In case you thought Donald Trump made a huge mistake in attacking George W. Bush, it turns out to be even worse than you thought. BuzzFeed did a little research to see if Donald Trump really was opposed to the Iraq war:
Here is what Donald Trump wrote in his book, The America We Deserve in 2000:
“Consider Iraq. After each pounding from U.S. warplanes, Iraq has dusted itself off and gone right back to work developing a nuclear arsenal. Six years of tough talk and U.S. fireworks in Baghdad have done little to slow Iraq’s crash program to become a nuclear power. They’ve got missiles capable of flying nine hundred kilometers – more than enough to reach Tel Aviv. They’ve got enriched uranium. All they need is the material for nuclear fission to complete the job, and according to the Rumsfeld report, we don’t even know for sure if they’ve laid their hands on that. That’s what our last aerial assault on Iraq in 1999 was about. Saddam Husein wouldn’t let UN weapons inspectors examine certain sites where the material might be stored. The result when our bombing was over? We still don’t know what Iraq is up to and whether it has the material to build nuclear weapons. I’m no warmonger. But the fact is, if we decide a strike against Iaq is necessary, it is madness not to carry the mission to its conclusion. When we don’t, we have the worst of all worlds. Iraq remains a threat, and now has more incentive than ever to attack us.”
Seriously? He wrote this in his book, in 2000, before Bush became President! This is as bad as it gets. There are a lot of words to describe this including liar, hypocrite, jerk.and many more. The list goes on, but right at the top should be: “STUPID.”
