Trump should recreate the Apprentice set and do weekly group discussions..much like the old fireside chats but with more participants...he could bring in Bannon on some of these as well as Roger Stone.

It would be popular IMO.

DOW

The SC has long settled that issue noting that while Congress has the undisputed power to declare war, they have effectively done so, in a limited way under the war powers act, further authorized and sustained by voting continued funding to support these various actions.

While the Constitution gives Congress the power, it does not say that Congress must voted a document called a DOW. IT is enough they authorize the president to fight one.

You don’t bomb alone.

You also give Afghans a reason to want to unite in peace.

We can’t occupy Afghanistan but we don’t need to if Afghans will.

They are going to heap that on top of the pile of things they already call him/accuse him of. It doesn’t matter what he does they will trash him for it, if he doesn’t they will trash him for that.

Those of us that support him have to have his back, we need him far worse than he needs us. I always remember he could easily have decided to retire on a beach somewhere and not concern himself with the problems this country faces.

Fewer terrorists, and as a bonus less heroin in this country.

I think it’s obvious that Trump has to give full authority to the military to fight to win. If that means using nukes, so be it. I think we need every option open. Afghanistan has a lot more valleys for terrorists to hide in. That is where we should use the nukes.

The Rooskies learned their lesson in Afghanistan.
So did the Brits, a hundred years ago.

The country isn’t worth one American soldier.
