There was already one false announcement that he’d decided, which the White House denied.

Democrat congressmen and senators have been saying that more troops will require more taxes, and that will certainly raise a lot of controversy.

Official announcement isn’t until December 1, if this isn’t repudiated.

And even if he does it, we still have the big question: What are the rules of engagement? Will these new troops be allowed to fight back if attacked? Will they have prompt air cover when they need it?

The ROE is to immediatally drop your weapon, throw your hands in the air, and start reading the “Miranda Rights”.
