It's the same thing over from Taft's reelection

Enlighten me

So Teddy Roosevelt was elected, and he was a total heroic hardass (continued American Imperialism), really similar to Trump in his distain for the establishment. After he finished his 1st term, he said he wouldn't run again and so his best friend, Taft, got the nomination and became president.

Anyway, Roosevelt got really mad at Taft for not following his legacy enough, so Roosevelt fired up his base to vote for him again, and he ran on a new Party because the GOP gave Taft the nomination again. So Republicans split their votes and one of the most Progressive/destructive presidents won the presidency, Wilson (Democrat), and he started a lot of the problems we have today, like the Federal Reserve.

So the point is, Trump is like TR, he's not going too back down, even if you take away the nomination from him, you're not only going to anger a lot of supporters, but then establishment Republicans will use this as a chance to run a moderate candidate, since the far Right Trump base is fighting amongst ourselves, we'll lose electoral power. Any time you split your votes, you lose. And that's what is most likely going to happen if you try and primary Trump, because he's not going to simply walk away.

@Marini

It's happened before, and it was disastrous for the Republicans, if we do it again it'll be even worse because the person the Democrats run is going to be extremely left wing.

So

Probably no more attacks

US is saying mission accomplish, etc etc

Well, they destroyed chemical plants and that's it.

So the mission might actually be accomplished.

"plants"""

Welp

All 210 cruise missiles hit their target

Without interception

oof

at least he's pretty much won the war now

Russian military sad

@zakattack04 @FLanon This is why the logic of the "symbolic strike" fails. If you bomb a country and you don't do any damage, then why do it? It makes you look dumb to everyone. It's an obviously strategically incoherent move and is indicative of a schizophrenic White House. Just say no to neocons.

I don't think you heard the article right

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 they hit chemical factories

That was the strategic importance

Removing the industrial suppliers for the Syrians

that's symbolic

The syrian government launched missiles against the american strike, but missed.

No it's not

That was the article.

That's strategic dude lol

unless Trump initiates a ground invasion, it will have no meaningful impact

3 chemical sites were destroyed.

It's targeting the supporting structures of the war effort

Infrastructure, industry

That's what this was

It want symbolic, it was a strategic surgical strike

Lol what

Drumpf fell for a false flag

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 did we need to initiate a ground invasion into Japan?

no chemical weapons were used

We used fire bombing and conventional bombing to bring them to their knees

The nukes were symbolic

Anyways, we all know the real reasoning for the strike, this is all really for a message for North Korea.
