Its 9:00 in L.A. Did

anyone watch Rachel tonight?
Incredible... Just tore Trump apart.

she compared Last Nights Trump Situation Room to The Obama’s Situation Room when we nailed Bin Laden .
My God, it was great and almost frightening.. So many things wrong with Trump’s Room that you can’t even begin.. Besides the fact that Trump criticized the hell out of Obama’s attack on Assad’s units 2 yrs ago when the chemical attack was way worse than the attack Trump was Responded to last night.

Bottom line? as soon as the stupid MSM figures out how totally unprepared and not well thought out Trump’s move from Mar Lago was last night... It will support the concept that Trump is a total idiot.. Unprepared for this type of event.

If anyone out there can put up Rachel Show... Please do so.
I can’t find it.

1. Yes Rachel's opening segment was awesome but I'm not a fan of Richard Engel.

I know he shows up at every hot spot on the earth within minutes of the event. So quick on the spot I once thought he was an undercover terrorist.

If I get home late, I haven't missed her! And I'd rather poke myself in the eye with a sharp stick than watch prison. Though I do kinda miss Rachel announcing that we're going to prison...

9. Trump's strike was either shocking incompetence or pointless kabuki theater.

Trump gave his BFF Putin a heads up before the strike so Putin could move his planes and troops.

Of course, Putin then ovbiously tipped off Assad since Assad moved his planes too. 

And Trump didn't even take out the airfield. As I found out tonight on Rachel's show, the runways are still in tact! Assad showed his planes taking off from that airfield today. Nor did Trump take out the chemical weapons depot. The strike pretty much did nothing to stop Assad.

David Corn, Rick Wilson, and Indira Lahkshmanan on. Corn said 45's policy was based on impulse. Wilson agreed, saying 45 is incapable of developing policy or core philosophy because he has the attention span of a gnat on meth. columnist Lakshmanan was more reserved, but was on board about lack of policy, needing Congress to approve anything else, etc.

is stuck under his nose. Most of the options now on the table were developed during the Obama administration and left there for future use. Congress would not give Obama the power he needed and he knew they wouldn't. That is why he asked for it. He was always a head of the game. Iranians are smarter than both Russia and Syria. They know they have the fire power without having nukes. They remain under the radar with surrogates acting on their behalf. Wait for it.
