[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP again.  Let me highlight that 2002 answer so it doesn't get lost:
[b]
Howard Stern: “Are you for invading Iraq?”

Donald Trump: “Yeah, I guess so."[/b] [/quote]

You are really pathetic if you have to dig into Howard Stern for serious political discussion. Debating Iraq war is a lost cause for Hillary, if all you got is a "I [b]guess[/b] so" on Howard Stern.

Joe Scarborough was a congressman and hosted a show for Politics. Donald Trump was on the record opposing the war with Joe on his show at a time when the war was still very popular.[/quote]

Why does it matter who they are if they asked the same exact question? Stern is one of the best interviewers in any business. Scarborough is a hack addicted to access journalism, and that's coming from someone who watches his show every day.[/quote]

It's not about Howard Stern the person but about the venue that Howard Stern produces. The stuff that Howard Stern puts out on his show, I don't know anyone can take it seriously other than just a crude form of entertainment. It's like finding clues on economy from the Jerry Springer show.

You can like or dislike Joe Scarborough the person, but his show was about discussing politics only. In 2003, Trump told Scarborough he was not for going into Iraq.[/quote]

In SEPTEMBER 2003. After the war started.[/quote]

Trump was a private citizen. He was not required to give a serious foreign policy opinion or even being asked the question. No one invited him to the Senate floor prior to the war to give a speech. Just because the earliest pubic record we can find was in September, it doesn't mean he was not against the war prior to that. It's such a red herring whether Donald opposed the war in 2003 or 2002. Trump was against the war early enough when the war was still popular.

Hillary on the other hand was the most hawkish senators at that time. She championed the war on the senate floor where it actually mattered. She continued her support long after the war started.

1.  Trump has been flirting with running for 20 years, which you seem to have forgotten.
2.  If he wants to claim he opposed the war he needs to show proof or just not make the claim. 
3.  It is too late for a leader to oppose a war after he sends in our troops. [/quote]
