Nothing is being done without approval somewhere. I don't think it is Trump or Putin.

I just can't get the feeling that PNAC's Rebuilding America's Defenses is still playing out.

The End game has not changed. Empire.

I know...tin foil firmly seated this morning...but I had to put the foil from the baking of cookies somewhere...

Trump is like Slim Pickens, riding the warhead into oblivion. Let's hope he doesn't take us all with him.

Right on.

I have always been against his agenda but he is really starting to scare the hell out of me.

Poor Bear Creek residents. Poor all of us with this guy in the White House.

He saw pictures on tv. He wanted to respond. That's it. No additional thought involved.

So much strategic thinking is attributed to this guy, and I don't think it's warranted.

I think he is motivated a) by what feels good to himself at the moment, and b) to be "better" than Obama. I think he's got a long-standing grudge against the former POTUS.

His fan base sometimes paints him as a strategic mastermind - when he clearly isn't.

Similarly, the folks on our side sometimes seem to paint him as some kind of evil genius - and that isn't the case either.

He is a really simple guy - intellectually speaking.

He-man woman haters' club. Tough guy cravings. Adulation. Play to a crowd. Appeal to control-freak religionists.

Immediate gratification.

45 has finally provided putey with some live US cruise missiles to test their anti-missile platform.
Whether they only lit them up or actually took one out, it stands to reason.

more info on earlier reports of putey's syria defense program:
