Putin and Trump in cahoots to distract us from the FBI investigation. "LOOK! WE ARE NOT IN BED TOGETHER! TRUMP BOMBED RUSSIA ALLY!" And if it's NOT that, then whatever happened to AMERICA FIRST? Trump has NUMEROUS tweets out there railing against the IDEA of bombing Syria under the guise of AMERICA FIRST And if it's NEITHER of those then Trump watched cable news, saw the footage of the chemical strike, and launched 59 missiles over a broken heart
Wow - even when it's possible to justify his actions, Trump has to give a totally bogus justification:
As somebody pointed out, the fact that this happened RIGHT after he'd finished a meal with Xi Jinping is almost certainly not coincidental.
Funny you should say that: http://www.rawstory.com/2017/04/hil...-fields-hours-before-trump-does-exactly-that/ And the answer is: I would have a lot more faith that she'd consulted with people who know what the fuck they're doing.
I think it's a good sign that this was (according to NY Times) on the "tame" end of the range of options presented to Trump by Mattis. Supposedly a purely military target, although of course it's probably naive to think nearly 60 missiles were fired and civilians weren't killed.
Another thing. The Trump supporters here called Hillary a warmonger for potentially being in favor of a no-fly zone over Syria. Well what the ever loving fuck is this then?
There was no war in Syria before Clinton was Secretary of State and the Nobel Peace Prize winner started bombing more nations in the region than just Iraq and Afghanistan.
