We noted below that failing demagogue Donald "Rump" Trump's speech last night on Afghanistan was shell-and-pea games in which he said virtually nothing. We've collected some random Twitter reactions to his "I'm-reading-this-for-the-first-time" speech:
So, the president said he signed off on a strategy, but SecDef says he's still working on the strategy? https://t.co/WcwCChPCrE— paul mcleary (@paulmcleary) August 22, 2017
Once again shoring up theory announcement was rushed to distract from Charlottesville meltdown. https://t.co/gn4Ao80RjT— David Rothkopf (@djrothkopf) August 22, 2017
How long until he says "Everyone is saying this was the greatest speech on military stuff any president ever gave"? I give it until 11 am. https://t.co/6I3pId0H0L— Paul Waldman (@paulwaldman1) August 22, 2017

Missing elements in Trump's new Afghanistan policy: details, objectives, goals, troop levels, a strategy for success https://t.co/gIddlinjtJ— Steve Benen (@stevebenen) August 22, 2017
Dead giveaway that this speech, somber but hollow, was less about war and peace than about @POTUS's falling approval ratings post-Nazi riot https://t.co/6KxfqDbcbW— Laurence Tribe (@tribelaw) August 22, 2017

It is no wonder he doesn't recall our lack of victory in Vietnam since he wasn't involved; and I guess, since he doesn't know anything about history, he won't know that our exit from Korea was not a "victory" either. P.E.C.
P.E.C. -- He lacks the historical knowledge needed for the Presidency, and he since he's ignorant of it, he can't learn from it. Thanks!
"We (now he uses pronoun 'we'. normally it's Me, I ..) will fight in Afghanistan until; the next solar eclipse, I show my tax returns, I give putin the finger, when Mel holds my hand in public." Oy vey!!!
F.M. -- Until the polar ice cap re-freezes.....
I was trying' to think of one re. climate change. Thank You! (Good One)
