Lends more credence that Kushner, McMasters and the neocons have way too much influence

quote:

Trump isn’t alone. U.S. officials and Syria experts are still debating what Syrian President Bashar Assad was thinking when he ordered a chemical attack sure to spark international outrage. Maybe Assad was hoping to terrorize his opponents. Perhaps he was testing Trump’s limits for his military planning. Trump officials even initially considered the possibility that Assad had not ordered the strike at all, according to one administration official, and that a military commander might have gone rogue without Assad’s knowledge.

He's the commander in chief and is supposed to be some kind of an "alpha".

Check your reading comprehension. They weren't questioning if Assad did it. They were trying to understand his motive - why he did it.

Politico is trying to save face, because their fact checker had Syria chemical weapons free for 3 years.. due to the Great Barack Obama, Susan Rice, and John Kerry...

Even the propaganda is at a 2nd-grade level.

That's why it is so incredibly mind boggling how anybody could fall for it.

Nobody gives a frick what Trump says. He lies as a part of his normal speech pattern.

Nobody is listening.

He should be skeptical. He also makes decisions to send military persons into war. It's all on him. HIs adviser picks are his. His decisions are his. His misspeaks are his.

He's the guy, and I'm not sure why he wanted the job. I suspect he loves the USA, and I suspect he thought no one could do what he thinks he can do.
