[flamingdem]

2. An airfield was attacked by single volley of 50 Tomahawk missles

Let's see if Rump's favorables go up.

5. Any bump will be fleeting.

I don't know how I feel.

7. He's completely full of bullshit

and doing this theater with Russia's knowledge imo

[Boomerproud]

6. He'll be in the 80's.

[flamingdem]

9. And his collusion with the Russians to steal our Democracy

will be off the front pages.

8. And it begins...

10. Symbolic gesture pre-approved by Putin.

[tenorly]

16. Bingo.

This helps dispel any talk on the cable news circuit that Trump is in the tank with Putin - even if, as you pointed out, this does not actually change that one bit. It's a stone that kills quite a few PR birds for Cheeto.

My guess is that said airfield was either ancillary, abandoned, or slated to be abandoned,

11. I live about 15 miles from Ft Huachuca, a certain target.

I think I'll have another beer.

12. trump needed this. his approval rating will be over 50 by tomorrow

[anneboleyn]

14. Really? Support for attacks in Syria has always been extremely low. This looks transparent.

Alex Jones was even protesting any attacks in Syria.

13. Reserve Marine units in *some* US cities have been activated. Officers to report in.
