Of course, he is lying- pulling an Obama- about us “winning” there, as withdrawing is going to do the same thing there that it did when Obama withdrew from Iraq and created an unguarded amusement park for terrorists and Baathists to return to and take ISIS [the core of which was the very same al-Qaeda-linked group Zarqawi had based in Baghdad back in 2002 or earlier] to the next gory level...which they did, as many predicted.
Hopefully it is a ploy to get the wall... or to make way while Israel is lining up on Iran...otherwise it’s a mistake.
My theory is that most representatives and senators derive compensation through the military - industrial complex. They keep the money flowing to themselves as long as we are fighting a war somewhere . . . which is why we are constantly at war. Lindsey is pi$$ed because Trump is proposing to cut into his income.
Obama deliberately “lost the peace” in Iraq. As far as ISIS goes, I hope Trump takes precautions to keep that from happening. But I view this not so much as Trump soft-balling ISIS, but Trump hitting at the political class where it hurts: in the pocket book. I believe the political class is hopelessly corrupt.
