The blame shuffle

For starters, Empty Helmet didn't end shit. That was already a done deal before they installed him.
All he did was listen to his handlers to pick a date that would create the "Greatest Photo op in History"
Tying it to the 911 anniversary and then totally bungling it at the cost of 13 soldiers lives.
Greatest Surrender in US history.

That's Carter's war. Trump wasn't president 47 years ago when it started.

I don't remember a war a few months ago. If you mean tension, that's another topic. But this war is 100% on Trump for pulling the trigger.
