President Trump to Make Statement About Syria

How is Trump tougher?

I won't say "tougher" but he has the courage to make military decisions promptly and confidently that Obama totally lacked. Obama's warnings and threats were never taken too seriously, because they (the Russians, Iranians, North Koreans and ISIS) knew the man.

Assad crossed a well demarcated line; he got thumped once and tonight he is getting hammered. Trump is not Obama.
 
No I'm just pointing out what you said and how Trump bombing Syria now, doesn't make him any more or less tougher than Obama.

But let's remember Trump said it was a bad idea to bomb Syria (when it was Obama in power)
He also said he wouldn't tell the world if he was bombing Syria if that was necessary.

Obama wimped out. Trump didn't...twice.

When talking about Trump's words from five years ago, context is important. Your lack of consideration of context results in your mention of those words dismissable. Please consider them dismissed.

Trump made his announcement and timed it perfectly with the actual attack. Does that give you heartburn?
 
so, you are comparing the use of chlorine gas that killed 40 Syrians to 9/11 that killed over 500,000?

wow; WTF can I get what you're smoking ?

I have no idea what you are talking about.

I made no mention of 9/11. In fact, I'm doing my best to limit my comments to this thread's topic.

btw, 9/11 didn't kill "over 500,000".
 
I suppose the inspectors who were going in to establish who committed the gassing of civilians will have to cancel tomorrow's visit till the bombing of civilians is finished.
 
And all we heard for 8 years about Obama was everything it Bush's fault.Hahaha

And you accepted every last bit of that criticism, did you?

Ok so what was the context Mr. Trump translator?

I also don't like how you are assuming that bombing people is considered to be tough. It's also obvious that Trump did not react right away. As the US-UN report says Syria has constantly been using chemical weapons at least 50 times during the war. Trump has only struck them twice.

I think we are making a mistake attacking Syria over this
