Trump finally acted presidential

[kyzr]

President Trump just had a press conference (4:30 ET) and he spoke from the heart. He explained the terrible human cost of the permanent wars on US servicemen and their families. The "green-on-blue" attacks when a US trainer is shot by an AFG trainee are horrible. President Trump explained the horrible injuries US servicemen obtain and have to deal with, and how the doctors at Walter Reed do an amazing job trying to put them back to near normal.

But this was the first time that I can recall when President Trump left a press conference that he got applause. That was an accomplishment.

Normally the MSM says something like this, "Trump goes off the rails":

the armor of the RW war machine has a chink in it ...

woe is me.

Trump hands off Syria to Russia ...... Thank you Mr Shitforhair !

 

[Dick Foster]

He's been more presidential than the last several president's we've had. Since at least Reagan. That is if you equate effectiveness with presidential.

Duh, Russia has been in Syria since 1971 partnering with Assad's father Russian naval facility in Tartus - Wikipedia

Obama backs off 'red line' (in 2013)
Timeline: US intervention in Syria's war since 2011
In August 2013, the Syrian government is accused of carrying out a chemical attack near Damascus that killed more than 1,400 people, according to Washington.
Despite having promised to act with force if Syria crossed the chemical weapons "red line", Obama at the last minute pulls back from punitive strikes on regime infrastructure.
Instead, on September 14, he agrees to a deal with Moscow - Assad's main backer - that is meant to dismantle Syria's chemical weapons arsenal.

Russia has been helping Assad in the civil war since 2015, on Obama's watch
Russia's military action in Syria – timeline

2017 Shayrat missile strike - Wikipedia Trump attacks Assad's air base
On the morning of 7 April 2017,[1][8] the United States launched 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles from the Mediterranean Sea into Syria, aimed at Shayrat Airbase controlled by the Syrian government.[8][9][10] The strike was executed under responsibility of U.S. President Donald Trump, as a direct response to the Khan Shaykhun chemical attack that occurred on 4 April


2018 missile strikes against Syria - Wikipedia Trump attacks additional targets after chemical attack
On 14 April 2018, beginning at 04:00 Syrian time (UTC+3),[5] the United States, France, and the United Kingdom carried out a series of military strikes involving aircraft and ship-based missiles against multiple government sites in Syria during the Syrian Civil War.[6][7] They said it was in response to the Douma chemical attack against civilians on 7 April, which they attributed to the Syrian government.[8][9] The Syrian government denied involvement in the Douma attacks[9] and called the airstrikes a violation of international law.[8]


So Trump defeated ISIS, Trump stopped Assad's chemical attacks. Obama got swindled by Russia, probably on purpose, "being flexible"

These war mongering pukes in congress are free to travel to Syria, man a post with a weapon and defend the Kurds. What, none of them want to? Shocker.

You gotta be a hypnotized swamp rat to want THE DONALD to be Presidential!!!

No he didn't act presidential. He acted like a human being. He's yet to act like a president.

 

[sparky]

I answered NO to the question, but that's what I LIKE about Trump. He doesn't think or act like a slimy politician, because he's NOT one! His demeanor has been a fresh air to the stale, dull, usually boring personalities that have occupied the White House and led our country.

The previous two war loving presidents weren't capable of cleaning an outhouse.

Saying The Orange Buffoon is presidential is like accusing Bill O'Reilly of being intelligent.

The United States abandonment of Afghanistan after the Soviet Union left in 1989 led to the events of September 11, 2001 when 3,000 U.S. civilians were murdered by terrorist trained and supported from Afghanistan between 8:45 AM and 10:50 AM. That's right, 3,000 U.S. civilians murdered in under two hours. Had they struck the towers in the late afternoon just before the end of the work day, 20,000 people could have been killed in less than two hours.

The United States is not choosing to be involved in "permanent wars". The United States and its security is under attack constantly. The more engaged the United States is overseas with defending itself, its interest, and helping maintain order, the less it will bleed on the battlefield and the less chance there is for incidents like the events of September 11, 2001 happening.

The injuries and death policemen and firemen suffer during their jobs are not because they choose to do their jobs, but because crime and the danger of fire or other types of disaster are a constant threat. The same can be said of the U.S. military defending the United States and its interest overseas from Rogue States or non-state terrorist forces. You don't prevent loss of life, or injury by pretending the problem does not exist. Failing to deal with Rogue States, non-state terrorist forces, criminal elements in your local community, or the building that is on fire two miles from where you live, is not the way to save lives and prevent injury. Such inaction makes the loss of life and injury more likely and far more severe.

Such stupidity is what allowed Hitler to take over most of Europe before anyone was able to put together a viable challenge to him. Oh, and several of those congressman have already served in the military, several in combat in both Iraq and Afghanistan.

The only question now is how many AMERICAN Civilians will have to die because ISIS was allowed to revive itself because of TRUMPS stupidity in pulling out the small American force of 2,000 troops, that was helping the Kurds chase down the last ISIS members, preventing Turkey from invading the area, and keeping the Syrian and the Russians away as well.

Russia would start WWIII to keep Syria their ally and not lose their warm water port and naval facility they have had since the 70s there. Do you think we should fight WWIII over Syria just to try and oust Russia from their 40 year perch there?

Is this the same press conference where he justified his actions by pointing out that the Kurds did not help us at Normandy?
