I think Trump was pointing out that he was a lesser evil than that of Iranian regime like Stalin was someone we had to cooperate with to defeat Hitler.
Thanks for your reply:
>>>”I think Trump was pointing out that he was a lesser evil than that of Iranian regime like Stalin was someone we had to cooperate with to defeat Hitler.”
Saddam was not an ally of the U.S.; he tried to kill a U.S. president.
Reagan’s approach was more appropriate: “If two of your enemies are fighting, who do you support? The one that’s losing.” And that was a far cry from praising Saddam.
I really appreciate your argument, but I still think this is not a wise topic, position or statement for the GOP now.
