There is one more layer - America voted for this.
In fact, it didn’t. Trump continued to make “no new wars” a plank of his platform.
Some of his base will follow wherever he goes, but he would not have been elected without those who supported him on the basis of this (broken) promise.
Trump said this wasn’t a war.
Americans voted for this confrontational, disrespectful, and chaotic way of governing.
