    Someone please explain to me why the only military in the war room is the person watching the door?

    Funny indeed but that isn't the "war room" as I assume you are aware. That is Mar-a-lago during/after the China meeting. The military people are on video conference from the Pentagon of course. But please...continue.

    The funniest thing about this meme is that the USA elected this.
    Or the most depressing, lol.
    I find the meme hilarious, but it is also the reason I don't even want to say much about this Syria bombing at this point. It's not like I'm pro-Assad, and if (and that's a HUGE if!) Assad actually and mysteriously started using chemical weapons against Syrians, and if I didn't think this was just a play to counter Trump's plummeting approval ratings and the whole Russia scandal, I may not have been overly dismayed about an American reaction... but with this bunch of fucking idiots at the helm, I will be dismayed about ANY military force they use because I don't think they know what the fuck they're doing, be they right or wrong about the motivations. Just the delicate foreign diplomacy issues that this involves is way to much for this band of nitwits and loony-toons. It may as well be the cast of Saved By The Bell sitting there drawing up military strategies.

    I'm not sure if you can call, say, 80% destruction a wasted effort, but I figure if you're going to use that many missiles and piss off some scary governments, you should probably at least do the job 100%. Perhaps they should have gone for the "there used to be an air force base where that crater is" tactic.

    The more I look at that photo the more disturbing it becomes..... So many fucking men. You'd think men out number women in America 10 to 1.

    Only if you are one of those must have women in the room at all costs no matter what people.

    That's reverse sexism no?
    Racism?

    Would you guys make up your minds already.

    At all costs no matter what people?? What in the fuck is that supposed to mean? You think it's not realistic or advisable to find some women who are more qualified than the men in that photo?! I gotta say, even though you're a troll, comments like that really piss me off. That argument has got to be one of the stupidest ones out there.

    You deserve to be in a room full of men with an attitude like that.
    Good on you.

    If a man were to say that about a woman because of comments she made he would be considered a chauvinist pig, filth and just mean.

    But that's not what's happening here is it?

    This is one man speaking to what I assume is another man.

    But go on with your false equivalencies, again.....

    So that woman in the meme...
    Is she feisty?
    or is she smart for being on team President Trump?
