I agree 100%

Except obama let isis form and didn't act until they started making national news. This is cleaning up his mess

So, what is the admin ultimate goal in Afghanistan now that they are not playing games anymore? How about Syria?

Trump is getting pretty excited about all his new toys. Glad he's demonstrated so much maturity and good judgement over the last 3 months.

They should drop a couple of my ex-girlfriends I bet they still weigh more than this bomb.

I believe the Commander of the US forces in Afghanistan signed off on the use of this bomb.

Another "message" sent, this one aimed at underground tunnels and more.

Jury is out on if this was a good or bad move, but I will say that this and the air strike on the airstrip are very pointed and specific uses of power.

I believe Trump is letting his military personnel who are involved call the shots - and trusting their judgment.

In other words, he is governing and allowing people to do their job.

Donnie's all sad eyes, crying over Syrian babies killed by Bashar.

Who do you think this big bomb killed with collateral damage? Maybe some video of the horrific results will surface and we'll see what it's done.

When Twitter fingers become trigger fingers.

Nothing like a the largest broom in the world to clean it up.
