Warmongering? Huh...no new wars under republican leadership from the last admin, no proxy wars, the middle was at some semblance of peace with workable accords in place, and then what happens? Proxy war with russia, china acting up, and Israeli and Gaz are at each others throats.Or the Warmongering Recidivist Supply Side Voting Deficit Hawks who made it all happen by enabling the crashing of the US housing market.
