I would think that a politically motivated military raid for bragging purposes would have been conducted in Syria. The only country that Trump identified in the EO. That's the country that Trump could really pound his chest over. Yemen, is like picking on the short kid.

Yet that short kid put up a good fight.....The commandos going into the raid knew they were screwed that should never be. In future missions let's hope our Navy Seals are more prepared for the giant or that short kid.

Peace

I don't disagree, like I said seems like some usual circumstances surrounded the raid.

Do you think military personnel in general support Trump?

Fitting since we have a middle school aged bully for a president. Trump is about making himself feel one way or another, and less about how his actions come across to others. He doesn't really care about other people or their perceptions. You're thinking he has some strategy, but narcissists don't need a strategy.

Let's back up here...
I didn't say he has strategy, the redditor did, I was responding to a post about a politically motivated theory from reddit.
Pay attention.

Military personnel don't question those who are in command, they will follow orders and support those who are in charge the commander in chief etc. All they ask is to be given the proper equipment, weaponry and intelligence to complete their mission. Without those essentials going into a foreign country on these missions lessons their success rate considerably.

I asked in general in your opinion does military personnel support trump?
You're not obligated to answer, it wasn't a gotcha question.

Yes I can certainly see Trump running a raid in a vassal state of Russia... seems likely that Putin would be all good with that.

I didn't take it to be a gotcha question, I was just giving an overall analysis. The answer is yes absolutely.

So, this guy and his tiny penis/hands complex are going to start costing a lot of young people their lives sooner rather than later.

This is all beyond insane. If people thought Obama apologizing for Bush was bad, they really won't like what's coming from the next president.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, won't get fooled again. Now watch me hit this tee shot.

I hated that man with a passion, but I preferred him over the orange idiot.

Trump makes Bush Jr. look like a fucking hippy genius, lol.

Haha. Fuck this shit. What have you done.

Donald Trump’s administration is reportedly pushing to erase neo-Nazis and white supremacists from the US government’s counter-extremism programme by moving it to focus exclusively on Islamist terrorism.

American officials briefed on the proposed changes told Reuters the Countering Violent Extremism (DVE) initiative could be renamed to “Countering Radical Islamic Extremism”.

The reclassification would remove its work combating far-right attacks and mass shootings, such as the massacre of black churchgoers in Charleston, which are rarely classified as terrorism by American authorities.

Yeah, same here. You all know I was extremely concerned about what he might do if he won .... I still had no idea things would be this bad. I mean, this is all CRAZY. I hope Americans don't collectively try to bury their heads in the sand as a kind of coping mechanism, because I'm pretty sure that is what allows dictatorships to rise.

49% of the Country agrees with his "Muslim Ban". It's happening.

I'm only interested in the entertainment value, I can't tell you how many times I laugh out loud after reading his tweets. Last night I was flipping thru the various networks cracking up, you would have thought I was watching Steven Wright's greatest hits.
Don't panic thou, the US dollar is still world currency, we still control NATO and the UN, we still have global intelligence and military presence, the Fed is still printing dollars faster than trumps tweeting and the sky hasn't fallen.

You just listed things that we really need to be worried about with Trump in charge.... but maybe you were being facetious.
