Send Jared and Invanka over to talk with him. Or invite him to Mar-A-Lago. Or something.

Cause - DT said that he had not spoken with Russian President Vladimir Putin about the attack.

Effect - “I don’t want to say what I’m going to be doing with respect to Syria.”

This is going to get very complicated very quickly. The situation is untenable.

It is also going to be very tricky for this particular crew working through the still not quite sure what is there but something is there Russian Haze.

The idea that some action could be taken by getting Russia to soften/change its adamant support for the Syrian government is going to be subject to another “Who knew it would be so hard?” situation for team trump.

Reuters: Russian TV shows Syrian attack - but with no victims.

Boy, does THIS ever have Assad shaking in his boots.

“Something should happen to Assad. I guess we’ll demote him from the NSC. I’ll check with Jared and see if we can do that.”

1932 - “You have nothing to fear but fear itself.”

1961 - “Ask what you can do for your country.”

2017 - “I guess something should happen.”

Israelis, Turks or Saudis? Which one really did it?

I thought the same thing. Someone’s been watching too much Scorsese in addition to whatever else he’s doing instead of being a competent leader.

“I don’t want to say what I’m going to be doing with respect to Syria.”

There’s nothing to say because he will be doing exactly nothing.

He’s just not that into the Presidency.

He’ll get to work on this right after another weekend in the sun. Or he won’t. And he couldn’t care less what any of us think about that.

Trump: “Something should happen…” And when Putin tells me what to do, I’ll let you all know.

Now THAT’S some forceful language…none of that mamby pamby, libtard, weak kneed talk. I guess. Or something.

It really seems like he’s speaking the words without feeling the sentiment. As if he realizes he should be appalled at what Assad did, but really isn’t.

Beyond that, his only “strategy” seems to be blaming Obama. Needless to say, that won’t be fixing the problem.

Forgive me if I don’t trust Jared to fix it.

Forgive me if I don’t see much of a difference between these two. Both are insane maniacs…but only one is a fictional character.

“Will no one rid me of this turbulent dictator?”

No, they won’t.

This might be one of the few places where trump makes a not-completely-horrible decision simply by virtue of being uninformed and uninterested.
