What constitutes winning the job in Afghanistan?
No More Nams!
He really does. He sounds a bit sick.
If America is going to continue down this path we are going to have to up the birthrate. Dana and her doggie aint gonna cut it
DK about anti-trump but s/he sure sounds anti-YOU.
Some FReepers need a “vacation”.
(listening on radio)
I missed the first part of Trump’s speech
did he mention working
with the Northern Alliance?
Finally a realistic and factual assessment of this deep state nonsense. I voted for President Donald Trump not Jeb Trump.
You can intimidate the hell out of people, without actually killing them.
This isn't the sort of speech where he's supposed to be full of laughs, making jokes, etc.
Tomorrow's rally will be a different atmosphere I'm sure.
Maybe he’s supports a football team Virginia Tech always beats! :^)
No idea where you see a “sick” and “dispirited” President. I sure didn’t. Maybe you misinterpreted the difference in delivery between the way he speaks at his rallies and a pre-written speech, as this was.
Should be interesting to see if he follows up in Phoenix. I hope he continues to talk about current events rather than re-hashing his campaign speech.
A tweet from 2013. Things have changed and Trump has a lot more information now.
not instant gratification.....16 year feckless meandering....with no clear strategy other than saying to Pakistan, “nice country you have there....would be a shame if we threw our lot in with your enemy!!
I don’t remember his using that term. Perhaps someone else can better answer your question....
Hail to the Chief.
And demanding India participate.
Also stopping the micro-management from Washington--let the soldiers and generals on the ground make the decisions.
"We will no longer use American military might to construct democracies in foreign lands or try to rebuild countries in our own image. Those days are now over....our patience is not unlimited."
Really? I thought Trump looked strong and focused.
Looked and sounded alot like Jeb Trump
We haven't won a war since WW II and the reason for that is that we stopped fighting to win !
LBJ actually MICROMANAGED the Nam War and so did Mac, neither of whom were there, understood what was what, and unlike any other war...did NOT censor reporters, nor who could go there. And IF WW II war scenes had been on the then almost nonexistent T.V., every night at dinner time, those of us who would have been here now, would be speaking German or Japanese!
And for all of you uneducated, stupid, benighted posters, moaning about what the president said tonight, it was Obama who allowed al Qaeda and ISIS to not only grow and fester, but to expand and take over places that we had once freed and kept peace in! You need to learn some factual history AND get a crash course in military tactics; I suggest that you read a good translation of Julius Caesar's THE GALLIC WARS, for starters!
