Tell me again I forgot.
How many wars did Trump get us into?

Well he is supplying them the tools to slaughter civilians... And said that Israel has his Full Support for as long as it takes.
Still have the gall to even mention Trump's administration in any discussion of foreign policy ffs. I seem to remember Mike Pompeo and Trump heralding Jerusalem as being Israel's. Totally not contraversial and lowered tensions by a lot.
.
 
Last I checked we are involved in and supplying two wars Israel / Hamads and Ukraine / Russia.
Really, Congress declared war on Hamas and Russia? You'd think that would have a) made the news b) had full support of Republicans since they love American imperialism edit: and the military-industrial complex

Trump was not a "normal" Republican president. I agree he wasn't particularly a war-monger (about the only non-negative thing one could find to say about him), and I think that's just because of his lack of interest in the world outside the US and complete lack-of-confidence in dealing with foreign policy.

But it's debatable whether he made wars more or less likely with his erratic behaviour and tendency towards power-worship. To a degree he just got lucky in that respect.


How many did Biden, Obama, or Clinton get into ?

How many did Bush, Bush, and Trump get us into?

Lel, I swear you don’t think these responses thru

Clinton bombed Serbia, and that pharmaceutical plant in Somalia Sudan, and Obama bombed Libya.

Both major parties in the US have frequently been quite keen on going to war, just for different reasons. The US is just a very militarist and nationalist country, for good and/or ill.

Agreed Bush and Bush were active in wars in Kuwait, Iran, Afganistan... Clinton was fine and Trump didn't get us in a war.

Biden has us involved in two wars.

I didn't say that, can't you read?

Are you going to deny that we are involved in by supplying them weapons and ammunition.

Yea, no doubt, it’s why it’s a stupid thing to even bring up, which is probably why geek brought it up.

USA loves it wars, and those wars make big bucks for the right people.

U gonna mention that crazy time when the parties realigned?
 
Threads just naturally wander off the initial topic, because that's the nature of political arguments. I don't really get the assiduous topic-policing some seem to be keen on. If there's nothing new to be said about the initial subject matter for a while, it's very likely it will go off on tangents.
Just surprised this thread isn't yet about housing zoning.
 
If/when Rudee gets done in court after not starting any wars (other than with his mouth) , will he have to give up his mansions and find housing in a differently zoned area?

Sure, threads evolve, and sometimes there posters that consistently try to distract

I think Trump's assassination of the Iranian general and the Iranian missile attack on American soldiers in response shook Trump out of his delusions for a brief moment. Trump realized that his game wasn't a game he understood and that he could get a lot of people killed for no profit to himself. His decision to deescalate was surprisingly wise, totally out of character.

PCGeek, are you afan of Rudy? Is that why you are trying to derail this thread, so that you do not see more posts saying bad things about Rudy?

He got right back in character by saying soldiers merely suffered from headaches though.

Harry Truman was in office at the start of Korea - Republican
DD Eisenhower was in office at start of Vietnam - Republican
William McKinley Spanish American War - Republican
James Madison War of 1812 - Jeffersonian/Democratic-Republican Party

You can take those off the Democrat list. I was able to find by just cross referencing dates.
