No, no he didn't. He has stopped zero wars. This is a childishly stupid lie his fat orange @$$ keeps repeating. Ukraine is still raging. Israel is still attacking Gaza. tRump has stopped zero wars, and he's starting one with Venezuela. He is a stupid, useless liar.

Given that Trump's most consistent MO is to accuse others of the wrongs he himself committed ("they tried to steal the election!" "they committed fraud on their loan documents!"), this is the ultimate tell.

I don't think it gets mentioned enough that Bovino is a member of the civil service. He is not a political appointee. Yet he still engages in constant open partisanship while in uniform and with a DHS flag behind him.
