As opposed to fearless Obama who paid the Iranians off and was too embarrassed to admit it, who did nothing when China stole the identities of millions of federal workers and contractors, and who, while supposedly knowing about Russian hacking waited years to do anything and then told Putin to "cut it out"? LOL!

The corruption? George soro's influence on the election?

The media did more to influence the election that russia could have possibly ever done x10.

And? IF Putin's the great pal of the US Trump claims, Obama should be credited with taking the lead.

IF not, why is Trump being so generous with praise for the man?

As opposed to the man who did nothing when 243 US servicemen were murdered in a Beirut barracks?

Yes I know.

There is less than two week before Trump takes office, and Trump still hasn't launched nukes at Putin.

What is Trump doing, waiting until he gets into office?

FIRE ZE MISSILES!

Hezbollah was the enemy and they were not exactly easy to pin down. At least Reagan didn't try to pay off the Iranians for supplying Hezbollah. I don't know if he told them to cut it out.

Amazing that all of a sudden the libs want to push the envelope and start a war, now that their weak, ineffective, sissy boy is about to leave office.

I guess even they know what a feeble weakling he is and decided to wait until a real President could take over before they want to get "tuff".

It's international waters, the Iranians know our rules of engagement in regards to proximity.

This is ado about nothing, imo.

Man, DuPont must be proud! That ol' Teflon is still working.

Thanks for your input, I was unaware the US just shakes off the murders of its servicemen when avenging them isn't easy.
