Wonder how we won in Grenada though.

People who won't and can't change their minds are the really stupid ones.

IOW, you and the rest of Trump's hardcore idiot supporters will continue supporting your Dear Leader no matter how much he flip flops. That's what cult members do. Will you drink the Koolaid when he tells you to drink?

We will otherwise be gift wrapping another country for Iran to adopt while not without having to pay the bill. That money could be better spent here.

Amazing, we have no money for healthcare yet have $1.4 Trillion to burn in Iraq and now more in Afghanistan.

I agree with you 100% on Iraq. I think Bush Jr. went in because he thought it was unfinished business. It was stupid. Saddam had nothing to do with 9/11.
And, Bush got a lot of people killed and spent a lot of money arguably for nothing.

For a long time now the British Military has come to the conclusion that Afghanistan is a waste of effort and has spent their time there conserving the lives of their soldiers.

They didn't name it the 'Graveyard of Empires' for nothing.
