Let’s set the record straight

Agreed. It never ceases to amaze how much this lie gets repeated without question. Trump literally escalated every theater of combat he inherited and added a few new ones.

Trump surged Trumps in Afghanistan, he massively upped bombing there too as well as Iraq, Syria, and Somalia. He escalated war in Yemen including special forces raids days into office. He assassinated an Iranian govt official nearly bringing us to war a few times…

Remember those troops who got killed in Niger? Oh yeah that was under Trump too. He threatened war with North Korea and Venezuela and may have supported a bonkers paramilitary attempted invasion of the latter. Am I missing anything?

Oh yeah, HE WANTED TO NUKE A HURRICANE. But sure, he said he was antiwar and if you negate nearly everything he did as President and judge him as to whether he let Erdogan talk him into leaving Syria and drawing down in Afghanistan to basically where he found it then ok.

The idea that the violent, hostile Donald Trump was some kind of a peacenik is ridiculous. It always has been. His idea of peace is to scream, “mess with me and I’ll blow you to smithereens!”, kiss up to tyrants and insult all our allies. It’s a miracle we didn’t have a terrible accident as a result.
