I am sure that Preshitident Manslut-Peehooker and his Secretary of State Cuck Kushner would be happy to stay in the war in Syria if the Saudis, UAE, Turkey, Israel and other in region rented more Trump Properties and gave their family multi-billion dollar loans.
Does anyone know whether Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Joseph Dunford disobeyed a lawful order from the Commander in Chief?
Exactly! I think this whole trade war seed was planted by Putin and his operatives.
Based on the ho-hum approach to emoluments I’m surprised Trump hasn’t formed “Donald Trump Defense Supply and Logistics LLC” and gotten into the arms business. Apparently there are effectively no prohibitions against it. He’d just have to say he didn’t have anything to do with managing it, Eric and Don Jr were handling it all.
Well-liked officials, like CIA Director Mike Pompeo…
Well-liked by whom?
“Trump has reportedly bragged to confidants that his new National Security Adviser John Bolton, who was not in the meeting, “has his back” on his desire to withdrawal from Syria.”
the Bolton who is seeing White House attorneys about conflicts of interest… PAC, and Super PAC, Mercer, and Cambridge Analytica and NRA videos…
Bolton may have Trump’s back, but will he get a seat at the table? At the table with the man who ran saying he’d turn the generals loose to WIN.
As Sarah Huckabee Sanders once told us, in the part of the Traditional Wild West none of us knew Arkansas was part of, they have a saying about excessively thin skinned individuals who become President and who are irked when his shallow, uninformed, unread, middle brow, half baked ideas are not greeted with praise all around the assembled Cabinet and by the Media: “All hat, no cowboy.”
He actually did make a comment that if Saudi Arabia wanted to belly up with more money, he would keep troops in Syria.
So I think he is already in that business.
Erik Prince, the brother of cabinet member Betsy Devos, is up to his eyeballs in mercenary/murder for hire contracts. It would be suprising if deep at the end of some byzantine maze Trump wasn’t monetizing some war somewhere.
Is there any time when Dipshit Dennison isn’t “irked” about something?
When ISN’T Trump ‘irked’ is the better question. When will he fire the military? First Syria and now the border. What’s a wannabe despot to DO???
This is what a cowardly neo con does. Instead of serving. Instead of running in there without a gun. Inst…never mind.
Except for the part where ‘led’ is the past participle of lead.
The Grand Old Puppets gotta follow Putin’s orders or else that
Russian nerve gas will be used to thin out the herd.
Remember when we had top secret US intelligence networks,
top secret agents and top secret assets ?
…that’s now all Russian controlled now.
I’m developing jaw problems from all dropping over the outright ignorance of this guy. How can you be this old and not know basic stuff? Talk about being in a bubble.
Hmm but wasn’t that gesture aimed at Assad?
Heard coming from the Oval Office :
"Jesus Christ, Mattis !!! I’ll bet you Saddam never had a fucking problem like this !!! "
Just Git R Done sez President Larry the Cable Guy.
“Dunford argued that a swift exit would give countries like Russia…an unencumbered opportunity to advance their own interests in the region.”
He knows that. THAT is the entire point.
KOMPROMAT.
i’m beginning to think that the president* has some sort of anger issues. I don’t think it’s just me, either.
An adviser is supposed to give you good advice, not just “have your back.”
But Trump doesn’t need advice because he’s, like, a very smart person.
