Just because he slipped up a d embarrassed USA doesn’t mean he’s got any intention of making nice- nice. He still wants to overthrow the Syrian government and turn that nation over to his terrorist friends. Just like he’s done to several other countries already. We need to get over the “Incompetence discussions” He is not that at all.
