Bombing Syria was a brilliant move.

1) Trump is not Putin’s bitch.

2) Putin is de-fanged.

3) Norks are on notice.

4) China is helping.

5) Iran is sh*tting their robes.

6) Strategic downside risk is limited.

7) Political bump in U.S.

I don’t like the fact that it temporarily puts us on the side of the Sunni Axis. But next, Trump can bomb some more Sunni idiots who need it, and that takes care of that issue.

So what’s the downside again?

Whether or not the sarin existed or whose it was remains a mystery to me. But the bombing as a Trumpian Statement is a winner most any way I can look at it.

At worst, your dead on target. That is the worst case scenario too. I’m not convinced it’s the real scenario, but you’ve laid it out there clear as can be.

Not sure why folks can’t grasp that.

Uncle Miltie: it temporarily puts us on the side of the Sunni Axis.

We're also on the same side as ISIS. A Trump-ISIS coalition to take out Assad?

The fact that Trump loses all credibility if it turns out not to have been Assad like possibly the 2013 event?

This helps isis/a queda.

He kinda campaigned on staying out of the Syrian war.
