Donald Trump is behaving like the leader of the strongest nation in the free world. World on notice that this country's priorities, safety are infinitely more important than a golf game or Christmas in Hawaii or a retreat to Martha's Vineyard
The memory so often returns of the day I heard Sen. Hillary Clinton on a live NPR broadcast selling all of her cohorts on the necessity of our invading Iraq. She was so intense in her pitch I thought she was going to break into tears. Just on the intelligence gathered during the final four years of her husband's presidency she said she was absolutely certain Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction. According to her, we had no recourse but to invade Iraq.
Then of course when public opinion about our being in Iraq went completely south, Hillary and all the other Democrats who had pushed for that preemptive invasion turned their backs on what they had helped to do - and denied ever having had any part in it. (That may have been the true beginning of 'fake news'!) Of course G.W. inherited that blame as well.
