    You can't be serious right? Perhaps you are being sarcastic. Regardless sir it's called humor.

    Cool the biggest non-nuclear bomb. Trump still has tiny hands. They can probably claim to have killed several of the number two guys in the Taliban.

    Does Trump have stock in the company that makes that weapon?

    Guys,

    The bombs have already been paid for and are designed to be used. We've already built way more than we can use. Arguing about the cost is far from the point. The question is if it was effective in completing the objective and what the collateral damage was. We've been bombing **** for years but this represents an escalation from smaller more targeted weapons. There is a possibility that this was a great target and effective blow to ISIL.


    EDIT:
    Trump said he didn't authorize this strike? He gives someone in the military the authority to drop a huge ****ing bomb like this? That is ****ed up.

    WTF? Which "liberal white knights" are itching, much less blood thirsty, for war? And what the Hell did the Democratic Party have to do with this? Let's see... The Republican Party has the House, they have the Senate, and they have a chump in the White House that is supposed to be Commander in Chief of our armed forces. The Democratic Party had nothing to do with this. So if you are shouting a "**** you!" at the Democratic Party for what trump is doing, here's one right back at you. And try educating yourself.

    A great story generator.

    I wonder what the Vietcong thought about the most unprecedented amount of non-nuclear bombs dropped on them and their network of tunnels.

    Seems like a effective use of the weapon considering the mountains helped contain it. They said that area had between 600-800 active members but this strike only got 36. Still, collapsing their cave networks helps.

    The problem to me is that Trump has removed himself from oversight.

    Remember we just hit Syria with 59,000 pounds of freedom so I wouldn't overreact too much to the media hype of this particular weapon.
