Do you think trump’s actions were part of an administration plan?
Or an impulsive behavior that he justifies by saying he promised to do that and he’s a Promise Keeper.

Frankly, I think it was a stupid decision and he was generally rolled by RE and VP. I also think the RE and VP rolled the previous president.

I think of the ten good things Trump did WRT Syria, which were far better than what BO did there, are mostly unwound by this stupid action. Yet we are currently still in a better position WRT Syria than when BO handed the reigns to DT.

How are we in a better position WRT ISIS?
Will the Kurds once again ally with us against ISIS?
What's the strategy to put down the current resurgence of ISIS?

Or is it don't worry they are 7000 miles away and blah blah will have to deal with them?
