What war are you talking about?

A few missiles were fired to make a point, nothing more, nothing less.

Trump's ratings are on the rise not because of firing a few missiles, but because he has done a great job navigating the minefields left behind by the previous administrations.

In case you haven't noticed (clearly you haven't noticed) Trump has kept us out of war in Syria, and has wisely outmaneuvered North korea by working with China.

It doesnt matter which country will be attacked in the future. The neo-cons have a long list they want to attack. Very flattering media coverage after his bombing has clearly had an impact and he loves flattery. This is clearly a great strategy for him going forward. He has demoted Bannon and the America first crowd and it is having an effect. The dominant media likes what they see and they will continue to praise him the more he bombs.

Really?

Now, are you willing to say that about every politician?

What has been proven beyond any doubt during the election, is that you dems have been wrong about everything you have said about Trump, you completely lack any ability to read him.

Now, the one thing you have sort of right is that there is a list of countries that the government wants to attack. However, it's not just neo-cons, it's many democrats was well that support war/regime change. Remember that Mr. Peace Prize winner Obama continued right down the Bush's list of countries to invade/overthrow with his actions in Libya, and Syria.

There will be tremendous pressure put on Trump to start more wars, however, so far he has not given in to that pressure.

You can guess or assume, but no one knows what he wants but himself.

Have you ever had anyone stick words in your mouth or claim something on you that isnt true?
It is not kind to do such a thing.
It's my job to evaluate Trump, not be kind to him.

He wants to be a wartime president. I'm not backing off.

I didnt even vote for Obama nor Hillary.

Now that Trump sees how much praise he gets the more he bombs, his extreme narcissism is very dangerous.

No need to back off your opinion. So whom exactly are we going to go to war with? In your opinion.

Funny, I've said on here several times that Trump isn't the next Messiah, he was the simply best candidate running.

I've never once said Trump is perfect, and can do no wrong.

The difference between me, and the dems, is that I have a much better read on Trump (that was proven time, and again during the election). So, when Trump does something like say, fires a few missiles, I don't jump to the conclusion that he is, without any doubt, going to launch a major ground war in Syria.

One would think that the dems that have turned out to be wrong about everything they thought, or said about Trump, would eventually become open to what the people that have been correct about him from the beginning have to say.

If I was so consistently wrong about something, I wouldn't be constantly posting about it. Yet we have the people on here that have made fools of themselves with the complete nonsense they have been posting for the last year, and a half about Trump, have only doubled down.
