When we don’t get a repeat of President Obama’s mistakes.

Thanks to President Obama, we already know what happens when America rushes for the exits before finishing off its enemies. When Obama pulled the last U.S. troops out of Iraq in 2011 he insisted that the country had become stable and self-sufficient and that the Iraqi military no longer needed support from U.S. troops in the country.

Obama ignored numerous warnings from American generals and diplomats that the Islamic extremists would return if we left too soon – and Obama turned out to be wrong.

Now, I agree with a lot of President Trump’s foreign policy, especially his harsh treatment of the Iranian and North Korean regimes, and I think he should keep that up - especially when it comes to the jihadists who have sworn to destroy our western values.
