41 wrote a book which was published this past November. I haven’t read it but I understand he throws Cheney & Rumsfeld under the bus for their post 9/11 “hawkishness.”

That was one good point Kasich made. We should stay the hell out of civil wars going on in the world. We have no right to change regimes anywhere in the world or attempt to impose democracies where they will never work at the present time, and risk incapacitation or death to our military men and women who have to fight these wars.
