Look, I wanted this. I wanted these air strikes against Assad for years. Ever since 2011, I’ve been saying that Assad needs to get bombed and then removed from office before he does too much damage.
But… At the same time, we are talking about President Trump here. I can’t trust the man to run a pair of stocks, let alone a military intervention into a 6-year-long civil war. If this had happened under Hillary or Sanders, I would have been all for it from the get go, simply because I can actually trust both of them to actually have a coherent plan (Hillary actually had one for her no-fly zone proposal) instead of just jumping the gun without planning for what happens next.
