Trump Stacks His Wars' Death Tolls Against Vietnam And Korea
His Truth Social post sets Iran's 18 dead in four months against Vietnam's 58,220 dead over nearly 20 years.
- Afghanistan: 20 years, 2,000 dead. Iraq: 9 years, 4,600 dead, Trump's own count.
- Korea: 3 years, 1 month, 36,574 dead. Vietnam: 19 years, 5 months, 58,220 dead.
- Venezuela: 1 day, 0 dead. Iran conflict: 4 months, 18 dead, per Trump's tally.
Why it matters: A count kept by the man who started the wars is not an audit, it is a defense.
