Trump's ISIS announcement....BLAND...

When I watched the announcement unfold, I could not help but notice how bland, unemotional, and monotoned Trump was. It was as if he had trouble seeing the words on the teleprompter. Nor was Lindsey Graham any help in the matter. The speech and choice of words were 3rd Grade level at best.

The credit for this, Trump wants so badly. He criticized Pres. Obama for the killing of OBL. THAT was a mission so tactical, there was no margin of error. America celebrated that. I doubt there will be much celebration for this being the events taking place in Syria and our turning our backs on the Kurds will only resuscitate ISIS wherever they are. Their retaliation against Americans will be unmerciful. It is only a matter of time when they will strike.

What say you?
