“You don’t know what they know. Let things play out for a while before you pass judgement. There are more shoes to drop.”
McConnell will cave. Republicans will fold. They will never go the nuclear option ...
We’d rather nothing. We should stay out of third world wars.
We will have to wait a few weeks to see if there are any American losses.
>What is our Interest there?
Only that islam does not spread and use any means to shut the left down while working with decent people like the Russians and those that despise islam dogma and woman abusing.
I can see many ways to make this work as long as we keep the cold war relics and neocons out of the loop.
Gotta agree this seems very bad. Maybe they had hard intel but this might have been huge screw up.
Not to overstate and bloviate...
Well that’s not true.
The only thing Russia intercepted was the salt being passed at the dinner table.
Sad. His son-in-law did him in and dragged him into supporting the irrational vile obama agenda.....very sad.
Ha! You cannot tell me you are comparing 0’s fluid red line in the sand to Trump’s ginormous fist in the face response to a inhumane regime.
Please provide Trump with the obviously superior intel you seem to have.
Dude, it’s an airstrike, not a full on invasion. They’re hitting the airfield allegedly behind the gas strike, and they’re even saying they’re not targeting people.
Show of force.
Sleep on it and think about how chess is played. It ain’t checkers.
when did congress declare war ?
until congress declares war “We” are not at war
What astonishes me is the way some who only jumped on the Trump Train a few months ago,would probably jump ship. I guess we could wait until Syrian people are completely gassed and that would be ok with some. Trump understands the risks involved, but he sent a very powerful signal. If you cross “his red line”, you will feel the hurt. MAGA and Safe again.
Prince jared just wants another reason to wear his child size Kush flak jacket over a suit...this time in Syria
Learn some facts before posting. Right or wrong, we have thousands of our military personnel within range of Assad’s aircraft range. If Assad gets away with chemical nerve agents on civilians, it puts our military personnel in danger.
Trump speaking now
It feels like the USA is being beat at checkers with ISIS.
there’s a saying: “fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.” America tells the world “red line” and doesn’t act, once, the UN/Muslims see “perhaps they have lost their mojo” but they wait to see if its repeated. Second red line, we either gotta act, or we’re no longer the hope of the Earth, the city on the hill, the rape of evil.
F all of you trashing our president. This decision had to be tough. But using chem warfare on children must be answered and I mean with punishing force and brutality. And this is leadership.
Pray for this country and President Trump and for our soldiers.
Yep.... But one would hope for a good reason... Not some fake tragedy.
