I agree with Pres. Obama on Afghanistan. We should have a speedy withdrawal. Why should we keep wasting our money -- rebuild the U.S.!

All good points. However, I recall something Pres Bush said. He said to Obama and others who were attacking him while trying to become the next president. He said the view looks different when you are sitting in the Oval Office. As much as we all like to score political points it is always best if they do what needs to be done rather than what scores them a few political points. Obama found that out and I guess Trump found out as well.

Bush's travel expense was greater than obama's and vacation days is not even in the same ball park. Same is happening when you compare obama and cheetos, cheetos is spending more on travel expenses and is taking more vacation time.

Did you even read Ohio's post or just see the name Bush and fire back?
 
Obama was against gay marriage before he was for it. Where are those posts condemning him for flip flopping?

I would argue that Trump campaigned on an entirely different political theme than Obama. While Obama wanted to end wars because peace is cool, Trump argued "fvck those motherfvckers", indeed fvck everyone but the USA. Isolationsim. A 180 on American foreign policy since the end of WWII. And was damn popular with his voters. This is a huge change in campaign rhetoric verses policy. I'm curious to see how his base responds. Probably well, because they may have cheered isolationsim, but they also love killing Muslims.

And now we know why Bannon was let go. This was the generals verses Bannon. Bannon lost.
 
You really want to talk about flip flops? We can certainly do that.
that is not my point. Everyone loves to see the other side flip flop. My point is I hope they do change their view if it effects national interests. Forget all the politics behind them.

You are correct on the theme he ran on. Maybe he got in the Oval Office and said, "crap" I was wrong, better listen to the Generals. IDK. On a personal level I would love to see us leave the place.

what in the world are you talking about? I didn't say anything about that subject. Talking about adding troops in Afghanistan.
 
My bad, I totally misunderstood what you were saying.

I'm sure he has listened to them. But it's important again for me to note the similarities in Trump's and Bernie's populism...getting out of Afghanistan, economic populism,and the combined votes they got....there's a SHITLOAD of voters that's still going to appeal to in 2020, because this stuff isn't going to happen under Trump, no matter how much he promised it.
