Trumps folly

What is the point of escalating in Afghanistan?

Will dump put the cost of this on the credit card ala Bush?

I think he is purposely causing such an overuse of our hardware, that if we needed it to really have a war with Russia, most of it would be down for repairs. Just ask the Marine Air wing. They stand at about 40% op ready.

Dump is doing his best to destroy America and I will be go to hell if he thinks we will allow that.

America, a new banana republic under a dictator.

I'm glad to be on the short side of life.

Resist!

Period.

So while trump himself cant think one move ahead let alone many, he will do what benefits Putin in every situation.

Remember he thanked Putin for firing our embassy people, this alone is cause for impeachment. Just that.

If any democrat alive, said anything remotely like this, they would be physically hunted down by trump supporters and dealt with.

Trump does it and they love it.

Sadly, this is proof that we are beyond repair as a nation.

slap in the face to Bannon who was for withdrawing. So, boy and girls, what's it going to cost us in blood and treasure just so a pissed off Trump can get even with Bannon for publishing a lot of negative news stories on Breitbart immediately after his return?
