They're not speaking out of concern for the country and global security. They're protecting the military industrial complex, crony capitalists and oligarchs that are control the west. The most dangerous part in supporting everyone that comes out against Trump is how the left is now supporting the neo cons.
They're the ones who lied to the American public about the threat Saddam Hussein posed in the lead up to the Iraq war. They lied about torture. Many of them got us to overthrow Gaddafi, and supporting Islamists across the region. They destroyed countries causing people to migrate to Europe and increasing the threat of terror globally.
To list some of the names, and I'm sure there's other with dubious histories, CIA and NSA Director Michael Hayden; Robert Zoellick, former deputy secretary of State and president of the World Bank; James Jeffrey, former deputy national security adviser to the White House; and former secretaries of Homeland Security Tom Ridge and Michael Chertoff... just look up who these people are. They don't give two fucks about the American public.
Does anyone remember the Bush presidency anymore? Because the Dems are now on the same side, and looking at their collusion during this election probably always on the same side as many of these criminals.
- It is so brutal that the Obama/Clinton administration is not that far off from the Bushes with regards to foreign policy.********
- It's unfortunate that the Republicans couldn't get a sane candidate nominated, to have a real debate about foreign policy.********
- However, Trump repeatedly blames the Iraq war and ISIS on "Bill Clinton, Obama, and Hillary" and always leaves out both Bushes.********
- And if you think America started being a "war country" with Bush I, you just haven't read back far enough. It's been a war country for a very long time.********
- nb is right, we need to stick to bush's policies with hills. corruption is prosperity, just look how wealthy its made hills. proof.yurimon
- nb - I agree, they will lose all their power if Trump becomes president and yes as if they care about the public - who does these days, do you think Trump does?fadein11

- We clearly won't agree on this but Trumps character has been assassinated by these groups. He's a threat to them, not us.IRNlun6
- You're conveniently ignoring the fact that just as many "neocons" are supporting Trump. Such as Dick Cheney, Sheldon Adelson, Rudy Giuliani...yuekit
- not a threat to us? wow - I think you may have to eat your words if the worst happens.fadein11
- Trump does go against the U.S. consensus on a few issues such as Russia, but he isn't really a peace candidate. He was in favor of the same Libyan interventionyuekit
- you mentioned, originally in favor of Iraq War, and wants to rip up the peace deal with Iran. Also supports torture, indefinite detention and other policiesyuekit
- Bush put into place.yuekit
- as NB said - the US has been at war pretty much continuously post WWII. It didn't start with Bush.fadein11
- ^ Yeah I agree, I mean the U.S. was invading the Philippines over 100 years before Iraq.yuekit
- U.S. imperialism is nothing new. But in recent history, Bush represented especially extreme version, and it's interesting that Trump agrees on many policies.yuekit
