Joe Lieberman: Why can't 2020 Democrats admit that Soleimani's death makes Americans safer?

President Trump’s order to take out Qasem Soleimani was morally, constitutionally and strategically correct. It deserves more bipartisan support than the begrudging or negative reactions it has received thus far from my fellow Democrats.

The president’s decision was bold and unconventional. It’s understandable that the political class should have questions about it. But it isn’t understandable that all the questions are being raised by Democrats and all the praise is coming from Republicans. That divided response suggests the partisanship that has infected and disabled so much of U.S. domestic policy now also determines our elected leaders’ responses to major foreign-policy events and national-security issues, even the killing of a man responsible for murdering hundreds of Americans and planning to kill thousands more.

Jerome Zeifman was another, but he died in 2010.

People like Joe Lieberman and Scoop Jackson don’t grace us today.

Don’t forget Zeal Miller from Georgia who supported G.W.Bush against the traitor gigolo John Heinz Kerry in 2004.

Because the dems hate Trump more than they love hate America.

Fixed it!

By the end of the operation, U.S. air and surface units had sunk, or severely damaged, half of Iran's operational fleet.

Joe, honestly, go all the way and endorse Trump (and GOP Congress) or STHU.

And another passage from the CITADEL goes something like this: people call the institution the Senate of the United States but in reality its the Senate of the States.
