I do not know for sure whether or not it was a good idea to carry out this assassination. But I do know that since it is a Trump move every Democrat will be going after him. If he had the ability to take him out and didn't he is 'soft on terror'. If he does take him out he is provoking the terrorists into attacking us....... Kenarman hits the nail on the head...... since it's Trump whatever tack he took must be wrong.........


It wasn't an either/or. Trump could have done something other than an assassination and not inflamed much of the middle east.

Or possibly embolden them to do even more attacks. Neither of us will ever know which statement is true.

Would we have killed Soemeni if Iran had nukes ready to launch or wmd?

Think Kim will give up his nukes now?

That is the million dollar question isn't it. What will happen when some 2nd or 3rd tier country has nuclear weapons and they feel some other country has 'dissed' them. It is likely to be a pretty ugly mess. The good thing is everybody will no longer think that climate change is the biggest problem in the world.

How could any of us know for
sure, we have about 10% of
the facts. The whole point
of having a president is
trusting his judgement.
It's not for us to second
guess his every move when
we don't even know what's
really going on.

When Obama sent over
500 killing drones into
Syria I didn't jump up and
down and scream. I trusted
he knew what he was doing.
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Trump administration trying to cover up how much Trump is spending on travel until after 2020.

Preliminary leak says while Obama spent 96 million in 8 years, Trump has 13 million in just one month.

I remember all the OUTRAGE on Fox over how much Obama's Christmas trips to Hawaii cost. *crickets* when Donny spends that much in a weekend of golfing.

But...he donates his 400k annual salary.

Let's see, he'd have to serve 33 years and donate his salary each year to pay for that one month of travel?

Gee...what a deal for the American taxpayer.
