Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

We don't care about which political side you're on but we do care about not having those sorts of comments here. If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.


This isn't a serious list, almost all of these are just political talking points with no substance. I will agree the withdrawal from Afghanistan was extremely poorly done. Yes, he was following the treaty trump had negotiated with the other side (was that neg. with terrorists?) but it was poorly done. A lot more soldiers died pointlessly in Iraq and no one saw it as a war crime on Bush2. The us had secret prisons. My country kidnapped people and tortured them in black prisons. That's a crime too. I'd like to prosecute that.

The justice dept raided trumps home because he

(1) had a long list of secret docs he wasn't supposed to keep (2) he was recorded on his own video call with his own lawyers where he talked about having them, that he shouldn't have them, and he knew they were still top secret because he specifically discussed that he hadn't changed their classification (3) asked him to give them back and he kind of gave a few back (4) asked him again for the things that were in the call and he didn't give them back.

Then he asked people working for him to lie about the whole affair. Some of them turned state's evidence.

Your points don't stand up to scrutiny. Among other things, ex-presidents are subject to the rule of law.
