Vance Reveals He Never Trusted Iraq War Intelligence After Serving There
Diary of a CEO
Vice President JD Vance: No One Saw This Coming, The Ceasefire Is Real!
"I remember feeling like, because even at that stage, this is probably 2003, 2002 maybe, I remember thinking to myself, this generation is dying away. I wanted to be a Marine because my older cousins were Marines. I signed on the dotted line. And I did that because I loved my country. But became a little jaded about our political leadership."
Vice President J.D. Vance described how George W. Bush exploited America's patriotic reservoir after 9/11 to launch the Iraq War, comparing Saddam Hussein to Hitler when he wasn't. Vance said he joined the Marines believing Iraq was his generation's World War II, but became jaded after realizing leaders weren't honest about the war's justification, which he believes has drained Americans' willingness to die for their country.
