    Just to elaborate, even Republicans are pissed about the Iraq War. They pretend it was all the Democrats fault for voting for it in Congress (which they did), or that the Tea Party sweapt away all the RINOs who were responsible (which it did not). In any case, it’s hard to find anyone in 2025 who still thinks Iraq 2003 was a good idea.

    Which is also kinda funny considering the outcome in Iraq has been objectively better than Afghanistan. You could argue that America ultimately accomplished its strategic goals in Iraq but not Afghanistan.
