Conservative talk show host, Michael Savage, who fervently supported Trump during the Presidential campaign, soured on him today. Savage, referencing his background in science, having a PhD in epidemiology, said the alleged gas attack in the ISIS controlled city of Idlib was most likely phosgene and not sarin.
Backing up his claim that the attack did not contain sarin, Savage made reference to photos showing first responders attending to bodies without gloves or protective gear. Had sarin been used in the attack, all of those men in white helmets would be dead.
In nearly a 15 minute soliloquy over the attack, Savage lamented that the neocon 'military tweet' by Trump was a ploy to increase his popularity, in light of falling poll numbers. Verbosely, Savage hemmed and hawed with disappointment, dispirited that he spent over a year advocating for Trump, who said he eschewed the interventionist policies of people like McCain, Graham, and Schumer, only to cave in shortly after winning the Presidency.
Savage also questioned the timing of Jared Kushner's trip to Iraq, coupled with Bannon's timely demotion from the NSC -- just ahead of the attacks as being highly suspicious.
"This whole thing stinks to high heaven,' said Savage. Furthering his criticism of the President, Savage proclaimed: "It looks like Hillary, deep state won, and Trump is doing her bidding."
As it pertained to who was responsible for the attack, Savage reminded his audience that just last week Putin was considered to be the smartest and most diabolical man on earth. If so, why on earth would he permit Assad to launch a chemical weapons attack, when they had already defeated the rebels, which was sure to turn public opinion against them?
"Why would he do it, you morons you?", said Savage.
Who are we supporting? According to Lindsey Graham, the 'free Syrian army.'
Savage exploded: "The free Syrian Army? There is no such thing. The free Syrian Army are our moderate terrorists created by the CIA and John McCain. John McCain and Lindsey Graham are the mouthpieces for this army of murderers."
"The west jumped to a conclusion, before there was any investigation."
A must listen to a voice of reason.

Whatever, Kazan. I noticed you have included references to 9-11 and evolution. I’m not sure why you bring up these topics as linkages to our discussion.
Are you trying to insinuate that various beliefs concerning these two topics may be viewed as absurd, and thus perhaps belief in this topic is also absurd? I don’t make those linkages, but you are free to do so. (That is why I say, Whatever.)
Yes. How dare anyone question the Trump. The Trump worship is as bad as Obama worship. He’s a man, not a messiah.
“Savage got Trump elected doncha know.”
Trump himself has stated that he wouldn’t have been elected without Savage ,
It's the reemergence of the same ole Bushbots. Just look at the way they swarm. The attitude is identical, even if the players have somewhat shifted. I'm 99% behind my President (His doing, not mine). I'm 110% behind my America. None of this makes a lick of sense. Of course a *Bot can justify anything in their puny little minds. I'm a bit more discerning. I'm not a Savage fan either. In this instance he is spot on! There is no reason that this HAD to be done right now. It could have waited for some proper looking into the whole event, there was no urgency to respond, none. I mean, we all know that muslims do lie! We also know, our IC lies like a rug. If PDJT relied on these people and it turns out they lied to him then it's still on him. He should have bled the swamp dry the very first day of his admin. It don't get no simpler than that!
True, true, and true ; )
I just HOPE (and how would we ever know) the decision didn’t come down to:
“Jared, go over there and give me the real scoop re: what’s going on.”
“Dad, Assad is horrible, for real. We need real action. Bibi agrees.”
Bombs away!
LOL — You haven’t been in the military have you? What that picture shows is the use of empty containers filled with either sand or concrete to serve as a shrapnel/blast barrier. They could have used empty barrels or sandbags instead — or whatever else was available. From the look of the BDA photos after the US strike, they could have used a lot more.
Another “new” use comes to mind: barriers at entrances to hardened aircraft hangars to help keep drones from flying through the hangar openings.
The same containers are used to contain chemical agents.
