Trump On Bush Going Into Iraq: ‘They Lied’

“Obviously the war in Iraq was a big, fat mistake,” Trump said.

Donald Trump attacked the Bush family during the Republican presidential debate Saturday night, accusing the George W. Bush administration of lying to the public before going to war in Iraq.

“Obviously the war in Iraq was a big, fat mistake,” Trump said, launching into a fierce critique of rival Jeb Bush’s brother.

“George Bush made a mistake,” the billionaire continued. “Obviously we can make mistakes, but that one was a beauty.”

“We should have never been in Iraq,” Trump added. “They lied, they said there were weapons of mass destruction. There were none and they knew that there were none.”

Jeb Bush aggressively defended his brother.

“I’m sick and tired of Barack Obama blaming my brother for all the problems that he’s had and frankly I could care less about the insults Donald Trump gives against me,” the former Florida governor said.

One response to “Trump On Bush Going Into Iraq: ‘They Lied’”

  1. Shrub said that Gen. Colin Powell testified before the UN, stating that Saddam was stockpiling WMD’s in violation of UN sanctions, but the administration provided him with the info. [He also cited the Pier One store disclaimer of “If You Break It, You Own It”.] For years leading up to our invasion of Iraq, UN inspector Scott Ritter said there was no evidence of WMD’s based on his on-site inspections. You can find out what they did to him in order to silence his voice. Ambassador Susan Rice told the UN that an anti-islamic video caused the attack on our embassy in Benghazi on 9/11/12 based on [what the administration told her]. We now have a truer sense of what really happened.
    Hey Jeb, I don’t feel any safer today.
