man I can't believe Trump was so smart that he trolled Obama 4 years beforehand about not launching attacks against Syria so that he could launch missiles against Syria and surprise the poo poo out of everyone once he was president amazing how he compromised himself with the piss tape so he could gain the trust of Putin, to turn on him and reveal he doesn't care if the piss tape is released 2,069th dimensional chess

It's like when Michael Scott declares bankruptcy. You have to literally burst into a room and DECLARE BANKRUPTCY. Otherwise it's not real. That's how it works for war.

Pretty much any/every president can gently caress about for 60 days while congress mucks about deciding if they'd like to declare war. We haven't declared a war since WWII. And it hasn't had a new "authorization" for military force since 2003 IIRC. Maybe Libya.

Lastgirl posted:I mean, hasn't the US been conducting Airstrikes for a while? yes, under the auspices of Bush's 2001 AUMF, (a) IN GENERAL- That the President is authorized to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons. which is pretty vague and wide reaching, but i dont think it would cover syrian airfields.

I can't believe anyone actually believed Trump had a coherent anything. Did they not hear him speak? Then again Glenn Greenwald is a noted idiot.

Another abridged thing heard on MSNBC: Seeing the dead kids on TV had a huge effect on Trump's decision according to white house aids. So things aren't real until he sees them on TV. Also, we didn't hit the runways at the airport, just structures and facilities there.
