Trump does not support USA involvement in Ukraine certainly not at Soros level
The Syrian retaliation was based on false intel of a chem attack
And we at times have stupidly supported the ISIS side there
It’s another place we should have avoided
Israel has an Assad beef let them handle it themselves they are capable enough
Assad bad enough is not worse than his challengers
No matter what Trump did the media would attack him for it
Trump has said he would be more aggressive than Biden in Ukraine.
He is right about that and you are wrong to wish he would not.
All of this is a function of American weakness so showing Putin weakness will not restore the world or protect America.
We did support ISIS at times— that was stupid.
I am fine with Israel being allowed to act upon Assad. But the US must not restrain them.
You are right that the media would attack Trump no matter what.
But we all need to be honest about what Trump would likely do if he were President. It is highly unlikely he would show Putin the weakness that so many on this thread are looking for.
Popular advisers like Sebastian Gorka do not indicate the appeasement vision so often promoted here at FR.
