*** They would like nothing better than to embroil Trump in a conflict to piss his base off. ***
I was Trump’s base. For me, that ship has already sailed.
We are still in Syria, Afghanistan, threatening VZ, Cuba, Iran. And trying to bend a bunch of other countries to the neocon will.
I agree with your overall premise, but I still give Trump a break for this. If a surgeon walks into a totally botched surgery, they can't just ‘close’ the incision. I don't think the fix for a lot of these situation is just walking away. I wish it was. That said, I don't want the neocons to have ANY input into anything that has to do with US policy.
