Black Diamond User ID: 24522200 United States 03/24/2018 04:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Trump's staffing actions are hard to figure out. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71765579 On the surface, Bolton seems like a total contradiction to Trump's stance against "stupid politician" wars since Bolton was among the 9/11 PNAC conspirators for that war. What I've learned to do with Trump is ignore his words as much as possible, ignore his cabinet selections, and focus on his actions. E.g., yesterday he signed a 2000-page pile of crap he didn't have to sign. Chalk up a bad action. Chalk up Bolton appointment : bad action x 666 squared. |
LoverofYahshua (OP) User ID: 76323440 United States 03/24/2018 04:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | EVERYONE supported the invasion of iraq in 2003. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74322544 If you disagree you're just young, stupid or delusional. Bull. I opposed that war in 2003 and refused to vote for Bush in 2004 because of his betrayal in promising not to engage in empire building. Trump is doing exactly what W did, promise not to empire build as a candidate and become a vociferous military industrial complex supporter as President. Disappointing. Obama also campaigned on peace. I'm wondering if someone who actually would be opposed to empire building just cannot get elected in this country. |

Who do you want to replace him with? I'd like to replace him with the Trump who promised to stop empire building. To clarify, AC is in alignment with CNN and the criminal leftists who seek impeachment. Are you? Second, state specific example of President Trump "empire building". Not Bolton, Our President. Remember posts just like yours about Tillerson? McMaster? Cohn? Ad infinitum...? Ummm, okay. No problem. Trump has not stopped the mindless war in Afghanistan. Instead he sent MORE troops and is continuing Obama's policy of spending more money on our troops fighting over there. Trump has made so many belligerent remarks toward North Korea, some sort of limited nuclear conflict seems almost inevitable now, especially with war monger John Bolton at the helm now. Trump has not stopped our empire building in any meaningful way. Instead he seems content to allow the Bush/Obama foreign policy continue unfettered. Not what he campaigned on. Ok, you seem well-intentioned. Perhaps we're just working from different definitions of the term, "empire building". North Korea represents a direct threat. Not just to the US. It appears President Trump's strategy will result in talks, signed agreements, and a denuclearization of Korea. Hardly an example of empire building. That's a Nobel peace prize. Afghanistan, yes. It looks like he capitulated. Why do you think that is? "There was one of two things I had a right to, liberty, or death; if I could not have one, I would have the other" -Harriet Tubman |

Quoting: LoverofYahshua Trump made it clear while campaigning that he opposed the 2003 Iraq invasion and that he wanted to stop the empire building of the USA. No more continuous invading of other countries in the name of an ill defined War on Terror. John Bolton not only supported and still supports the 2003 Iraq invasion, but he is known to be one of the most ardent pro-war, pro-invasion, pro-empire building people in DC. Why has Trump done an about face by appointing such a war monger when he campaigned on ending all these mindless wars???? I agree the bill he signed recently is pretty bad, but it seems everyone is so focused on that, they've missed this thing about the Bolton appointment. If John Bolton is able to shape foreign policy and persuade Trump on these issues, that seems to be a far more dangerous development. Maybe I missed this topic being discussed here before, but I wanted to throw this out here. Does anyone think Trump's appointment of Bolton is not only a betrayal of what Trump campaigned on but also a warning that WW3 got that much closer? Did you ever consider as you type from your little room, of what message this sends to other countries like China, Russia and goat lovers around the globe? High IQ people that have ascended to the very top of power and have access to super secret military intelligence might have a little better idea of the best strategy than you or other intergoogle warriors? Bolton is a known war-hawk and can serve as a mouthpiece and buffer for the President. He alone commands the military. Look at the actual actions not what the "experts" say. |
