Opinion | Trump Gets No Soleimani Bump

The past two decades have exhausted Americans’ willingness to accept or even risk extended military action in the Middle East. Whoever takes the oath as president in January 2021 will face a daunting task: building a sustainable Middle East policy on the ruins of U.S. engagement in the region.

The events of recent weeks have revealed the weakness of the U.S. position. Bashar Assad’s regime, now a wholly owned subsidiary of Khamenei & Putin Inc., is pursuing a ruthless offensive in Idlib, Syria’s last rebel-held province....

opinion BillGalston Nope. .. will get him re elected

opinion BillGalston Alt left hackjobs at their finest, when trump pulls out of the middle east, they cry out that we abandon our kurdish allies, but when trump wants to do something in the middle, east, they reverse course and start crying out abt 'excessive involvement in the region', such hacks

opinion BillGalston But there will be no more damage done by Mr Soleimani. Agreed?

opinion BillGalston As usual, your opinion is wrong

opinion BillGalston CFR_org Silly article. The purpose of foreign policy is to advance American interests, not improve poll numbers or fret about pundit “concerns.” That was the way BarackObama JohnKerry ran their fully politicized foreign policy - not realDonaldTrump, who cares about America.

opinion BillGalston Hmm, I thought it was about making the world a safer place.🤔

opinion BillGalston How do you spell QUAGMIRE?

opinion BillGalston Apparently this poll did not check in with any of the folks at the national championship football game.

opinion BillGalston Ask Putin who’s next?

opinion BillGalston I don't think it's intent was to effect poll numbers. I would it was done to preserve American lives.

opinion BillGalston It’s worth taking a second and thinking about how f***ed up it is having a president who puts countless american lives at risk and possibly provoke a war because he thinks it might giving him a polling bump, make him look ‘tough’

opinion BillGalston Well, it distracted the rubes from the impeachment for a few days.

opinion BillGalston BS

opinion BillGalston Winning by killing? What a way to win? Only in U.S. Obama started this winning crap by killing Osama! Now Trump boy imitating Obama boy! Winning by killing! American way of winning! Keep on killing!

opinion BillGalston I guess Trump was right again! 'We're going to win so much you're going to get tired of winning'.

opinion BillGalston No immediate threat Page/Strozk - InsurancePolicy = 'ContractKilling' Organized Crime Jargon LisaPage Iranian PeterStrzok = Reared middle-east China using Iran as an espionage proxy BillBarr RICO THEN Treason Qanon conspiracy .realDonaldTrump WednesdayThoughts

opinion BillGalston The Earth, World, 🌎 is a better place without Salami Since Sept. 11, 2001 I have heard no rebellious conflicting conversation about taking out a terrorist Til now Guantonamo bay had more problems than a Salamoni situation

opinion BillGalston Of course, the MSM paints everything Trump does in a negative light. I also don’t believe your polls or anything you say.

opinion BillGalston He got the bump from the Electorate!

opinion BillGalston well anyone that does NOT support trump killing terrorists can get the hell out of America

opinion BillGalston A lot of people died to win an election. Does it matter to Trump?

opinion BillGalston The MSM did its job. Sad

opinion BillGalston I seriously doubt that every decision he makes has to do with polls.

opinion BillGalston Only to those who think like liberal media tells them to think. As an INDEPENDENT thinker, I am thankful that Soleimani is dead and can't kill innocent people anymore!

opinion BillGalston Let's be honest, this ISN'T a President & WH that is Foreign Policy or Nat'l Security prudent. Therefore when previous administrations, who were far more qualified, DIDN'T carry out an assassination of a high-ranking military leader ... America knew it WASN'T necessary now!

opinion BillGalston This is yet to tell the real tale. Look what is happening in Iran now as the people are protesting and calling out the government.

opinion BillGalston The only people that brought politics into it were the Left/media. And if this is what it took to refocus attention on why the hell we are still in the Middle East...Then good 👍🏼 Let’s bring em home!

opinion BillGalston there is only one person who caused irans conflict/.it was warmonger trumps doing only,,then his adm fell in step behind him/. after all his lies murder is even ok as we witnessed in the saudi murder/. of a american journalist/.

opinion BillGalston Chumps

opinion BillGalston Soleimani was illegally in Iraq. Keeping the bad actors inside their borders reduces their involvement with the U.S. In the only poll that counts, The U.S.'s numbers went up with Persians. tt:SecPompeo EsperDoD

opinion BillGalston you don't think so? I bet it further bolsters his reputation with those people who are on the fence about him (i.e. the independents) who will make or break the election (oh, and those moderate Dems who are too chicken to admit they support him). keepingamericastrongandsafe

opinion BillGalston How did this headline not manage to blame Democrats? Did hell freeze over.

opinion BillGalston well, i guess it's a damn good thing that wasn't the reason the terrorist was killed

opinion BillGalston He needed to go otherwise we would have another bengazi.

opinion BillGalston Stopped reading after 'WSJopinion' 🙄

opinion BillGalston It seems like those who live and work within the NYC-DC miasma just don't get it.

opinion BillGalston Is that why we do foreign policy? To boost poll numbers? Insipid.

opinion BillGalston Did Trump lie about killing Soleimani to protect four American embassies, what about the surveillance on the Ukraine’s ambassador, who might have been in danger by Americans?

opinion BillGalston all mid east nations are coming together against imperialist britain and america
