The talking heads, press and politicos on all the MSM this morning are fawning over Twitler like he's suddenly a wise poet warrior because he lobbed a few missiles.
The truth is as it's always been. What is foremost in his tiny brain is the last thing he saw on tv, or the last conversation he had with someone smarter than him.
One day before: McMasters takes over the NSC. King Abdullah comes to the White House. Fox and every other network run hi-res vids of apparent gas attacks. Barrel bombs = okay. Chemical weapons = bad. The Senate goes nuclear.
This douche is not all the sudden a leader. He is still a responder.
I implore my friends, do not take your eyes off the ball.

(6,419 posts)MSM along with many who I consider casual bystanders to the near death spiral he's created...wag the dog is, to me, synonymous with cultural ADWT syndrome. Attention Deficit "What's That!?" syndrome where nothing is more exciting as the next shiny thing that flies past my face...or in this case the next thing that goes "boom".
These guys are such asshats.

(6,254 posts)This scumbag has taken every opportunity to blame Obama for the 'huge mess' he inherited.
The only thing he inherited was a lot of money from his racist daddy.

As parents, we get all excited over that first word, (that we've probably repeated a thousand times) only to realize that "da-da" is only the beginning of a journey that will have many setbacks.
And I find it ironic how Hillary mentioned the need for airstrikes in a speech not long before this happened. I was wondering how long it would take, before he took the bait. He's so clueless...

troll isn't anymore "presidential" than when he gave that "speech" and talked in his indoor voice.
