[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 1 point 5 months ago (1 child) Just to clarify, you're asking if Trump wants to stop the wars but Congress is keeping them going? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DaMummy@hilariouschaos.com 1 point 5 months ago (1 child) No, I'm saying the same way Obama said he'd stop wars, then congress(and whatever else, Pantagon, CIA, Israel, etc) stopped him from doing so, Trump the same way ran on stopping wars, and then congress(again, whatever else) changed his mind.

Obama only had his banker chosen administration. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 1 point 5 months ago (1 child) I find it more likely Trump lied in the first place about stopping wars, rather than other people egging him on permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] DaMummy@hilariouschaos.com 1 point 5 months ago So does that mean Obama was controlled by my list of "whatever else" and started all those wars against his own volition, instead of being a representative of the American people?
