I'm in favor of the next Dem president - asking no questions and start bombing El Salvador

for aiding the kidnapping of US persons.

I wonder if this zukerberg wannabe UFC dictator homeboy is keeping that in mind.

going to be an interesting primary between those who choose to fight, or be more like themz.

The last election was very questionable. It looks like Trump didn’t win but managed to get in.

picking ridiculous and deadly fights for no reason.

We hired them to do this. We can un-hire them. Mump could get Garcia home tomorrow if he chose. There's no need whatsoever for bombs, and you're talking about one creep of a president and a lot of innocent Salvadoreans.

But I'm not in favor of any dem taking that off the table. Andrew Tate II can choose the right path or pay the price.

The world is already on the verge of World War III. We need sanity and reason, not more American Cowboy diplomacy. We've already had enough of that kind of crap with both Bush and Trump.

I see conflict all over the world with the possibility of far more to come. It reminds of the world prior to World War II.

HELL NO!

If your neighbor’s husband is a tyrant, will you bomb his house and kill his family?

I have friends in ES, good and kind people who suffer enough without our hatred adding to it.

the prisoner back.

The reason we aren't getting him back is Trump doesn't want him back and making no attempts to do it.

20. Bomb El Salvador because their dictator is doing the bidding of America's dictator?
Mon Apr 14, 2025, 07:03 PM

Why not just have some third country not involved with the actions of either dictator bomb America?

I mean, Bukele didn't grab up the men and fly them off to El Salvador, did he?

Bukele isn't the one bringing harm to the people of America with his actions, is he?

Sure, he is no better than Trump but why not focus on America's little tyrant?

Had Trump said Kilmar Abrego Garcia must be brought back, Bukele wouldn't stand in the way of America flying in and picking him up to return to America.

Bukele took his cues from what Trump wanted.

Why bomb another country for the actions of the American government?

Why place all the blame on El Salvador?

Why jump to bombing a country at all?

What if another country felt the exact same way about America over the treatment of their citizens that have traveled to America?
