This Howard Stern appearance is as close as the anti Trump smear campaign by the GOPe establishment can get to spinning the truth to make it sound like Trump "flip flopped" on supporting the Iraq war of W.

If you listen to Trump's statement correctly on Stern - it shows no real support for the second Iraq Bush war and was a statement as part of a free flowing conversation at a time when the war was not even a sure thing.

I have to add - the GOPe us trying to find some evidence that Trump was against the war - but what this shows is that the official George Bush party line that the War is a good thing is dead. Because it took political smarts and guts to stand up and decry the war in Iraq that W insisted on.

So all you people trying to attack Trump by saying he was not against the Iraq war - does that mean being against the Iraq war like Trump stated is the correct and smart position to take?

Trump's position that to have been against the second Iraq war is now the winning position and he has shown his judgement on that war as a layperson was superior to Hillary Clinton's and the rest of the GOP field (except Rand Paul) and that is why the GOPe are trying to minimize it and take that narrative away from Trump.

Thank you for giving your view on that.

Do you think Trump holds any responsibility at all for what you see as a “smear campaign against him?”
