Just unreal. What can anyone say at this point?

And this is the same guy who constantly asserts that the US should have taken Iraq’s oil.

This isn’t the first time Trump has accused US soldiers of stealing the money intended for Iraqi reconstruction.

He also suggested that some American soldiers charged with distributing money to fund the Afghan and Iraqi government embezzled it instead. “I want to know who are the soldiers carrying suitcases with $50m?” asked Trump. “How stupid are we? I wouldn’t be surprised if those soldiers, if the cash didn’t get there.”

As expected, the Trump campaign is now trying to claim he was referring to Iraqi soldiers, not US soldiers. Which might work if he hadn’t accused US soldiers of looting before (see above).
