Tonight the inevitable happened. After reports of possibly heinous war crimes being committed by the Syrian government, after weeks and weeks of hostile propaganda coming from the United States and a completely incompetent government in perpetual disarray, Donald Trump announced that the United States would be bombing Syria. Donald Trump’s opinions on foreign policy have not always been so … hawkish. Let’s take a look back:

Why is Senator John McCain in Syria visiting with the rebels- MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 27, 2013

Why oh why indeed?

Obama wants to unilaterally put a no-fly zone in Syria to protect Al Qaeda Islamists http://t.co/DCgP83Oxas Syria is NOT our problem.
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 29, 2013

We should stay the hell out of Syria, the "rebels" are just as bad as the current regime. WHAT WILL WE GET FOR OUR LIVES AND $ BILLIONS?ZERO
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 16, 2013

I get it, stay out.

Why would anyone think Obama would attack Syria the day of his speech in Washington. He doesn't want to detract from his press & glory.
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 29, 2013

Interesting.

Why do we keep broadcasting when we are going to attack Syria. Why can't we just be quiet and, if we attack at all, catch them by surprise?
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 29, 2013

Huh. You don’t say?

That said, the rich Arab countries should get involved with the Syrian mess, not us.We should start rebuilding our own country & military.
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 29, 2013

About your non-existent infrastructure project?

"@voicelikeariot_: @realDonaldTrump "@washingtonpost: Why Obama is giving up the element of surprise in Syria" Perhaps because he is stupid?
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 29, 2013

We know you are but what are we?

What will we get for bombing Syria besides more debt and a possible long term conflict? Obama needs Congressional approval.
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 29, 2013

You might want to ask that question again but this time do it while staring in a mirror.

If Obama attacks Syria and innocent civilians are hurt and killed, he and the U.S. will look very bad!
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 30, 2013

When he’s right, he’s right.

The President must get Congressional approval before attacking Syria-big mistake if he does not!
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 30, 2013

Hey man, you know what? I totally agree with you.

"@mguarino64: @realDonaldTrump " How would you treat the Syria situation if president ?" I'd let them all fight with each other-focus on US!
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 1, 2013

Clearly. There are about fifty more of those. So I will leave you with a few more.

AGAIN, TO OUR VERY FOOLISH LEADER, DO NOT ATTACK SYRIA - IF YOU DO MANY VERY BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN & FROM THAT FIGHT THE U.S. GETS NOTHING!
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 5, 2013

13 Syrian refugees were caught trying to get into the U.S. through the Southern Border. How many made it? WE NEED THE WALL!
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 22, 2015

"@TarukMatuk: @CNN @FoxNews @realDonaldTrump @RogerRice10 Refugees from Syria over 10k plus more coming. Lots young males, poorly vetted.
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 19, 2016

...We negotiated a ceasefire in parts of Syria which will save lives. Now it is time to move forward in working constructively with Russia!
Ã¢ÂÂ Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) July 9, 2017

Thank you to @foxandfriends for the great timeline on all of the failures the Obama Administration had against Russia, including Crimea, Syria and so much more. We are now starting to win again!

Donald Trump bombing anyone serves one purpose and one purpose only—himself.
