Absurd, laughably so. Trump's alienated our allies and kissed Putin's ass at every opportunity.

Obama couldn't get a vote....thanks GOPERS....to follow up on his cruise missile attacks on Syria..


Quote:
On Aug. 31, 2013, President Obama said he had authorized the use of force against Syria, but would seek authorization from Congress before carrying out the strikes. Mr. Trump tweeted several times after the sarin attack, blasting the Obama administration. One such tweet, sent around 7 p.m. ET on Aug. 30, 2013 said, “The President must get Congressional approval before attacking Syria-big mistake if he does not!”

Obama’s authorization request was in the form of Senate Joint Resolution 21. The bill never received a floor vote and U.S. took the diplomatic route instead, negotiating with Russia on a deal to call for destroying Syria’s chemical weapons by June 2014.

Syria’s Bashar al-Assad agreed to do so, and the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons told the BBC in June 2014 that the country had finished shipping its stockpile out of the country. The Department of Defense states those weapons were neutralized in international waters on board the MV Cape Ray.

In 2013, Sen. Cruz penned an opinion column in the Washington Post titled, “Ted Cruz: Why I’ll vote no on Syria strike.” In the column, he said he would not vote on a Syria strike because Assad’s actions were “not a direct threat to U.S. national security,” those who oppose Assad are not necessarily better, and “the potential for escalation is immense.”




Quote:
At the end of the day, Trump has done a phenomenal job at undoing the damage to our foreign policy that Obama’s “leading from behind” caused, and thus, we should all be thankful for his leadership.
