Trump does not go to bed except to take care of Melania. Aside from that, he does not sleep.

I doubt if it makes any difference to President Trump if they actually hit something or not.

The fact is, they did it. They attacked, whether it was successful or not.

I think he’s going to wait enough to make them nervous. The silence and no reaction is going to be unnerving more than a full out immediate response.

It shows a thoughtful, calculating of the situation and a careful planning of what to do next.

Trump is not rash, but VERY calculating and gets the most bang for his buck, so to speak.

I wonder what the total is now, 16 - 18?

I’m thinking the Iranians are hoping to do this symbolic chest thumping while praying Trump lets it go at that. I’m sure Bolton is losing his hard on about now.

Interesting situation for Trump. Maybe the situation can de-escalate. Other here said if they attack our interests, here will strongly respond.

It would be great to avoid war. But Iran wants a return to a status quo in which they are in essence invading countries throughout the region. And that status quo includes killing some Americans.

It’s a tough call. I end up agreeing with one of Tucker’s guests. Flatten them or else just leave, rather than play this game for 10 years and end up in a war anyway.

I posted this article around 20 minutes ago. Don’t know why it took so long to post just now but GP has already updated the article saying no presidential address tonight.

Hate auto correct. Otoh Trump said he would respond strongly.

Indeed. It was an attack on an Iraqi base, very large site so it’s actually unlikely to hit much of anything, with word of no American casualties. Good reason for Trump to not make a serious retaliation; it was a show for Iranian propaganda best followed up by sanctions further targeting Iranian leadership - not killing conscripts.

If anything, track the equipment and pulverize the home base. Yes we can escalate severely, but not over this.

To your point, Hannity showed pictures if himself visiting one of the bases - from 2016.

*** Looks like PDJT is NOT addressing anyone tonight ***

Wow, Maggie Haberman was right when she called it several hours ago.
