Get away with anything and it's all his fault!? He had congressional approval to go to war. Makes no sense.
According to the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University, the United States has directly intervened militarily in at least 55 countries since 1950. This includes both overt and covert interventions, such as airstrikes, invasions, and coups. Most US citizens don't even know about many of these conflicts because the media doesn't publicize it. That, and despite being the richest nation on earth, most citizens are living paycheck to paycheck so they are just trying to get by.
This all started post WWII when the US came out on top of the rest of the world (because the greatest opposing economies were crushed through war) and decided to become world police to attempt to assert the first global dominance/rule. That's why the US has, by far, more military bases in foreign countries than any other country. To blame it on one person is absurd, especially when congress approved it, and it's been going on for far too long in US history. The whole thing is headed for disaster.
