Trump was right.
He sent Assad and the rest of the world a little notice that a new sheriff is in town.
A. Because I am an American.
And on a bent knee, he sent the establishment neocons in Washington a message that he understands who is truly in charge and he will pledge his fealty and submission.
I agree with you. Look, we can’t be the world’s policeman, BUT, Trump had to establish his street cred.
Tillerson said this was the third gas attack, not the first.
If there are no more such attacks, I think you have to give this an A.
According to Tillerson the purpose of the strike was to let everyone including Assad, Iran and Russians know that we would not allow WMD attacks to be normalized. This was a strike against the idea of States using chemical weapons. Syria just happened to be the one to make zee boo-boo.
So, I’m waiting for results and hoping they are good.
