- The Donald parades in a ludicrous left-wing canard.
Donald Trump took a page from MoveOn.org in the Republican debate in South Carolina on Saturday night.
Speaking of the Bush decision to go to war in Iraq, Trump asserted: “I want to tell you, they lied. They said there were weapons of mass destruction. There were none. And they knew there were none.â€
The “they†means George W. Bush, and (we must assume) basically Bush’s administration and entire security and foreign-policy and intelligence team.
Trump’s accusation is outrageous. This is Code Pink/International A.N.S.W.E.R.-type stuff. Is Donald Trump trying to win the Cindy Sheehan vote?
What Trump said here is what we would expect from a left-wing blogger at the Daily Kos, not from the Republican front-runner for the White House.
The idea that George W. Bush lied about WMDs is a ludicrous left-wing canard that should be on the ash-heap of history.
