Trump: I Should Be a ‘National Hero’

In his now-clockwork early-morning tweetstorm, Donald Trump lauded his own surprise-to-the-military actions on removing U.S. troops from Syria, suggesting that he be dubbed a “national hero” for taking on ISIS in his fashion. “If anybody but Donald Trump did what I did in Syria, which was an ISIS loaded mess when I became President, they would be a national hero,” Trump wrote. “ISIS is mostly gone, we’re slowly sending our troops back home to be with their families, while at the same time fighting ISIS remnants.” He added: “I campaigned on getting out of Syria and other places. Now when I start getting out the Fake News Media, or some failed Generals who were unable to do the job before I arrived, like to complain about me & my tactics, which are working. Just doing what I said I was going to do!” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) had announced hours earlier that Trump had agreed to a “pause situation” and would slow down the apparent sudden removal of U.S. troops from Syria. Commanders reportedly emphasized to Trump when he met with troops in Iraq last week that ISIS had not been “completely destroyed” as the president had earlier claimed.

Separately, Trump introduced the concept of a “see-through” wall along the southern U.S. border with Mexico—as opposed to a concrete one. “An all concrete Wall was NEVER ABANDONED, as has been reported by the media,” Trump said. “Some areas will be all concrete but the experts at Border Patrol prefer a Wall that is see through (thereby making it possible to see what is happening on both sides). Makes sense to me!” The federal government’s shutdown over the matter has entered its 10th day.

3. Not too late to be a national hero Donnie.

Resign and take your fucking grifting spawn and the nude broad with you to Russia.

[Rorey]

4. "ISIS is mostly gone..."

F---ing idiot can't get it through his stupid head that "mostly gone" isn't gone. If it's not eradicated, it builds right back to where it was, if not stronger. It's like stopping your antibiotics before your infection is gone.

5. His ego is worse than Hitler's and he's

not even 1/4 as smart.

[Dustlawyer]

15. Who calls themselves a national hero?

[akraven]

17. Not even Shrub did that. Nor did Rayguns. Not even Nixon was that far gone.

It's all "worship at my feet, minions" with sTrump.

[Renew Deal]

8. He followed Obama's plan for Syria.

Trump was always going to abandon Syria to the Russians. That was the cost of getting him elected.

[grantcart]

9. Pelosi should have hearings on the wall and border security

Invite Trump to testify.

That would be the end of the wall

10. Makes sense to me!

So sayeth the crazy person.

14. You 'should' be

Put onto a Space Force rocket and blasted into the Sun

[smirkymonkey]

16. You are so insane and delusional, you need to be locked in a padded cell.

I don't even know where to start on any of this. Every word of it is just bat-shit crazy.

23. He's NOT a national hero in Russia.

They see Trumpy as Putin's stooge. So does Europe. Everyone knows it except Trumpy's fanboys. They think he's God on a stick.

[YessirAtsaFact]

28. My tweet was a slap in the face

not a statement of fact. I realize they think he’s a stooge.

[C_U_L8R]

20. You want a parade or something?

Cram it, Donny.

[Wounded Bear]

21. Perhaps you "should" be, but you're not...

Being a hero implies that one is doing something to help something other than yourself. I have yet to see any inkling of that.

Yeah, Americans like to think their President is a "hero." You are not that guy.

[democrank]

22. Not even close to being a hero

but he’s definitely a national disgrace.

[lpbk2713]

24. How's that big DC parade going Shithead?

The end is near and it won't be pretty.

[Ferrets are Cool]

25. If any Democratic politician disparaged the military like that asshole does

on a constant basis, they would be impeached immediately. I keep wanting to know how the FUCK he gets away with it. We are living in upside down world.

26. National disgrace

Text of the tweet:

ISIS was mostly gone when you became president you bloated dotard. Now, they have a chance to reconstitute themselves because you're following Putin's agenda. #PutinsPuppet #TrumpRussia

[DFW]

29. That's actually surprisingly close for him. He's only off by one letter.

The "H" needs to be turned into a "Z" and then he'd be spot on.
