I would only be surprised if something he did somehow made the world a better place.

I really hate him, but he did stop chemical weapons usage in Syria by blasting an airport as warning…. At least as far as I know

The military took the effort to plan the operation, prepare the battle space, implement procedures, designate all the proper personnel, equip the weapon systems, trained the military operators, developed the intelligence reports, and checked off all the tedious bureaucratic bullshit to prevent legal and international investigations and put that stack on his desk.

All that fat fuck Trump moron did is listen to the 4-star ivy-league college educated general summarizing the request to him like he would to a toddler while Trump stuffed his fat fuck face with McDonald's and signed the paper to allow it.

Damn, that’s a good summary. I guess I’m not immune to slipping standards. This guy lowered the bar so low, that I considered him doing his job praise worthy

Please, don't use the 'r' word at Beehaw. It isn't nice and it's considered a slur.

Apologies, @admin. Thank you for the warning instead of instant ban. I will respect your community and pay attention to the site I'm commenting on the future.

I have edited my comment to comply with your mandate.
