Presidents are fully briefed in all the details pertaining to a military strike long before any decision making is done. Either tRump never intended to do the strike, or the strike was stopped for another reason as yet unknown. The Commander in Cheap, being the opportunist he is now is basking in a warm afterglow of praise for averting a war. Mrs. MC

Same here.

Considering the reaction to the Access Hollywood tape, I doubt the base would even blink at this alleged tape. The simple dismissal as "Fake News" seems to be step further than even a blanket absolution. I truly believe that there are segments where Trump can do know wrong because: 1. he is a strategic genius that does not make mistakes (QAnon crowd); 2. he is some divine leader whose decisions are guided by divine providence (Evangelicals); 3. he is the victim of some Machiavellian plot to bring about the destruction of the USA (pretty much everyone left).
