I recall Trump making a statement against the Bush war. Yet another reason to dislike him.

Nevertheless, he’s what we’ve got, so....

Bush has never once defended his war. It’s the theme the left has run with. No WMDs. Remember.

Oddly enough, Clinton is now the pro-war candidate, and Trump is the “war only as final resort” candidate.

He has amazing ability to turn things around.

At the time I would have agreed with you . Looking back he was right.

Except for the little fact that Bush was wrong.

Why? He was right.

Trump, like many others, realized early on that Bush's wars would destabilize the region and create a power vacuum (just like Obama and Hillary accomplished in Libya and want to accomplish in Syria). The war's critics had the sense to see a mistake as it unfolded and propose that we climb out of the self-made hole, unlike the Bush yes-men, who just kept on digging after hitting bottom.

I’ll vote for him anyway. Do I have an alternative.

Anyone on Free Republic would make a better debate coach for Trump than who he is currently using.

Anyone.
