Hope the president stands his ground here:
Donald Trump Is Pressed to Send More Troops to Afghanistan
By Dion Nissenbaum
Updated Aug. 3, 2017 8:29 p.m. ET
WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump’s top national-security advisers are searching for a way to overcome the commander-in-chief’s reluctance to send thousands more troops to Afghanistan as divisions on the National Security Council complicate strategy for the 16-year-old war, officials said.
The president’s reluctance to embrace an open-ended commitment has resurrected discussion of other options, including proposals to scale back the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan or to hire private contractors to play a bigger role. Top Trump administration officials met to discuss the options Thursday after Mr. Trump asked his team for alternatives, according to current and former Trump administration officials.
The search for a strategy for Afghanistan comes amid upheaval at the NSC following the removal of three staff members by H.R. McMaster, the national security adviser. The three officials were hired by his predecessor, Mike Flynn, before he was forced to resign after 24 days in the post.
The removals were welcomed by supporters of Mr. McMaster who saw the three as disruptive in pushing some unorthodox ideas backed by the president. The moves were decried by allies of the three as a purge designed to rid the team of Trump loyalists.You're actually pretty funny when you aren't being a complete a-hole....so basically like 5% of the time. --Art Vandelay

(Of course, I recognize that President Obama rode a wave of anti-interventionism/anti-war into the WH and then promptly did fuck-all about it.)

Originally posted by creekster View PostFrank, this is an incredibly patronizing question/comment.
But, since you have raised this issue numerous times, I would like to ask you to tell me, using only primary sources (IOW testimony from congressional hearings or final reports from investigations, etc., as opposed to reports of such things) what, exactly, the Russians did in the election. Given that you hold yourself out as being better informed than most, what precisely do the primary sources show? Becasue apart from this, the rhetoric on the issue is so politicized on both sides that it has virtually no value. My impression is, however, that precious few specifics are known and most of the commentary is specualtion, hyperbole or both. My mind is open but I want actual information, not commentary full of guesses masquerading as reporting.
Would you or Trump supporters care? I say most would not care even if it's proven to be true.

Trump is a buffoon. I hate it every time I see him representing the country. That said, he won the election and I udnerstand why so may people voted for him. And all the wishifying about russia will not change that. If we worried more about what the country needs rather than how he won, we would all be a lot better off.PLesa excuse the tpyos.
