Using surface to air defensive missiles to hit a drug facility?
Act of war?
"surface to air" - Idk, I might be okay with taking out those Mexican meth lab blimps.
If you read the article, Cheetohead claims "they'll never know it was us and we'll just deny it" or some such.
Missiles leave debris. Also, short range missiles? Where else could they come from?
Three years in being CIC and completely clueless.
My bad, sorry.
... When Mr. Esper raised various objections, Mr. Trump said that “we could just shoot some Patriot missiles and take out the labs, quietly,” adding that “no one would know it was us.” ...
The Patriot is a SAM and former PINO is doubly stupid.
Former President Donald Trump’s mangled recitation of the names of the 21 Uvalde, Texas, mass shooting victims at the National Rifle Association’s convention on Friday made Twitter critics’ blood run cold.
The names of the 19 children and two teachers, broken up into hardly recognizable syllables in Trump’s stumbling pronunciation, were interspersed with the funereal sound of a gong.
Despite the tragedy, Trump hailed the NRA in his speech at its convention in Houston and ended his remarks with his trademark clenched fists and “cha-cha-cha” dance move.
He blamed the horrific bloodshed at yet another American school on “broken families” — and called efforts to curb gun violence “grotesque.”
Twitter users found the entire spectacle horrifying.
One critic said the readings sounded like some kind ceremonial sacrifice to the NRA cult.
The death rattle of a dying country.
Many were dumbfounded by Trump’s apparent lack of preparation to read the names of the dead children and their teachers.
It's hard to imagine a greater insult to the dead. Just stop.
This is beyond offensive.
Reading the names of the victims at an NRA rally is the most abhorrent thing one can do.
This sociopath is so self-absorbed and disconnected that he is incapable of understanding the very nature of the vile and detached insult he is conveying to the broken hearted people of Uvalde in their moment of unimaginable grief and sorrow.
Beyond shameful.
Others had very different ideas for Trump’s ghoulish dance at the end.

Is this too much to ask for?
He really needs to pay.
Trump: “We had the safest border in the history of our country - or at least recorded history. I guess maybe a thousand years ago it was even better.”
You’ve probably seen Donald Trump’s ‘stable genius’ defence after those unfortunate revelations in the book by Michael Wolff.
….Actually, throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart. Crooked Hillary Clinton also played these cards very hard and, as everyone knows, went down in flames. I went from VERY successful businessman, to top T.V. Star…..

….to President of the United States (on my first try). I think that would qualify as not smart, but genius….and a very stable genius at that!

It inspired people to get lyrical on Twitter, riffing on a song from the Pirates of Penzance, beginning (we think) with this guy.
And that, it turned out, was only just the beginning ...
Many more hilarious tweets at the link, several by Nick Harvey.
And if you’re wondering what the hell’s going on – took us a while – it’s this.
The Very Model of a Modern Major General is from Pirates of Penzance.
70-something years old, a lifetime of bad nutrition, obese, no exercise, little sleep, stressful life filled with anger - how can this lousy excuse for a human being still be alive? And are we sure zombies aren't real?
