I get it. Math is hard, and cares nothing for desires, hopes and prophecies.

Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont wants U.S. troops home from Iraq. But in a clear jab at President Donald Trump’s foreign policy approach, he said he wouldn’t do it with a tweet.

Sanders’ appearance at a press conference Thursday to push legislation blocking war with Iran is the latest indicator that the impeachment trial isn’t the only thing that can lure Democratic presidential hopefuls off the campaign trail and back to the Senate.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“I will do my best as president to bring our troops home as soon as possible, but I will not do it through a tweet,” Sanders said. “I will not do it by creating a situation where we get kicked out of the country, but what we need to do is work with the government of Iraq, work with other allies in the region.”
