Quick, someone get John Kirby his pink pussy hat and smelling salts.... he is having another liberal fainting spell.
If you want to loose weight by purging read the comments at CNN.
Nobody know what is really behind these remarks, do they? Trump may have discussed everything with the military leaders, and agreed on a particular bluffing strategy.
Trump basically told asked them, “How do you keep an asshole in suspense?”
And then he left them hanging. I don’t know if they will ever catch on.
Yeah, Obama was so PRO MILITARY that you don’t want him asking for more options quicker in public.
Wouldn’t want Un or Iran getting the wrong idea.
CORPSEMAN, now THAT wasn’t just unwise, that was butt stupid CNN.
In 1984, President Ronald Reagan makes a joking but controversial off-the-cuff remark about bombing Russia while testing a microphone before a scheduled radio address. While warming up for the speech, Reagan said My fellow Americans, I am pleased to tell you today that Ive signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes.

Nothing quite as absurd as a lecture on responsibility from @FakeNews CNN.
But when Obama was telling countries the hour of the day we would be pull out our troops, CNN thought that was military genius.
My son seemed to de-stress with talking, not directly about what he had just been through as that is all Secret, but about how he saw the army. He grabbed the opportunity to go to flight school as the reason to not quit the army. Pilots are still strictly merit and ability guys and no Obama BS.
Sorry if there are typos and errors. When I am very tired the prism in my glasses loses effect and I see everything in doubles. It is hard to keep track of what my fingers are doing.
Got their attention going in another direction - and they try to manipulate him.....Priceless!
“He read this off a sheet of paper. So, clearly it was premeditated. But even if his complaint has merit — all presidents want more options — it was completely inappropriate for him to publicly rebuke his military leaders in this fashion.”
First off, the top officers are not snowflakes, so if they couldn’t take the heat of PUBLIC SCRUTINY of their business they would not be in their jobs. Secondly, they have in their roles become bureaucratic and managers of very cumbersome bureaucracies, bureaucracies that NEED to be shaken up. Third, what Trump did was useful and necessary. The top officers cannot now go back to their desks and let the bureaucracies continue to be lethargic and make bureaucratic excuses to the President, BECAUSE they are all on PUBLIC notice now.
As to Trump’s comment about the calm before the storm it was a statement with different meanings at different levels. To the generals it means that the world is a nasty place with more than enough potential powder kegs. They cannot rest on the fact that some of them have not exploded, yet; it may be merely the calm before the storm. Trump knew his statement would reach the media and be reported. To the world and its tyrants the statement was standard psychological warfare - you guys don’t know what we are up to. The generals understood what it meant to them, and the tyrants are left wondering what it means to them. A perfect twofer.
Oh, put a sock in it, John Kirby, you little snowflake.
