Russia Just Invaded Ukraine

We're not directly involved in the war with Ukraine beyond providing economic and military aid, nice try though.

Which Trump also did as well.

Trump Orders Strikes on Syria Over Chemical Weapons

The Administration, however, did not present public evidence on the type of chemicals used or whether it involved the use of a powerful nerve gas

It remains unclear why the U.S. would unleash military strikes from the air and by sea if it did not have irrefutable proof that nerve agent was used. Assad has launched chlorine attacks against civilians dozens of times without U.S. reprisal, even though chemical weapons have been internationally banned after widespread use in World War I.

The operation marked the second time the U.S. struck Assad’s military. Trump ordered an attack last April against the Shayrat air base after a warplane at the base dropped bombs on another town allegedly containing the nerve agent sarin. U.S. warships launched 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at the base.

I’m not mistaken at all, Obama and Trump both did it.

Seven Days in January: How Trump Pushed U.S. and Iran to the Brink of War
The story of that week, and the secret planning in the months preceding it, ranks as the most perilous chapter so far in President Trump’s three years in office.

The use of chemical or nuclear weapons is often thrown around when a President desires public support for their military actions. It’s an easy Casus Belli. We can agree that George W Bush, Obama, and Trump all did this.

Add intelligence, communications, likely target selection, logistics, training, special forces and so on, all super classified so we can't know but it sure seems to be following the Vietnam model. Back then, Lady Bird Johnson was getting the kickbacks from Bell stock, now it's through Hunter's "art" etc. Something about Democrats yelling about the the military industrial complex out of one side of their mouth and taking bribed from the other.

Economic and military aid means we are certainly involved. Ask either Putin or Zelensky if we are involved in the Ukraine War. Hell we even have troops in Ukraine teaching them military tactics and how to operate the weapons & fighter jets we gave them. You can bet your ass there are special operations happening that we the public don’t know about.

Ukraine = Lend-Lease 2.0

The level of aid to Ukraine between Trump & Biden are incomparable.

You win again the award for the most retarded post the day.

SP said participate, which Trump did, which is why I brought it up.

If that is the metric you want to use...Trump joins Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, Gerald Ford, Richard Nixon, John F. Kennedy and Dwight D. Eisenhower in not having officially brought the United States into a new war since 1945.

If you want to include non-official wars as well, Clinton didn’t start any new wars, he just did a military strike, much like Trump did.

From your own link:

If we also consider other military interventions, Carter and Ford join Trump in not starting or escalating existing foreign conflicts with U.S. military involvement.

Even your link excluded Clinton.

LOL.

You don't even see the retardation in your own post...

Holy fuck.

A fact conveniently forgotten by the far right that is eager to paint Trump as some peace loving saint or martyr being prosecuted for being 'the best President in US history since Abraham Lincoln.'
