Trump the Hero

Without a plan, without clear or complete thinking, without a way forward --- Trump plunged the US into a shooting war "against" Syria. We were already there, with "military advisers," technology, and planes -- fighting on behalf of the Syrian rebels (and against ISIS). But now we have added another "front" to our war and two more (at least) enemies -- Russia, Assad's Syria, and perhaps Iran.

Trump is a "disruptor" -- but he is not a "fixer." He often walks away and leaves a bad situation to get worse over time. Hopefully he has not done it "again" in Syria -- you can't just declare "bankruptcy" and run away this time -- it's on you.  Resist, resist, resist.
