(575 posts)Trump lives and breaths his resentment of Obama because Obama is everything he wants to be and isn't.
Smart, admired, classy, witty, talented, ect.

(297,304 posts)what a whiner they are.. never taking responsibility for anything. Always Whining about somebody else.
Hiding that they were responsible for Todd Brassner's death because he's too cheap to put in a sprinkler system.. no matter what the law was then.
A smart person would have done that.. and now he's hiding it.

(135,844 posts)The correct response to this situation is to despair at the fact that the US and UK governments created such a horrific human tragedy for no good reason at all. However, partisan grudgefests run deep, and some on the right have argued that the UKs Chilcot report proves the real dastardly actors are liberals who accused Bush and Blair not just of relying on faulty intelligence suggesting Iraq had WMDs but of lying about the intelligence they did have.
To some extent, this is beside the point; even if they had been totally cautious and careful in characterizing the intelligence, the war still wouldve been a catastrophic mistake that took an immense human toll. But the truth also matters, and the truth is that there were numerous occasions when Bush and his advisers made statements that intelligence agencies knew to be false, both about WMDs and about Saddam Husseins nonexistent links to al-Qaeda. The term commonly used for making statements that one knows to be false is "lying."
