(2) BUT...I think Trump KNOWS this, and did it anyway because the minimal attack solved MASSIVE problems for him, sent a huge signal to China and North Korea, while handing him an easy re-load of political capital. If this "outrages" people they are naive in the extreme about how the world really works (re: Michael Corleone quote to Kay in Godfather II).l
(3) What Savage did was DISGUSTING. He actually went on a rant against ISRAEL, saying Trump did it for THEM. This unleashed a torrent of disturbing Neo-Nazi calls that he had to hang up on, starting with a guy saying "Hitler did nothing wrong" (by slaughtering Jews in the Holocaust).
(4) The unhinged Savage/Jones/Milo types need to realize what Trump is up against, and trust that this is just a 3D chess move. We are NOT going to send troops there, or escalate, and don't be surprised if Trump gets this conflict ended in the next 18 months.
I hope it works out that way. Trump spanked Syria but doesn’t envision having to wrestle it to the mat.
....and a strong signal to Iran.
