poke the bear one too many times, and then look out.

Trump has no clue what's going on here, with no way to predict the future, or a way out.

Why did he decide, just today, to pause for 5 days? Did he buy a vowel?

Is it OK that Krasnov is postponing committing war crimes? Is that the position of many here at DU?

Shouldn't our posts be about blowing up nuclear power plants is a war crime and our military should refuse to obey this illegal order.

Where are the freaking articles that say it is not an American ideal to get what our country wants by committing war crimes?

Where are the articles that have this headline:

KRASNOV WANTS THE US MILITARY TO COMMIT WAR CRIMES BY BLOWING UP NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS.

Shouldn't we be debating if our military would obey such an illegal order.

Damn right I am pissed, and it has to with the definition of right wing talking points.
