as tweeted by Amanda Terkel, per pool report

full quote, courtesy of Reuters' Sam Youngman:
"We have wars; we get nothing from them. We have wars. You know in the old days, you won a war to the victor belong the spoils. With us, we win a war, what do we do? We leave Iraq, what did we get out of it? They're having a field day with the second largest oil reserves in the world; we get nothing."

In other words, Mitt and Donald's message is "More blood for oil!"


Yeah, that will make the rest of the world feel at ease over a Willard presidency.
