Did he even say “thank you” to Europe for its support?
"The Iraq war"
Is like saying
"The world war"
Which one?
They mean the one where President Bush and his administration used propaganda to create support for an invasion that caused death, destruction and massive gains for the military industry.

In a perfect world, right after his comments there should have been a hail of gunfire putting him down. You know, just to prove that europeans aren't vassal states.
Was watching a clip from "the Crown" about how when Tony Blair was elected, people were contemplating getting rid of the monarchy due to how popular he was. Now a "Blairite" is a slur in British politics due to it's connotation with the Iraq war debacle. Second biggest modern mistake just behind allowing the Brexit poll and just ahead of the Lib Dems propping up the Tory government.
Based JD Vance blaming everything on Europe instead of Mexicans.
Maybe Trump should prosecute the war criminals responsible.
In the news: Trump prosecutes Bush
US Vice President JD Vance has called on European states to show greater independence, urging them not to be US "vassals." He also said EU governments could have done more to oppose Washington over the Iraq War.
fully agree, couldn't agree more. many died, for what?
He’s a huge piece of shit but he’s right
I LOLd for real
This has strong putana history vibes going.
And now that the US is pulling out of a proxy war, the EU is insisting it continue, consequences of nuclear war be damned.
I know Americans suck badly at Geography. But this war and Russia is bordering the European Union directly as opposed to Iraq. So it's a completely different thing
