Why not just select your targets. Plan your strikes and call the Russians a couple hours prior instructing them to remove personnel? You know like last time?

Tweeting this stuff just makes it a major cluster****. Now Assad asks his ally for support since its been telegraphed and Russia is lumped in with them. Russia now has to defend an ally. They also have to deal with a taunting tweeting administration across the pond while demonstrating their own strength.

Pointless escalation at every turn brought to you by the deal maker.
He never said exactly when or where, just "beware somethings coming".
No date no airfield. Get used to winning.

No need to pony up to Russia they will take care of the terrorist that attack them and the new Trump administration will concentrate on ISIS destruction
as they see fit. Just keep Obama away from the button for 29 more days.
As you may be willing to accept or not, his last end game of Marshall Law will hopefully pass into the sunset. MAGA
Trump on the issue is morphing into what I want and not what you wanted.

The problem is the way he goes about it... the idiotic tweets that back people into corners unnecessarily.

It's idiotic, so yes, it fits nicely.

It's also pointless. Weren't people on here talking about how Hillary was going to get us into a war with Russia so we needed Trump?

No, wrong again. That's not what we said about Hillary and Russia during the campaign.

We, specifically me for the most part, spoke of Hillary committing treason by illegally selling US uranium to Russia for campaign money funnelled to the Clinton Foundation.

It was you that told us that I/we didn't know the meaning of the word treason.

When in doubt change the subject.

It was Greyfox and CH who expressed that opinion.

What we said in a nutshell was both her and Obama proved to be incompetent in foreign policy, specifically you and I covered that well.

They may still do it. They left Trump with a terrible situation in Syria. Drawing fake red lines, lying and tap dancing around the problem gets nothing done. They kicked the can, played to their code pink base and now Trumps in deep shit trying to deal with it

The situation was bad to start with but these botches are Trumps. Russia was our ally in Syria and now relations have never been worse. Last week we were withdrawing from the region... this week we're threatening a shooting war.

What he inherited wasn't great but he constantly demonstrates via Twitter he doesn't have the mental acuity to deal with this stuff.

When he took office he made the statement these type of acts weren't going to be tolerated and then he followed through and set a precedent. I gave him for that.

The precedent still exists and he doesn't need to explain shit to anyone to launch another strike. Quick call to vlad saying "your boy effed up... you know what this means..." and bomb away. Instead he demonstrates childishness by letting the comments of some low level Russian ambassador put him on tilt.

Now Russia is forced to decide how to respond to what is essentially American belligerence... it would be one thing if this was all done back-channel but no... it's thrown up on Twitter.

Russia has allies and security arrangements with those allies. It has to demonstrate it will honor it's commitments and our President took to Twitter challenging them to do just that.

It's stupid and serves no purpose.

Putin will probably just remove the Ambassador because he has more sense than Trump.

Give me a break! The chemical attack happened after he suggested withdrawal.

Russian ships are fleeing the ports........that’s worth the price of admission

Russia was never our ally. Russia does what is good for Russia and no one else.

Always been that way, always will be that way.

Stalin played Roosevelt like a fiddle in WWII - and turned out to be worse than Hitler.

You should quit while your ahead, I think President Trump is quite new to this thing called killing and signaling with a heavy heart that he has to respond. My advice to you is go back to your bathroom to squat instead of complaining what you do not like. A few years ago you agreed with me Hillary and Obama made many a bad move removing missile battery's in Poland the red lines and a few more and now this President has to please you? Respect gets respect, act like the past and watch knee pads being in the Christmas stockings for the holidays.
