” We are drifting. “
No. We are being ‘gently shoved’.
We need to elect a president who will not take guff from anyone.
Someone kills Americans and we kill them back times ten.
We need a president who isn’t afraid to actually nuke someone.
Reagan would have had enough sense not to invade Iraq in the first place. Any sub-level analyst could see this coming. Take away one of two natural enemies and ... kaboom.
Yep Reagan wouldn’t have invaded in the first place. But if he was given the situation, it wouldn’t be that we would read about ISIS atrocities and then 2 days later US action. We would read about US action to stop ISIS thugs inside Syria before they crossed the border or right at the border. Like we wake up and Grenada is free of communists before we even knew the communists were there.
Here is another distinction. I think Reagan would say “as I address you attacks are underway” The Hero of Benghazi says we WILL. He is in fact warning the terrorists.
Like he did in Lebanon?
