Trump said yesterday that it would be a huge mistake to have a crazy person in charge of Nuclear weapons. Are there no mirrors in the White House?

As I wrote earlier, there is NO clear purpose or exit strategy. IMO, give it a few weeks and they'll stop and make some fatuous claim of it all having been a success.

Cyprus representative in London saying they're unhappywith the UK. FFS we have TWO bases there. It was one of those bases that was hit. We have defences that seem not to have worked on that occasion. We're sending a ship in a couple of days once it's 100% stacked and ready. Allies like the French have boats there, France has a carrier on the way accompanied by a Dutch destroyer. We can't teleport ships there.
I think they said ‘first torpedo sinking by the US since WW2’, so…no.

My exact thought when I heard Trump’s utterance about ‘crazy people in charge’.
