This just in..... the Trump administration is blaming Obama for the chemical attack today in Syria. He also is blaming George Washington for a scarcity of cherry trees on the whitehouse lawn.... :lol: :shock:
So your statement take on it's face seems to say that Trump said Obama is behind these attacks or that Obama ordered these attacks... when digging just a little deeper it was that Trump/White House blamed the Obama Administration policies and do nothing approach towards Syria, well except draw some virtual line in the Sand, as the reason these attacks happened.
Well now the worm has turned.... For eight years and beyond we have had to hear from the right that the economy was all about Obama.... and nothing to do with the Bush policies and administration. Now everything that goes wrong in the world in kind has nothing to do with the old administration.... it's all about Trump. Good luck with that Mr. Trump.
I'm not interested in engaging in the back and forth between Dave and my conservative friends, which is the exact reverse of what we experienced when Obama was president. The more things change, the more they are the same. What interests and concerns me is the challenge to the U.S. leveled by this latest horrible tragedy. There is a clear unreconcilable difference between the U.S. and Russian versions of what happened: Let's see how this plays out.
Trump as usual will say anything to make himself look good and just about anyone else look bad. Here is what he tweeted in September 2013: "Trump criticized Obama’s approach, even though he personally urged his predecessor not to intervene in the Syrian civil war on numerous occasions. “AGAIN, TO OUR VERY FOOLISH LEADER, DO NOT ATTACK SYRIA - IF YOU DO MANY VERY BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN & FROM THAT FIGHT THE U.S. GETS NOTHING!” he tweeted in September 2013. “President Obama, do not attack Syria,” he tweeted days later. “There is no upside and tremendous downside. Save your 'powder' for another (and more important) day!”
So Obama, listening to citizen Trump's tweet decided to turn tail in Syria. Now the Russians sensing complete weakness in Obama moved into Syria. Now the problem is much more complex with Russia involved. Perhaps if our former National Security Adviser spent more time on world threats and less time reading transcripts of eavesdropping on political opponents, our foreign policy might have been competent.
I don't know about you but I find the idea of another country having any sort of purposeful effect on the outcome of our national election process to be a grave danger to our way of government and treasonous by any American citizens found guilty of aiding and abetting such a crime.
First of all, you do know that our administration financially supported the opponents of Netanyahu's administration in the last Israeli election. Apparently Democrats here can meddle in anyone else's elections but are appalled when that happens to them. Second, the only real election that was in any way rigged was the Democratic primaries. To this point, I've seen no evidence that the Russians did anything to effect the outcome in our last election. If there was any attempt to influence the outcome it was the false polls that the media threw at us day after day.
