Re: POTUS: Definitely Needs Anger Management

Guess who just happens to be in the neighborhood as well...

Russian President Vladimir Putin has met his Syrian counterpart Bashar al-Assad during a rare visit to the Syrian capital as the prospect of war between Iran and the United States loomed over the region.

The two leaders listened to a military presentation by the commander of Russian forces in Syria, the Syrian presidency said in a statement along with a picture of the two leaders shaking hands.

Putin extended his greetings to Russian forces for Orthodox Christmas which is celebrated on January 7.

He also said enormous progress had been made in the Syrian conflict, Russian news agencies reported.
The visit came amid heightened tensions between Iran and the US, following the killing of a top Iranian general in a US air raid in neighbouring Iraq.

US troops are based in eastern Syria, making the country a potential site of conflict with Iran.
Putin is expected in Turkey on Wednesday to inaugurate a gas pipeline with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

If Desert Storm was the CNN War, the second Gulf War was Al Jazeera's, then FOX And Friends is driving this war.

From WaPo:

WASHINGTON — Moments after a military base was struck by missiles in Iraq, Saeed Jalili, a representative to Iran’s supreme leader, tweeted a photo of Iran’s flag.

The tweet appears to be mimicking President Trump, who tweeted a photo of the American flag following reports that an airstrike had killed Soleimani.
 
Re: POTUS: Definitely Needs Anger Management

Some administration officials believe Iran intentionally missed areas with Americans

Of course if that's true (it almost certainly is) trump spins it one of two ways; Either the Iranian military is incapable of accurately aiming their missiles, or more likely, they were too scared to actually harm Americans. My guess is the near misses were intentional, and designed to rattle cages, but keep down the likelihood of an overreaction by trump that would have needlessly harmed Iranian civilians from collateral damage. Islamic terrorists showing foresight and restraint while our president does nothing but show his usual bluster. Who would have figured? Oh wait....

Maybe they had some kind of James Bond brain implant that didn't allow him to go off script? Another idiot President declaring victory!1!11!! and complete defeat when nothing is resolved. If you are not a thinking human being he sounded great. If you have any knowledge of the international scene then he sounded like an elementary school kid trying to pretend things were awesome.

No mention of a plan or anything pertinent.

He’s basically falling asleep while speaking.
