Trump Bests the Geniuses in Syria
Kenneth R. Timmerman has this to begin his post at FrontPageMag.com:
"As one Democrat sputtered on national radio, 'The Secretary of Defense just resigned, we’re pulling out of Syria. WHAT’S GOING ON?'
What’s going on is that Donald Trump, maligned by Democrats and the media as a petulant dummy, and worse, is doing what they could never imagine: he is making good on a campaign promise.
He campaigned on waging a real war to defeat ISIS, rather than tiptoeing around the battle in Syria and Iraq as Obama had done.
He committed U.S. troops, U.S. aircraft, and U.S. intelligence and diplomatic assets to the war, while making good on yet another campaign promise by having local forces who bore the brunt of ISIS brutality form the tip of the spear. That was work the geniuses could never imagine. Only a 'dummy' could have done it. A 'dummy' who campaigned on telling the truth to the American people, and who has spent the past two years making good on his campaign promises.
The campaign to smash the ISIS caliphate in Iraq ended in victory more than a year ago."
