The Jebster has gone full GOPe.
Via DC Whispers:
It is not a subject new to Mr. Trump. He has long spoken about it, written about it, and now as a presidential campaign, has worked to push it to the forefront of American voters’ attention.
The show of emotion came after Jeb Bush rambled on about how we must “lead in Syria” apparently with the use of yet more American soldiers in that region and presumably fighting alongside Syrian “rebels” who in fact it has been proven, despise America as much as they despise the Assad regime. Obama has already spent a half billion “training” said rebels, only to have Congressional testimony reveal that training amounted to five rebel fighters.
Five.
That isn’t what fired up Donald Trump’s outrage last night, though. After he stood by and listened to Jeb Bush’s pontifications on Syria, Putin, Assad, etc., Trump first (and correctly) pointed out we have no idea who these Syrian “rebels” actually are or what their true motivations which most likely do not involve supporting the United States. Then Mr. Trump’s eyes begin to flare as his indignation grows. Since 2002 he warned of the dire consequences of going into Iraq, warned of the implications for further chaos once U.S. forces leave, and cannot understand how it is America spent trillions of dollars and thousands of lives in those most recent Middle East conflicts, and now has so little to show for it.[…]
And then Donald Trump’s voice rose even further and for the first time in any of the four GOP debates so far, he appeared on the verge of losing his temper when discussing the ongoing treatment of the American war veteran and how those oil profits instead being directed to Iran and ISIS, a nation and a radical Islamic group that is devoted to the killing of yet more of our soldiers and the destruction of the United States.
American soldiers sacrificed life and limb and it is ISIS and Iran who now grow rich off of that sacrifice.
