I read this today on Facebook.


Louis C.K. explained the candidates and their qualifications with one simple analogy.
“It’s like if you were on a plane and you wanted to choose a pilot.” “You have one person, Hillary, who says, ‘Here’s my license. Here’s all the thousands of flights that I’ve flown. Here’s planes I’ve flown in really difficult situations. I’ve had some good flights and some bad flights, but I’ve been flying for a very long time, and I know exactly how this plane works.’”
And then Trump says, "‘I’m going to fly so well. You’re not going to believe how good I’m going to fly this plane, and by the way, Hillary never flew a plane in her life.’ ‘She did, and we have pictures.’ ‘No, she never did it.’”

Agreed. Cohen really should have gone back further in his argument on that.

You basically had 2 power vacuums in the region. Iraq and Syria. The former we broke when we invaded Iraq. The latter caused by Assad.

Obama decided to stop the bleed in Iraq and get us the hell out of there. The 3 factions despite what Bush thought will never get along, the Kurds, Sunnis and Shiites.

Biden was probably the only one intelligent enough to realize that we should have carved up Iraq into 3 zones. And that probably wouldn't have worked.

So we ended up with 2 unpoliced countries overrun by a bunch of thugs. (which is really what they are despite Trump's twitter rants) Not really any different than the gangs in this country.
