This hits the nail on the head. Republicans would gain more traction if they quit playing nice about this. What the Democrat party has been doing with the Iraq issue has emboldened the enemy and has resulted in further endangerment of our soldiers. There should have been a single voice coming from America on Iraq and terrorism but instead we had one party not just desert a President they did not like but also deserted the interests of their own country.
This is not new, it is just more apparent today than at any other time since Vietnam. They also did everything they could as a party to undermine Reagan during the cold war. They even wrote that we had to accept that the greatness of America was coming to an end and even now they appear to long for a day when American sovereignty is gone and replaced by the UN. It has become very clear that a vote for the Democrat party is inextricably intertwined with a vote for the enemy. The enemy knows this. They know which party is the party of American weakness. The same party that is largely responsible for the moral decay that is despised in the MiddleEast.
The left instead seem to be totally oblivious to the fact that they would be the primary targets by Islamic sharia law. They seem to not understand that civil rights as they define them (sexual immorality and deviancy) would face severe suppression. They don’t seem to realize that the weakness which is inherent in their world view of peace is an invitation for invasion and attack.
The leftist leaders would ensure they were well protected. As for their followers, once Western civilization was destroyed, they'd have no further use.
The Republican presumptive nominee knows how to not play nice...with other Republicans. But when it comes to his "friends across the aisle", he only seems to know how to play nice.
