We are seeing a resurgence of the isolationist wing of the Republican Party. Trump strikes a cord with me in avoiding Forever Wars, but I like his vigorous action against enemies like Iran and Isis. Get in and get our quick. Mere isolationism is a mistake, just as it was in the years leading up to WWII.

Okay, fine. But that doesn’t make the Iraq War a war crime. That was the same kind of lunacy that Trump was floating in the primary debates when he said Bush should have been impeached for invading Iraq. And Trump did give tepid support for that war vet early on.
What is it with these guys (and Tucker Carlson) and the Iraq War? Thinking it’s a bad idea is one thing, but a war crime? Really?

Entirely agree with you Greg.
