“So, just guessing, I think this will be the issue that either keeps DT in office or opens a window for them to get him. While everyone in Congress knows we can’t let Fatboy move his program forward much more, the “no foreign wars” crowd on the Right and ALL Ds will be champing at the bit to remove him if he does anything that commits any American troops in any way, even commando raids. This will be the toughest nut he has to crack as President”
Trump will do what’s right on N. Korea at the correct point in time, based on US intelligence reporting to him and his basic gut instinct which is seldom wrong. Regardless of what anyone says in order to try to stop him from doing so, anyone.
Trump will ignore the naysayers and those who threaten him with impeachment or whatever, and will do what is right for this country and by default, the global community. And Trump will eliminate the North Korean nuclear threat one way or the other, before he is out of office. History, in retrospect should praise him for taking the bull by the horns and eliminating the threat of N. Korea and its nukes from the vernacular of current global threats. Trump will do it because he knows he’s the only one on the current global political scene with the b*lls and guts to do so.
It is like when Israel, over global condemnation for doing so at the time, took out first an Iraq nuclear reactor in 1981 and then a Russian built Syrian site in 2007, for which the global community should have thanked their lucky stars that Israel eliminated these threats to world peace, but of course they minimized any praise (that they secretly actually feel) of Israel because the majority of the world is chock full of anti-Semites.
Trump will do what is right regardless of the naysayers and the world will one day thank him too, if they are at all honest, but probably won’t unless the actual historical results forces them to do so. And then they will most likely damn him with faint praise.
Correct. I wasn’t saying he won’t do the right thing. I’m saying that it will be a festering sore. It may last throughout all eight years.
Reagan had SEVERAL NSC MEETINGS about Libya beginning in 1981. But it wasn’t til 1986—the second year of his re-election, that he finally took action.
