Killing their top military commander and hurting them economically probably inspired them
"Former President Donald Trump downplayed the injuries of troops who suffered traumatic brain injuries following missile strikes against a U.S. base at the end of his time in office, referring to them as “headaches” at a campaign event in Wisconsin on Tuesday.
Pentagon officials have said more than 100 U.S. troops were diagnosed with brain injuries following a missile attack at the Ain al-Asad base in Iraq in January 2020. The assault came in response to the American killing of Iranian Revolutionary Guard General Qassem Soleimani in Iraq a few days earlier."
On Tuesday, when asked by a reporter if he wished he had been tougher on Iran, given the severity of the injuries incurred in that attack, Trump downplayed the result.
“What does ‘injured’ mean?” he said. “You mean because they had a headache? Because the bombs never hit the fort…”
I prefer a Commander-n-Chief who doesn't downplay the injuries suffered by our military or consider them suckers or losers for serving.
