The withdrawal of troops from Iraq were made under the Bush administration. Obama was simply carrying out the agreement Bush had with the Iraqi government. Yes they withdrew during Obama's administration,but it was done at the behest of Bush and his cronies. Not Obama.

The point is that Trump is losing touch with reality - even Republican reality - and you know that's gotta be really bad. Trump lost me from his very first speech about the border wall. Anyone who's crossed the US border with Mexico as many times as I have knows darn well that what they got down there is a pretty formidable barrier as it is. The Trump corporation wants to be in charge of building that border wall, so they can scam the taxpayer for it - and stiff subcontractors and declare bankruptcy in the process. One big thing that puts the Democrats head and shoulders above the Republicans in terms of political character and integrity is that they don't shamelessly politicize border security - they just quietly take care of problems as they arise at the border, and still keep us safe. Republicans are so terrified of immigrants and those seeking asylum on our southern border because they know that every one of them who becomes a citizen is going to wind up being a Democratic voter.

Piss on Haberman. Useless, soulless, pointless.
