Hmmm...
The battle against a completely surrounded ISIS force in Raqqa (Syria) has been going on for 8 months!
Also, Trump's claim that Syrian President Assad used chemical weapons two months ago, and that Assad planned to use chemical weapons again just a few days ago, are simply not credible by my standards.
From memory, the UN has investigated 12 alleged chemical attacks in Syria.
It found chemical traces at only two sites, and it could not determine which side had used them.
Almost 100% of the information we have on Assad's alleged chemical attacks comes from local anti-Assad military groups, or from local anti-Assad "monitor" groups.
Battle of Mosul - has been going on for 8 months; per semi-official history of this battle:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Mosul_(2016present)
Trump commented on the Battle of Mosul and the Mosul Offensive that preceding it by 5 months, during the campaign. He said we were pre-announcing our plans and not taking advantage of the element of surprise.

Immediately upon assuming command, President Trump put new rules of engagement into effect. This is to what I referred when I said Trump is kicking ISIS ass in Iraq. (I could say much the same thing about Syria.)

For my Republican friends who still think George W. Bush did good by getting us into Iraq; and, for my Democrat friends who still think Barack Obama did good by thinking you could treat Muslim extremists with respect, think about the trillions of dollars they have cost this country. The tens of thousands of U.S. troops dead and severely wounded physically or emotionally. The millions of casualties in the Arab world. The thousands of people subjected to torture such as we have not seen since the Middle Ages.
Then think of how much progress we have made since Trump has taken the oath of office. America First is not isolationism, but is the alternative to both isolationism and to neo-con one-world government.
