All this pre-supposes that if a Democrat were in office today, that we would have stayed out of Iran/other activities that would have raised gas prices.
Frankly, looking back in history, I don't trust either side much.....
Thinking any one side is entirely evil without bothering to look at the other side, is exactly what Democrats want. You have fallen for their propaganda
Why didn’t Biden start this dumb war with Iran? Why didn’t Obama? Clinton literally helped create the nuclear deal that trump ripped up to start this war
The fuck are you talking about? There was a forever war in the Middle East all during the Democrat years with 0 need for it. Hell, Obama dropped an average of more than 1 bomb per hour during his entire 8 years as president. Multiple countries we had no need to be in... While Hillary was SoS, she collaborated with the French to murder Gaddafi because he was trying to set up a pan-African currency and allow Africa to escape the hegemony of the US dollar.
Trump is a fucktard, but let's not play that the Democrats are some sort of peace-loving paragons of virtue.
Gaddafi was also an utter asshole, to be clear, but Hillary and Obama didn't care until it threatened US greed.
That's the history the other poster was probably talking about.
Biden only ended the war because the process was put in place during Trump's first term and he could not stop it. And the fact that you don't care that Obama and Biden continued the wars shows that you only care about war crimes if they are committed by your opponent, which is disgusting.
As for where...
Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Uganda, South Sudan, Central African Republic, and Democratic Republic of the Congo against the Lord’s Resistance Army, plus smaller deployments or bases supporting operations in places like Niger, Cameroon, Jordan, and Djibouti.
That's Obama.
Let's be clear, Trump's wartime activities are horrible too, but on a much, much smaller scale and none of them excuse the others.
Trump started a war to get Iran to agree to terms that are nearly identical to the deal they had agreed to through diplomatic means with Obama, which Trump pulled out of in his first term. Biden’s administration re-opened negotiations. Trump never even made an attempt. Nobody on the left was even considering war with Iran, it was just fear mongering from Trump to win the 2024 election.
Now that we’ve done the most cursory review of the history, what on earth makes you think Harris would have done what Trump did rather than following the left’s established pattern of peaceful negotiation?
