Interesting question because after bashing Afghanistan and Iraq Wars, Obama continues many of Bush’s foreign policies, and also gets involved in Libya and Syria. Hillary Clinton has consistently been much more hawkish than Trump, and that continues to be the case.

But the two parties have flopped on foreign policy. I know Trump is dealing with GOP backlash right now about Syria, but he’s always campaigned on America first, and ending our meddling in the Middle East — exactly what the 2006 Democrat Congress campaigned on. Funny how that turned out....

Trump’s totally getting us out of the Middle East!



So "screw the Kurds!" but also "we need to go defend Saudi Arabia"? What the hell, nobody should be okay with this, whether they are a neocon or an isolationist or anywhere in between.
