Where did he do this?
He did an apology tour back in 2009... seemed noble but did no good.
But the people who actually know, the experts, intelligence agencies and generals say that's what you do. You make it clear it's not a war on their religion. You actually want to stop people who are vulnerable to extremist recruiting from joining them. You don't say fuck it and bomb them. That creates more tension, more propaganda. The shit weve already done but failed and ended up creating more terrorists. You see the innocent collateral damage and dead children, dead families from American bombs you leave an opening. This stems from Iraq, which destabilized the entire middle east, with a leader who carelessly used language like "crusades."
If you think by this point that you can bomb them out of existence or bomb your way out of a problem, then it makes sense that you fell for Trump's "Ending Terrorism For Dummies" bullshit.

That's about all you talk about. Claims of hatred, anger, greed. But mostly your own anger that the Clinton machine was destroyed and the Democratic Party Balkanized and at each other's throats. Suck it up buttercup, we got 4 years to go and no one wants to listen to you guys on the rag.
And he still lost the popular vote and had to have help from Russia, Assange, Wikileaks and Comey! He sure showed her!
But but but Russia!

Lol, Obama dropped more bombs from Drones than all other US presidents combined. A lot of innocent folks died from his drones. Oh, and we had more terrorist attacks in our country and Europe than during all of the Bush era.

The popular vote is a footnote and the rest are excuses. If the Democrats had a better nominee you probably wouldn't be complaining about Trump right now. Lesson learned.

Faldor, welcome to the party buddy! I didn't know you were in the same boat with Pollux, Flagg, and myself.
Kasich IMO was still the best candidate but I think Trump has a shot to be pretty decent.

I am still not wild about Sessions. I think Sessions is a big part of the protest as well. Had he gotten a more moderate for AG things maybe smoother. When I say moderate I don't mean weak or liberal. Sessions is more like a Ted Cruz in his beliefs. He is way right of Trump. Trump and Sessions may clash in the future.

They should've all gotten out and voted.
Considering she won the popular vote, I'm sure many of them did.
