If it is well documented that Soleimani was responsible for historically killing Americans and was involved in the recent attack on the US embassy, then as far as I am concerned the question of whether it was proper to kill him has been answered. Is there some reason to believe he had just recently seen the light and was now for an end to violence?
As far as the specifics of what Trump said and did he stick to facts on the four embassy, I can’t blame Dems for trying to use that. Even if he lied, their lineup doesn’t really offer an alternative anyway.

The recent attack on our embassy begins with an “I”?
Nobody said he was forced. Le’ts have an honest discussion for a change shall we?
Solemani and is proxies ratcheted up attacks for a year culminating with the attack on the embassy. His timing, not ours.
Solemany left Iran for Iraq. His timing not ours.
Solemani chose to ride with his subordinate in a two vehicle convoy without civilians present. His choice not ours.
How many opportunities did we have to kill him following the embassy attack? His timing not ours.
Trump took the opportunity Solemani created.

Could have been military bases. Could have been a lot of other things too. Might have been my house!

Hm. So a target of opportunity in response to the embassy in Iraq getting stormed, nothing to do with any supposed planned and imminent attacks?

Bolton behind the effort to get more aggressive against Soleimani.
Why am I not surprised?

There is absolutely nothing I could say including graphs and charts that would lead to a productive conversation based on the obvious bias of your question.

It’s not bias to point out the fact that Trump lies incredibly frequently.
Why would you call that biased?

Your question is incredibly biased. Ergo, why would I engage.
You already have your mind made up. So, what is the point?

Trump lies a lot. True or false?
How is pointing that out biased?
Is there one example out there if Trump “getting something wrong” and then the imaginary lib media calling him a liar over it?
Donald Teump doesn’t lie like most politicians, that’s a doge and a cover story. He lies big and he lied small. He lies about things that are easily refuted, and he does it such a high frequency it’s proven to be impossible for the free market media to really know how to handle it. America has never had such a shameless lair as President before or any national figure really.

Is your question biased? I think it is.
What could possibly be the outcome of a conversation when your mind is already made up?
I’ll even go one better than that where he isn’t even wrong.
Every time he or the administration puts out a statement about how much new wall has been built it’s billed as a lie on the premise that the majority of the construction has been in replacing old, dilapidated and/or completely unsuitable barriers that are not at all or never were effective it’s billed as lie in the press.
