For 7.9 years of his administration...defense of Poland or the east European states...was a ‘no-go’. One can only be amused by this 30-day gimmick that is unfolding. Go back to the week prior to the November election...any announcement of a troop deployment? See any discussion or plans laid out?

The plan to send troops into Poland has been going on for quite some time. We’ve known about it for roughly 6 months or more. I have two who were originally scheduled to go, but one was retained for medical reasons. I’ll be keeping that one in prayer. That one is expected to be there for roughly 9 months.

He’s looking for any reason to void the election and stay in office.

He is Beelzebama, son of Perdition. Starting WW3 would be his legacy if he gets away with it..

For all those hyperventilating over this deployment, wringing their hands over the fact that this is the biggest deployment to Europe "since the Cold War", here's a little perspective:

The stupid-a** Obammunist, in an effort to butch up and pretend like he's a real CinC, sent a brigade, roughly 3,500 troops and 80-some tanks to Poland. According to the DoD, at any given time during the 80s, there were 300K+ USAEUR and USAFE troops in Germany alone. This so-called "deterrent force" is about 1/90th to 1/100th the size of the force that was in place during the Cold War. The force is so puny that if the Russians did start feeling froggy and decided to jump, they'd be little more than speed bumps, or human shields at best.

No, the Obammunist isn't trying to start WW3 in Europe, but he has stupidly put 3,500 soldiers into one helluva precarious position.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

And then leaving town “to an undisclosed destination.”

You have the numbers so lets look at this logically.

Obama will put the military there and hate Trump and Putin.

Trump loves Putin according to our press.

Obama + Trump + Putin = ???????

FAC = America

Well, they’re NATO troops and Poland is a party to NATO.

How Obama allowed this to happen is beyond me.

He’s doing everything he can to create problems for Trump. Problem is, guys like Trump deal with and solve problems, they don’t just talk about them and pass the buck.

It’s like these ridiculous confirmation hearings. Trump has picked, for the most part, men and women of action. Meaning, they don’t have time for the bullshit. They get asked a question, they answer it. That’s one of the things I don’t like about Pompeo. He got up there, did a decent job, but reverted back to the “politician” when he should have told Kamala Harris, etc, that....

His job as CIA director was to bring back the spirit of Will Bill Donovan, get rid of the Leftists and Progresive hippies in the CIA, make sure everyone who worked there was the brethren of Jack Bauer and Jason Bourne, with the sole purpose of crushing Islam and America’s enemies.

The Poles are very happy about it.

They were allies of England and France, but while they did go to war with Germany over Poland, they, along with the US, let Poland itself twist in the wind as Poland was crushed. I’d be impressed by the courageous stand, if Obama had done it a year ago, not right before he packs his bags and sticks it to his successor to deal with the fallout.

I agree with this move.

As do neocons and the globalist cabal and their useful idiots. Quite sizable.

Thanks for explaining by comparison. I didn’t realize just how small this current deployment is, when matched against
other eras. More kabuki dancing and playing of checkers.
I’m sure Obama was disappointed when Putin took the adult view and refused to be easily provoked by a Lame Duck.
