        Also, pretty sure a Navy guy died during the “invasion” via drowning after jumping out of a helicopter.

        Actually, *19* soldiers died in an invasion 95% of the US population doesn’t remember.

        Don't recall Grenada having Russian special forces embedded in it's army. Did it have an army? Plus why did Graham call our military asses?

        Why Is the reaction, "Venezuela is nothing like Grenada" and not "Grenada was the most unjustified war the US fought in the last half century, and yes, that includes Iraq."

        Lindsey Graham just gets crazier and crazier. Whatever Trump has seems to be contagious.
