The Republican hero Saddam Hussein had his country preemptively invaded to get revenge for another Republican’s Daddy, he was killed for another country flying their planes into our buildings. Like Trump he was a leader of a revolution and organized a whole new party which espoused nationalism. He played a key role in the coup that brought his party to power. If we allow Trump to get into office, he can control the banks and the oil like Hussein did, then the Republicans will live in a Conservative paradise. There were various purges and genocides, and many of the people killed were Iraqis, but he had the right slogans, so the people were fine with it. Go ahead and vote Trump, he has all the right slogans too.
“He was a bad guy — really bad guy. But you know what? He did well? He killed terrorists. He did that so well. They didn’t read them the rights. They didn’t talk. They were terrorists. Over. Today, Iraq is Harvard for terrorism.” said Trump.
Bush lies people die.
What the American public did not know about Tenet’s and Powell’s crucial claim about Iraq training al-Qaeda associates on poison gases was that it didn’t show a nexus between bin Laden, Saddam and some of the world’s nastiest weapons. Instead, it was the tainted fruit of an “extraordinary rendition” in which militants were transported by American officials to countries that routinely used torture, where they would supposedly finally divulge whatever secrets they had been keeping from their American interrogators.In December 2001 Ibn al Shaykh al Libi, a Libyan militant who had run an al-Qaeda-affiliated training camp, was captured in Pakistan. Libi told his FBI interrogators that there were no ties between Saddam and al-Qaeda. Several days into his interrogation the CIA then rendered Libi to Egypt, where jailors were known for subjecting their prisoners to beatings, electric shocks and sexual assaults.To improve his chances of better treatment once in Egypt, Libi told his interrogators that bin Laden had sent two operatives to Iraq to learn about biological and chemical weapons.
Because Libi’s story encapsulated the key arguments for the Iraq war, his tale was picked up by President Bush in a keynote speech in Cincinnati on October 7, 2002 in which he laid out his rationale for the coming conflict with Iraq, saying, “We’ve learned that Iraq has trained al-Qaeda members in bomb-making and poisons and deadly gases.”But once he was back in American custody, on February 14, 2004, Libi recanted what he had falsely told his Egyptian interrogators. Libi told his U.S. interrogators that he had “fabricated” his tale of the Saddam-al-Qaeda-poison connection to the Egyptians following “physical abuse and threats of torture.”Two and a half years into the Iraq war, in October 2005, the CIA released a report that finally disposed of the myth that Saddam and the leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq, Zarqawi, had ever been in league, assessing that prior to the war, “the regime did not a have a relationship, harbor, or turn a blind eye towards Zarqawi.”
Trump is potentially FAR more dangerous to the US than Saddam, bin Laden, Assad, ISIL, Taliban, Al Qaeda, or Putin. How can ANYONE who listens to anything he says even remotely consider hiring him, to even collect their garbage?

The advantage of Palin is that she has already been vetted by the big-thinkers in the Republican party.
