This isn’t question with question time. As much as I have disagreement with Trump in this isn’t one of them. As I stated in previous threads you either trust Trump based on the intel he received he did what was in the US interests or you don’t. And if you don’t trust him based on that then you just simply don’t trust him period.

OR
if this was Kabuki theatre then I’m good with that as well. It’s high time the US reestablishes with its friends and foes we are no longer backseat driving and if you do something that any other tin pot dictator will believe goes unnoticed well you’ve received your wake up call. You either trust Trump or you do not plain and simple and if you don’t well then ok we know where you stand

> We outta nuke the Russians preemptively for even daring to challenge us on this! <

Let’s not get carried away here. A couple of cruise missiles fired from the Baltic and aimed at St. Petersburg should do the trick.

“Do tell, that was the motivation for Assad to use chemical weapons?”

Let me go inside the mind of a sick, demented, tinpot dictator.

Okay, I am back. He thought that he had both Russia and USA in the bag. He thought he had their full backing. Well, not USA’s apparently. And he is regretting it right now as I type.

Russian fishing trawlers used to harass our ships on our own coasts. I was on watch (04 dark 15) on a loaded tanker headed up the Oregon Coast when one came full speed at me within throwing distance. Late 70’s

Exactly. The media is the one in a tailspin.

Putin has to do *something* else the globalists start making up lies and frame-ups about him in this matter.

You are not allowed to say that.

Fox and NBC will have nothing to talk about.

What next, Russsia (after murdering people all over the world) will call this an unacceptable act of “aggression” ??

Yep, this is Kabuki theater.

The absolute scary stupidity of that statement unless it was sarcasm is mind boggling. MAD stands for mutually assured destruction......no thanks, I have no bunker to survive in unlike the elite.

So somebody sends a picture of that frigate leaving to confront US ships in the Med. Nice show. With their presence in Syria, you would think they already have something near by.

Why the heck are we worried enough about Syria, to put us in danger of nuclear war with Russia, as it has no stragic benefit to the US????????????

This is beyond stupid.

this could all be part of kabuki theater

It does necessitate the Trump administration negotiating with Russians, at the very time the swamp creatures are going on a two-week vacation.

My biggest fear is that Trump won't wise up and remove the swamp creatures from his pond before they take over. We know who the problems are, why doesn't President Trump? (until now, since the campaign began, he's been very good at picking up on things freepers have figured out)

Russia is our natural ally in many ways.

Hopefully, you're right, because if Trump and Putin are both too prideful for a graceful exit, we could be winding up to . . .

Just disposing of some old missiles


That thought actually crossed my mind too. When you use something that is reaching its expiration date, the monetary cost, at least, is very low.

Russian “fishing trawlers” (the ones with more than 100 radio and radar antenae) used to drift and wait until we were hooked up with an oiler or ammo ship off Yankee Station and then steam straight towards us at their flank speed and force an early breakaway. This game’s been played a long time.
