Relevant to #GOPTownHall discussion: In 2002, Donald Trump said he supported invading Iraq https://t.co/0Oc5mL0uzX https://t.co/S3JFQODsK7

I made this statement on my blog recently and was rightfully checked on it, as there was no evidence Trump had said he was for invading Iraq, just that he was against it about 18 months after the fact.

Now, an audio interview from 2002 reveals that Trump was, if hesitantly, on the record as being for invading Iraq, making his statements about the invasion being a YUGE mistake he wouldn't have made, untrue.

Trump's already been asked about this, and his excuse is he was not a politician when he said it:
