So much for getting out of endless wars! President Trump has announced that he is sending 14,000 more US troops to the Middle East and may even send more. The reason is the manufactured “Iran threat” that Trump continues to delude himself over. Neocons are thrilled. So are Saudi Arabia and Israel, who would love nothing more than to have the US fight and die in their wars. But what about America first? Watch today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report:

There is no coherent policy. It’s all a mishmash of whatever side of the bed Trump wakes up on that morning, coupled with Trump’s need make it seem like he’s turning a profit. He probably still thinks he can steal all the oil as easily as Cheney said we’d conquer and win over Iraq.
I don’t think we’ve had a president in my adult lifetime with any kind of coherent foreign policy principles. Trump is no different, with the exception that he seems to be able to bamboozle his followers into believing he’s some kind of mighty, decisive, principled leader.
And he’ll be sending each with their own MAGA body bag (made in China.)

58,000 dead in Vietnam in that last stand for freedom against the scourge of communism. After centuries Vietnam finally kicked out all the foreign invaders and nothing happened. It was all for corporate plunder and the Cocaine Import Agency -mafia drug sources.
