Trump saw the Iraqi Prime Minister in the White House.

This is what he told him.


“Certainly we shouldn’t have left. We should never ever have left,” Trump told Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi 

In 2003, Trump cheered on the illegal invasion of Iraq.

In 2004 he flip flopped and said "Look at the war in Iraq and the mess that we're in. I would never have handled it that way.”

In 2007, he said the United States should simply “get out.”

“Declare victory and leave,” he told CNN.

In 2008, he said: “I’d get out of Iraq right now.”

In 2011, he told CNN’s Piers Morgan that he would get U.S. troops in Iraq “out real fast.”

Trump was advocating for withdrawal as late as 2014.

Today?  We should never have left.

Trump quote:

“I will be so good at the military your head will spin.”
