Americans don’t like the USA taking these actions (well until the big fat orange blob actual does them, then his base instantaneously flips their opinion to being for it)
Yeah they do, they just claim afterwards that they didn't. One Day Everyone Will Have Been Against This.
I'm unsure on whether you'll receive a notification for this message, but if you have a lot of time to kill and enjoy podcasts you might wanna check out Blowback season 1 which deals with Iraq and explains the broader context. So many American liberals (and definitely the establishment) wanted to invade Iraq and they did, but since it's now considered to have been a bad thing so many liberals retroactively pretend they were always against it.
