    and then have 11 of the 12 listed examples being perpetrated by one group

    Why are you focusing on who was president?

    The claim was: American Imperialism enjoys bipartisan support

    Your counterpoint was: that cant be true because some of these examples were during republican POTUS.

    That doesn’t mean anything. American Imperialism can still enjoy bipartisan support, even if the president is a republican.

    Take the DR in 1965, for example. LBJ was president, but his call to war was answered emphatically by both Democrats AND Republicans in the name of anticommunism. Do you seriously think that the fact that LBJ was president disproves that this meddling enjoyed bipartisan support?
