I was frustrated too, Ron. Bush just took it and took it. He really let them get away with turning people against what our soldiers had accomplished in Iraq.

Doug, it’s one thing I wish Trump understood better.

Whether folks want to admit it or not, Iraq is much better today than it was in 2002.

If we had left 10,000 troops there, as was designed, ISIS would not have advanced through the region.

As you pointed out, our troops fought a very hard war and achieved victory. I am very proud of them, and they were very proud of their achievement.

Iraq is not a threat to anyone today. It isn’t paying terrorists. It isn’t making verbal threats.

I don’t know how anyone can dispute that it is better.
