    This seems like a measured response that other Presidents would have done. I have no issue with the strike itself. The man leading the charge is inexperienced and incompetent sure, but in a vacuum this is all right.

    If the last president had done it, this president wouldn't be having to do it.

    I have mixed feelings about this.

    It isn't helped by the fact that the President clearly has no convictions or compass guiding him in these decisions:

    hmm maybe just a really harsh warning by the US to Syria to not use chemical gas. I doubt anything comes from this.

    This is what a real president supposed to do, unlike the big ears coward fukker that stood by and let babies choked in their own vomit and died a horrible death.
    Mr Trump " No child of God has to die like this ". Bless you Mr Trump, I will pray real hard tonight so God can guide your hands to do the right thing.

    lol. Napalm is a combination of parts of my name and a nickname I've had for a long time; actually has nothing to do with being a pyro. :cool:

    I like the sentiment, but I also felt some irony hearing "no child of God should have to die like this" from the one who took it upon himself to order the likely deaths of other children of God. Right or wrong, there's irony there.

    I don't know why, but as I read your post in my head, I did so in the voice of Clayton Bigsby.

    Since you keep playing "Revisionist History," care to answer my direct question to you that I've asked for twice?

    What should the US have done in Syria up until now? You keep making it sound like THE foreign policy conundrum of the last few years has an easy solution that President Obama, and scores of lifelong diplomats, somehow missed.

    Looking forward to your insight.

    Wrong again it wasn't the last presidents fault it was congress's fault for not approving military action when asked.

    That's a nice cop out, but given that this president just did something about it without Congress, I'm pretty sure the last president could have.....he just turned b**** when Putin told him to go get his shine box.
