        can someone explain to me in one sentence why US feels compelled to meddle in other countries' business and get involved in wars that are not to defend US itself?

        So, after 18 months in office, it would appear rump has no better idea of what to do in & with Afghanistan, as his two predecessors! War is never easy, never just a matter of will, determination or how #smart the #POTUS is. Trump promised things he should nave KNOWN would fail!
