If Trump is opposed to Iran getting nukes, why is cool with Saddam getting nukes?

We should not have done so and impressed upon them that doing so would mean we have no faith in their governments survival and will use scorched earth tactics to prevent the resources falling into the hands of a group of totalitarians that would be the inevitable result.
We needed to occupy them for a decade or so to stabilize the area.


Because that'd have gone so very well with showing our good-faith in state building.

It didn't work with Al-Qaeda, it just creates splintering. Instead of a $500,000 bomb being dropped, it'd be better to build $500,000 worth of schools and housing.

Al-Qaeda didn't claim to be a caliphate if ISIS's leader died it could make people think of them as illegitimate

You'd better believe I'm a bitter Bernie Sanders supporter. The Dems fucked up and fucked up hard. Hopefully they'll learn that neoliberalism and maintaining the status quo isn't the way to win this election or any other one. I doubt they will, though.

Arguably true. She's just better at hiding it. If the claims about her violence and ranting at staff out of view of cameras are based in reality.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

If she has the ability to hide it in public, she's already better temperament than Donald.

EDIT: Maybe not the BEST temperament, but better than Donald.

Did the audience just laugh at Trump's comment that he has a better temperament?

Also, this may be the first time that I've seen Hillary Clinton look like she's truly enjoying herself.
