Nigel Farage and other right-wing populists turn on Donald Trump after missile strikes
Telegraph UK ^ | 7 April 2017 | Helena Horton

Many former Donald Trump supporters have turned on the President after his decision to retaliate against the Assad regime for its chemical weapons attack.

Nigel Farage, Milo Yiannopoulos Katie Hopkins, right-wing vlogger Paul Joseph Watson, Ukip leader Paul Nuttall and Ukip donor Arron Banks are among the Trump supporters who have been disappointed by their hero.

Mr Farage said: "I am very surprised by this. I think a lot of Trump voters will be waking up this morning and scratching their heads and saying 'where will it all end?'

Get well soon from your Trump Cheerleader Syndrome...

I'd rather be a cheerleader for someone who has proven himself, than a deranged "sunshine patriot" by throwing a hysterical tantrum because he did something I disagree with...

I don't have a marijuana thread.

Not that that has anything to do with the price of tea in China...

No one gives a damn about the unborn children that are murdered on an assembly line basis by abortion and their parts are sold to the highest bidder before they cool to room temperature. So, yeah. I guess we showed them. Exactly what we showed them. Exactly what is unclear. This is the same thing as slapping your wife or child when your neighbor yells at you. And you tell him, next time you yell at me, I will do it again.

You seem to have some kind of queer hook. Yes?

Correct we also do not have proof it was sarin.

There are reports of people jerking and seizing and it is suggested that this is a sarin-type response.

Yeah, me... LOL

And I didn’t say our hands were “clean.” I just stated a fact. That we did not “overthow” Allende. The military junta did that with no US aid or support. Although it is true that Nixon and Kissinger thought about it and did everything short of a coup to destabilize him. Since we were fighting for our survival against a Soviet Empire that wanted us destroyed and used everyone they could to help bring this about, we were rightfully scared of anyone left-leaning.

Don’t call me a liar dear... The declassified documents support MY side...

Trump had to send a message. And he did.

Trump sent a message all right. And the message he sent in the form of bending his knee was a demonstration of fealty and submission to John McCain, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and the rest of the entrenched Washington DC neocons.

Sad.

I can assure you that Trump has better intel than we who look in from the outside.

Have faith.

His entire NSC backed this plan and so did Mattis. Actually, it was Mattis and the NSA who submitted the 3 plans, one of which was chosen by the President.

This was a brilliant plan, brilliantly executed.

There was nerve gas storage at the air field attacked. It was completely and successfully avoided so that the gas would not spill into the environment.

This was a pin point attack.

Give it some time and you'll see.

I highly doubt Trump agreed to the mission unless they knew the sarin gas was stored there!

I still have trouble believing Assad would use Sarin. Especially in a situation where the casualty rate would be as low as it is. A couple of 500 pound bombs would have killed as many people as this gas attack.

Artillary fire would have killed even more. Makes no sense.

Trump and Tillerson would have advised our allies in the region before the attack on Syria.

Nothing in the news yet about al Sisi, but Saudi Arabia and Israel are ecstatic.

Don’t worry. Assad’s grip on power is secure and he’ll be killing again in no time.

Good. At least Assad kills the right people.

Sarin and other such killers cause widespread fear and even panic. Yes, I have killed men with bombs I called in plus one time I was close enough to call in arty. None of that caused the widespread fear and panic of sarin and other such weapons.
