I hope it does catch on.

#OperationPothole" - Exactly what it was.

Who knows what this idiot will do next.

It was all over Twitter, so no need to tip off anyone. The whole world knew what time they planned to fire the missiles so Trump would have better T-V ratings.

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. The runways are still intact! 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.

but 140 characters + her commentary wouldn't allow it, so, "OPERATION POTHOLE" it is!!

She really kicked ass on the trumprussia research today, as L. Coyote says - I don't understand half of what the she's talking about, but I just read all her tweets and just hope someday I'll catch on!
