I agree with this. Instead of allowing or banning Syrians, why not allow them to stay home which they want? This was a good move ON Trump's part but he needs to do more.
Do more what, exactly? Launch more million-dollar missiles at more airbases, to such minimal effect that they are up and running again within 24 hours? I can't imagine why that makes sense to you. On any level.
This is quite the relief after Obama's years of ineffectual high-fiving and glass-clinking diplomacy.
Diplomacy is hard work and it's complicated. Leading with the military has many unintended consequences, we haven't learned anything from our mistakes. Do you think this action was a success or just a feel good moment, you need to step back and think of all that could have gone wrong.
Wars are won on the ground not from the air, that is true in every war. We will see how this turns out because Syria is bombong that same city, if Trump doesn't have a next step he will appear ineffectual.
I am against it. Looks like America First is being replaced by Trump First. The corrupt Washington Elite Establishment that Trump was promised to roll over and demolish is now calling the shots. In order for Trump to save his skin Trump has to do as told or else face removal from office via impeachment. Washington establishment insider Pence is on deck waiting to take over if Trump doesn't fall in line and do as ordered. Trump had to demote Bannon or they both were going to get the boot. Trump had to change his tune about supporting Assad's stay in power so Trump can remain as a powerless figurehead that he now has become.
This is what happens to someone that promised to challenge and break up the existing order. Only a stupid moron would openly request foreign government to violate the law for his behalf. That request is now rendering serious repercussions in that the Republican establishment is holding it over Trump's head to get rid of him in case he decides to follow through on his promises that conflicts with theirs such as Globalization, Russia and military policy in the Middle East. Trump seriously underestimated the Republican establishment's ability to make him become obeisant to their will and dictates. He foolishly assumed his Republican enemies would be powerless to stop him if he became President because he blew through them during the primaries.
For it.. Wish would go all the way and bomb the crap out of Damascus and the regime's headquarters. Then go after North Korea. These two regimes are big time threats to the security of their regions and the world if they are allowed to operate with impunity.
Take out the Regimes and take out ISIS after.
Should have been done a LONG time ago but this is what you get with "do nothing" liberals in charge for years. You have ISIS, 911, Nutty Regimes running wild
Against. And I voted for Trump. I would still vote for Trump because Trump's domestic policy is GREAT. His foreign policy looks to be a carbon copy of Hillary Clinton's, so that's a push. Hopefully he can be steered away from the liberal John McCain war-monger types who are influencing his decisions.
^^^^Nailed it. I had hopes for better, that he would not turn into a continuation of the Bush-Obama foreign policy and actually would put Americans first. Sadly he seems as willing as previous presidents to sacrifice American lives and dollars trying to help other nations.
You have no clue what you're talking about. Obama attempted to do things in Syria. He was denied by the Republican Congress.
Obama failed in Syria. He foolishly drew a "Red Line" believing that was enough to keep Assad in place.
Assad saw Obama for the fool he was and crossed it anyway. Obama did nothing. It's history. And it speaks for itself. Furthermore the only reason he went in there was to make it possible for the Saudis (Democrat backers) to build an oil pipeline all the way to Europe.
