“I’m going into tin-foil hat mode. The article mentions the attackers were meant to take hostages. John Kerry is talking to the Iranians. It’s now an election year. Are the Rats trying to have a replay of 1980? With Donald Trump as Jimmy Carter(who can’t free the hostages), and whichever Rat candidate as the equivalent of Ronald Reagan?”
I’m missing the tin-foil hat aspect. Kerry is there for ONE REASON, which is to undercut Trump. But Kerry, it seems, made a HUGE mistake. He thought that Trump, at worst, would cut and run, given Trump’s reluctance to be involved in that part of the world. The evidence for that was the very quick Democrat reactions to the embassy attack, with them saying that Trump is a wimp and not responding. It seems to me to be a coordinated response with the DNC.
They just missed the part where Trump gets really angry when innocent Americans are attacked...anywhere in the world.
point of order:
The President did not get angry. He acted in a cool rational manner and destroyed the enemy of opportunity as does any great commander
Ok. Maybe it isn’t tinfoil hat. So the attackers(according to the article)were looking to take hostages, and things were supposed to be like 1979/1980 with Donald Trump playing Jimmy Carter, and whichever Rat candidate playing Ronald Reagan.
What actually happened was that Trump, with no military background and no known loyal advisers, made a measured but completely laser-focused, warlike response to an attack, which has been overdue since 1979.
He did not waste billions attacking a baby milk factory in the hopes that there would be no civilian casualties that would make the “allies” mad.
He did not launch the neocons dreamed-for multifront attack to bring about the fall of a regime which probably has the support of 95% of its people.
He acted like a real-life Michael Corleone, settling the family business.
Trump definitely does not react the way a Bush or Obama would. He gets things done and in the open quickly and leaves his opponents holding the bag on how to react without looking like feckless losers or unhinged crazies. He’s the counter-puncher Republicans and conservatives have dreamed about since Reagan.
