The Unites States President, Mr. Donald Trump has tagged the escapades of one of his predecessors, George Bush as “the greatest mistake in American history” over his advents in Iraq.
Speaking during an interview with Hill TV, Trump said:
“The worst single mistake ever made in the history of our country: going into the Middle East, by President Bush.
“Obama may have gotten (U.S. soldiers) out wrong, but going in is, to me, the biggest single mistake made in the history of our country.
“So why was it so catastrophic?
“Because we spent $7 trillion in the Middle East. Now if you wanna fix a window some place they say, ‘oh gee, let’s not do it.’ Seven trillion, and millions of lives — you know, ‘cause I like to count both sides. Millions of lives,” the president explained.
“To me, it’s the worst single mistake made in the history of our country. Civil war you can understand. Civil war, civil war. That’s different. For us to have gone into the Middle East, and that was just, that was a bad day for this country, I will tell you.”