There are a lot of unanswered questions and a lot of agents of propaganda attempting to obfuscate the situation even more. Everyone has their own agenda.
the one thing that seems indisputable is that chemical weapons were deployed.
If Donald Trump says the Syrian govt. did it, I believe him.
How do you know it has failed? By what measure do you make this claim? Are we not the most powerful nation on earth? It seems to me that whatever it is that we have been doing has been working pretty well.
At this point I’m hoping that Trump and his senior advisors are smart enough to strongly suspect (if they don’t know) that this attack was either an Islamist hoax and/or, as suggested by the Russians, the result of the Assad bombing hitting some local chemical stores. And Trump used this supposed Syrian attack as a pretext to bomb the airfield to send a message of his “toughness”.
Of course, as a 99% Trump supporter (i.e., just about everything except the initial version of RyanCare and the stated belief in what the local Al Queda Islamists were saying about a chemical attack on babies) this could simply be wishful thinking on my part.
Um, yes, I am.
The one thing that is indisputable is that you posted a link to a months old (look at the dates of the early comments to your linked video) Islamist propaganda video. While you might not believe it, ISIS is not above doing a chemical poisoning or attack on their own people (or, better yet, on captured Christians/Yazidis) to make propaganda videos. They have done this in the past.
OK. I don’t make that connection.
Catherine Austin Fitts, (worked in the Bush Admin), shares the story of how many years ago, her gov’t employee friend would tell her she would refuse to hold a confidential conversation in a room that contained any electronics whatsoever.
This was at a time when thinking electronic devices could be used as cameras/audio recorders was unimaginable for the common person.
At the time, it seemed very crazy and extreme.
Now, years later, we find that the gov’t’s advances/capabilities in technology far exceeded the wildest imaginations of common, ordinary Americans.
I believe we do well to remember that recollection when viewing/analyzing unfolding events.
Good post,Savage has been looking for an excuse since with Trump around he doesn’t get the attention he needs to be sustainable.Time for retirement Michael.
Savagel needs a Trump to pound on for the next 8 years,its who he is,a midget complainer.
Exactly,once again Trump has not even been in office for 100 days and he’s expeccted to know all and make perfect decisions every time?Well good luck with that.He’s a brilliant guy and doing the best he can we are lucky to have him.
After listening to Bill Mitchell make his argument pro-strikes, I’ve just changed my position regarding the Syria strikes.
I’m about halfway through and now I finally see President Trump’s strategy. It is so far more brilliant than I could have ever imagined.
DEBATE: Syria Strike - Genius or Lunacy?

Yeah, I heard that yesterday—Bill M. is a freak. No, it isn’t great leadership when a president shoots a few missiles in where they know they won’t hurt someone. We weren’t impressed with Clinton or Obama did that. Same deal here. And I don’t think the Chinese or North Koreans or ISIS got the idea that Trump was suddenly bigger and badder for pulling off what essentially was a harmless stunt.
And I am still not convinced that Assad did it, when we know the Soros-funded White Helmets have staged such incidents and when we have the Wikileaks emails from 2013 referring to the CIA setting up just such false flags over there.
it’s not just these photos, there’s video of dead children Justin Raimondo posted on twitter. I guess various people shot the video, and in one of them they accidentally pan back over a dead girl who you see opening one eye and then closing it again quickly.
It’s not like we havent been subject to terrorist propoganda before, back in the day the palestinians were Kings of staged atrocity photos
Oh pooh, and here I thought I was posting something new for you : ( LOL.
I’m not saying I believe Assad did it. I don’t believe he did. What I like is the concept of creating leverage wrt the long term goal of setting up safe zones there, not here for these people.
DJT has to clean it out before this can be done. If not, when an attack occurs there, he would be blamed.
I see this as part of his long term strategy to get the rapefugees out of our country and send them back home.
I suggest you read your first sentence again and really think about what you just typed:
“I believe Fox News and I believe the intelligence given to Trump.”
