    He also helped invade Iraq, and Trump was too much of a coward to actually do anything Bolton wanted to

      Trump was too much of a coward to actually do anything Bolton wanted to

      He assassinated a top Iranian general while the guy was on a diplomatic mission to Iraq

          So we're giving credit to Trump for committing war crimes but -- at the last possible minute -- not starting a war that would make Iraq look like a backyard wrestling match.

          But Biden would totally be worse because checks notes he wants to rejoin Obama's U.S.-Iran deal? Quit while you're miles behind here.

            And "Push back against Iranian influence in the region." I know the stereotype about libs not reading, but damn. I sent you his proposal a few comments ago

              You sent me an article stating that Biden wants to rejoin the U.S.-Iran deal. Thats a hell of a lot more material than vague "push back on their influence" rhetoric, especially when the comparison point is a guy who's already committed an act of war against Iran.

              But I see we've shut our brains off and concluded that Biden bad = Biden is worse than Trump on all dimensions, ackshually.

            So we’re giving credit to Trump for committing war crimes but – at the last possible minute – not starting a war that would make Iraq look like a backyard wrestling match.

            You're framing it as "credit" again, which makes no sense. People here aren't patting Trump on the back. They're arguing why he's less apocalyptically awful than Biden by a small degree.

            You know this, and you keep trying to frame it as people like Trump, which is from the Lib 101 playbook ("oh you aren't all-in on Ridin' with Biden, huh? What time is it in Moscow, Boris")
