They will already be calling DRUMPF a War President (as if thats a compliment). THERE IS NOTHING DRUMPF CAN DO TO MAKE HIM A HERO.
DRUMPF says he was profoundly moved/changed/touched by the pictures of the chemical victims. I dismiss this on the grounds that nothing in his previous entire life has touched a human, humanitarian, truthful chord in him.
That said, this particular military action is in the category of a stopped clock is correct twice per day. It takes nothing unique about DRUMPF that distinguishes it.
The really astute, reliable commentators (not the retired generals/ideologues) are saying that this action was a slap on the wrist of ASSAD and the minimal response that could have been taken.
Regarding DRUMPF, he has NO moral authority, even when he is using a situation of morality/immorality as his rationale. It is a very CONVENIENT wag-the-dog way out of his disastrous personal situation occupying the presidency. Oh, God, he is asking for Gods wisdom and talking about souls words he hasnt lived by in his whole life.
And hes reading stuff about ending terrorism in the whole world. AS IF terrorism, crime, murder, theft, and whatever other activities that are part of human nature and behavior can be ENDED!
Odd/funny: Hillary was quoted as news just a few hours before advocating for striking air fields in Syria BINGO! His advisors were telling him, Hillary says we should do this. Haha.
So now, well never hear the end of it from him: Hell keep ragging and nagging that he did A VERY BIG THING, that he did what OBAMA didnt do, and that all of his criminal mobster activities need to be forgotten about. It's a stopped clock.
