What about all of Trumps claims? I mentioned 2, he hasn't followed through on. Does he operate at different standards than past presidents?
What the hell? Wasn't everyone complaining about "whataboutism" from Trump supporters? No, he doesn't operate on some different standard; even if he did Trump is a disaster by any standard in this and basically every other possible way, but it's not at all relevant to what I posted.

I see, he should not be allowed to say something and then realize it was a mistake, without following through on his original statement.
####ing hell, does everything you post have to be a straw man? No wonder this thread sucks.

Your apparent failure to understand how taking a public position on foreign policy intervention - warning a country against taking certain actions and then failing to live up to that warning - does damage to your country's credibility is baffling. That isn't even a controversial statement.
