My Star is Rising! . . .

Social media cheered last week after Trump stated that he would be withdrawing troops from Syria – that it wasn't our fight, we weren't winning it, and it wasn't worth doing.   Yesterday afternoon, Trump now speaks about a Syrian-Russian-Iranian axis and how we are going to rain fire and get justice, I'm paraphrasing but does it matter?

Trump's basic instincts were right, but his emergent staff choices tell a different story.

Somebody call Yossi, I'm ready to report to duty!  Kidding aside, there could be a simple explanation for all of this – the best way for a president to stay out of court and possibly jail is to start a war, or at least shoot some missiles, preferably at a place that won't shoot any back at you.  With the deep state reactionaries gunning nonstop for Trump, his lawyers, his businesses, and his family, he may be just following the well-worn path of those who went before him.
