a real man in the White House.


Tpap, please, let's put political viewpoints aside and agree that a guy who can't condemn nazis, the kkk and white nationalists until forced to from both sides of the aisle is less than "a man".

Thank you.

If stopping NK is a win then Trump has a while to go before he catches Obama's record.

How many threats did we endure when Obama was president? 10, 20...50?

China said they would back NK if we attacked first, they also said if NK attacks first, they are on their own.

Sorry Tpap, your Trump boner is unjustified.

While we are at it, do you agree with Trump's sympathy toward Nazis?

North Korea warned Sunday that the upcoming US-South Korea military exercises are "reckless behavior driving the situation into the uncontrollable phase of a nuclear war."

That's great! So North Korea agreed to dismantle the weapons program and let us in to inspect them? Like President Obama was able to do with Iran?

Trump is a true 'winner' continuing to back other true 'winners' - like the 'alt right' 'et al'.. Looks like you got a bunch of real 'winners' there - don't dare let him go!! He's your man!!

All the bs he has done so far - with the exception of the stolen seat on the SC - can just as easily be undone with a pen by his successor,..  

That's a true 'success story' right there! Maybe not for the g

op though....

Trump's new Afghanistan policy = meh

Pretty much a re-hashed version of previous administration's new Afghanistan policies. 

But I'm sure it will lead to more winning...

I didn't hear a new strategy, sounded like more of the same in spite of candidate trump's isolationist fantasies.

Oh, and let's rile up Pakistan and India.

The "new" part is that he isn't going to share any details and he won't set a schedule.

So, it is basically the same considering we obviously haven't paid much attention to a schedule and the details have always been pretty soft. 

Our 6 month, $63B endeavor is now approaching 17 years and $1T.

What happens when we "win"?

Will the tribes come together and form a unified Afghanistan government?

If not, who will enforce the peace?

Let me take a guess...............the USA.

Looks like when Trump feels down he has a campaign rally to brighten his mood.

Last night Free Range Trump showed up and really didn't help himself at all.  Should have stuck with Teleprompter Trump, at least he makes sense when someone else writes his stuff. 

Winning - it is a matter of definition, apparently.  To me it sounded a lot like venting and whining.

Didn't Trump say he wanted us out of Afghanistan while he was on the campaign trail?

"I know more than the generals!"

"Afghanistan is dangerous". Trump said. Then left it off his Muslim banned list.

He used to know more than the generals. But the generals learned so much in the past six months that now trump believes that they have a military strategy better than anything ever before, it's amazing believe me... trump can't talk about it because he doesn't understand it and the people smarter than trump are saying that he's playing his cards close to the vest, which flatters him, conceals his persistent ignorance and allows the US to actually consider strategies, tactics and goals. It's not winning because of trump, it's surviving despite trump.
