    Except you literally were. And yes, people here are genuinely incorrect about how he handled the military. They keep saying that he had no choice, and it was out of his hands, and it wasn’t his fault, when it was a choice that he clearly made and then bragged about.

      It literally wasn’t his choice and it was in his hands but alongside so many others. He’s not the king bro you don’t seem to understand that. You also don’t seem to understand he’s not making these missions he has people under him.

      Do you have a job? How many times does the boss set an expectation and you or a coworker miss it? You’re being intentionally ignorant, obtuse, and just dishonest.

      Most people here are repeating Republican talking points. He’s a warmonger who literally decreased the amount of war and avoided open conflict the best he could? What a terrible warmonger.

        It literally was explicitly his choice. He is literally the Commander-in-chief. He had every opportunity to pull out, but chose to brag about killing people instead.

        If he had told everyone that we were ending our wars, and they didn’t follow through properly, that’d be on them, not him. Instead he continued on, killing innocent people and joked about it.

          Learn about your own government and what commander in chief means.

          Go learn who dictates legal authority over the military in matters of declaring a war, funding a war and legally ending one. A president can broker peace agreements but he’s not the king.

          You literally do not understand your own government and this why when Trump does as he pleases people don’t seem to understand what is appropriate and not.
