Maybe having served in Iraq, he should have learned how a mistake is sometimes just a mistake and to know how to change your course of action once it turns out to be a mistake.
Or maybe he just learned how to live in denial, and put a positive spin on a nightmarish clusterfuck. Mission Accomplished!
Pretty much most Rs today.
"mistake"
Oops, we just killed a million Iraqis. Silly empire
Maybe he has an ideological reason and considers such events less important than that.
Say, he's a supporter of right-wing populist state capitalism. Satan knows why, Satan knows how, but he is.
Is there an alternative political affiliation for him, so that he wouldn't be a Trump supporter?
Why does he feel that it's relevant here? I don't really follow that part.
BCOS the military and its vets are the R's version of 'think of the babies', right until the point they ask for bothersome thugs like rights and support.
