    First that we know off.

    Although I oppose drone strikes and Obama was the king of them, this fella was in Yeman at the time which is a bit different than wigging off your citizens on home soil.

      Um… Obama isn’t the king of drone strikes, the Trump administration surpassed the total number Obama era drone strikes in under two years IIRC.

        Seems you’re correct. I stand corrected.

        Not that it matters but I am not American and have no dog in this race. I liked Obama and thought trump was… different.

      You might be thinking of how Obama was the “king of making them safer” because before him they just let it blow up Kids and crap willy-nilly, and he was tired of seeing that stuff so he made them create a less explosive more knife like drone for less casualties.
