IMHO, this is one of the worst things Trump has said

Donald Trump on ISIS: 'You have to take out their families'

It's horrible to condone murdering innocent civilians...

A statement that he later backed away from.

Meanwhile, the drone program that's championed by Obama and his ilk, has killed 90% innocent civilians in some cases. Even intentionally killing a 16-year-old American citizen by blowing up the entire restaurant he was in. Don't worry though, we also blow up our own hostages and those of our allies sometimes as well.

In case you're heart is bleeding for those poor souls whose lives were unduly cut short by having red-hot metal fragments inexplicably shred their organs and blast waves crush the skulls of their children before them, fret not, for chairman Sanders fully endorses and pledges to continue the program if elected.

A factually correct paraphrasing of Sanders' position would be, "I endorse and pledge to continue the willful killing of innocent civilians, in instances where we have reason to believe that someone who is not very nice might be in that general area".

Do you really want a petulant and ill-tempered 74-year-old Communist bum, who thinks it's okay to willfully murder civilians, and who supports the overthrow of a democratically-elected government in Syria -- to have any real power? Or is this simply more feigned outrage? Surely innocent people are just as dead when a "progressive" kills them, right? I mean, communism alone has lead to the death of nearly 100 million people in the last century...

1) You are completely wrong about Sanders... he actually said, "no more wars"... he does not advocate killing anyone

B) This isn't about Obama or drone strikes (which I also disapprove of)

iii) I don't care how many times Trump backs away from the stupid shit he says, he still said it... he still meant it... the fact that his advisors told him he needs to write an apology and take it back is meaningless... it's the thought that counts
