I liked Jerry Ford. He did a Biden in Afghanistan and let Vietnam fall to North Vietnam.RedheadedStranger » 31 Aug 2023, 1:27 pm » wrote: ↑ Obammy targeted women and children with drone strikes, but water boarding was a bridge too far for you?
Nice
P.S.
Trump didn't start **** with anybody in his four years in office... quite to the contrary.
That was something that we haven't had a President accomplish since Gerald R Ford ( a Republican, like Trump) if I'm not mistaken.
But Ford had guts.

Trump also had courage.
Baghdad, IraqCNN — US President Donald Trump has said that he ordered a precision strike to “terminate” a top Iranian commander who was plotting “imminent and sinister attacks” on Americans, adding that the decisionwas one of deterrence rather than aggression.
“We took action last night to stop a war. We did not take action to start a war,” Trump said in a statement from his Mar-a-Lago resort on Friday, a day after a US drone strike on a Baghdad airport killed Qasem Soleimani.Later, while at a Miami church for an Evangelicals for Trump event, the President said: “He was planning a very major attack and we got him.”
Iran, in a letter to the United Nations, called the attack state terrorism and an unlawful criminal act.

President Donald Trump on Friday ordered the United States military — in conjunction with France and the United Kingdom — to launch strikes on Syria in retaliation for a suspected chemical weapons attack by the regime of President Bashar al-Assad on a Damascus suburb last week.
The president said the U.S. would aim to hit sites "associated with the chemical weapons capabilities" of Assad's regime.—-
Trump was a bit soft on real dictators
