No, he lied then (most likely because of his tendency to stretch the truth to make a point and tell a story) and he lies now, (as you have repeatedly accused, right?). You have to look at actions to determine truth. Did TRUMP! get us into any new shooting wars? That's a good thing. He was certainly more of a peace president than his predecessor, who made a laugh track out of the Nobel Peace Prize. Now, ask yourself this, did TRUMP! in 2008 have access to classified information on which he could make an informed decision about the Iraq war? If not, then he was just a citizen like anyone else basing his opinion on stuff he heard, unlike Hillary who had access to classified info and decided to support the war. IOW, his opinion from then is no more substantive than any of ours was at the time. So, appeal to authority much?So trump was a lying democrat in the 2000s but a trusted patriot now?We are all aware that TRUMP! was a democrat in the early 2000's. We are also aware that politicians (as TRUMP! has learned to be) change what they say from year to year, even day to day. Do you not remember that Obama opposed gay marriage (and you voted for him) until it became politically convenient to support it (and you voted for him again)? Do you not remember Quid Pro's racist comments that you are now sweeping under the rug? As for Hillary, she had a lot more access to a lot more classified info than I ever have, so if she decided to vote for the war, who am I to second guess her? You do realize, don't you, that you very conveniently, and partisanly, excused her for doing the same thing W did, which was start the war? Interesting thing. You manage to always find excuses for your dear leaders but never for anyone you oppose, even when they do the same thing.Bit of a difference here. In the case of the Dixie Chicks, it was the FANS that decided they no longer wanted to spend money on merchandise, concerts, CD's or downloads. Now we're talking about the INDUSTRY trying to silence artists because of their political views. IOW, a boycott. No one owes the DC an apology. Let's put it this way. Suppose a radio talk show host started espousing the idea that gay marriage is a good thing and that everyone should be forced to attend a gay marriage, and the listeners turned it off. That's one. Now take it a step further and suppose that the owner of hundreds of radio stations doesn't like gay marriage and not only fires the talk show host but sends out word that anyone promoting it will be summarily fired and have their careers ruined. Do you see the difference? One is the fans deciding they don't want to listen, the other is the industry deciding they don't want the fans to hear something. Both are legal, BTW, so that's not even an argument.Just remember back during the Bush days Republicans defended Bush just as much as they defended Trump. And anyone who spoke up got thrown under the bus. The Dixie chicks must have forgot who their country music base was. White Conservative Republicans In Red States. So it took balls to call Bush out for lying us into Iraq.According to the write up, the winner will be declared on the day after tomorrow and not only that, the money is to be donated to the Folds Of Honor organization if he loses and if he wins, the money is to be donated to the organization of the loser's choice.He is just pissed he lost his bet.
Country singer John Rich bets journalist $10G Supreme Court will overturn election
At the end of the day, how much of what did or didn't happen with them is anyone's fault really when we had the freedom then to like or dislike whoever it is that we do or don't decide to take any interest in?Remember what you republicans did to the Dixie chicks? Yet years later you elected a guy who said bush lied us into Iraq. You ruined their careers for speaking out against bush but elected trump who basically agrees with them. Did you guys ever apologize to the chicks for what you did to them?Hollywood is at liberals' feet...music industry domination is their next thing
John Rich says country stars tell him conservatives being 'muzzled' by industry

God bless you two and John Rich always!!!

P.S. For the record, my dislike towards them took place before they had anything to complain about politically. 9-11 had not even happened yet.
Think about it. In the 2000's you republicans ended the Dixie Chicks career because they said Bush lied us into Iraq but then Trump said the exact same thing in 2008 and 8 years later you elected him to be your president
In the Feb. 13 debate in South Carolina, debate moderator John Dickerson asked Trump about an October 2008 interview in which Trump said it would have been a “wonderful thing” if Democratic Rep. Nancy Pelosi tried to impeach Bush because he lied about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction. Asked if he still believes that Bush should have been impeached, Trump called the Iraq war a “big fat mistake.” Pressed again for an answer, Trump went on to say, “They lied.”
Trump, Feb. 13: You call it whatever you want. I want to tell you. They lied. They said there were weapons of mass destruction; there were none. And they knew there were none. There were no weapons of mass destruction.
But for some reason you guys still can't admit you were wr wro wrooo wrooon wwwwrrrooonng. WRONG!
So why did you treat Trump so differently after he said Bush lied us into Iraq?
Don't you owe the Dixie Chicks an apology?
Fair enough. The thing I'm most interested in is how in early 2000's you guys threw the Dixie Chicks under the bus for the same thing Trump said in 2008, then you went and voted for Trump. Isn't that interesting? What does that tell you? It tells me you were wrong to defend Bush back then. And you still won't admit it. You'll side step the issue.
And if that's true, what makes you think you are right now defending Trump? Maybe you are a wrong today just like you were back then but you will never admit it until it's too late. Like it was way too late to wait for 2008 to admit that yes, Bush most certainly lied us into Iraq. Something the USA wants to sweep under the rug and not admit. They'll stick with the lie, "he was given bad information" but even Trump admitted that's bullshit. They knew they lied us into Iraq.
And back then you were a good nazi. You went along with the plot. Shit you even suckered people like Hillary to vote for invasion but remember, you lied to her/us. Don't believe me? Ask Trump. Don't believe him?
