$100 million

Orangutan's Missile distraction

$100 million is the estimated cost of that little missile barrage in Syria. And what did we get for it? Not much. As was stated, the US had told the Russians about the attack for "Deconfliction". That means that we didn't want to kill Russians in the attack so we notified them before hand.

Do you think the Russians didn't tell the Syrians that we were going to blowup their planes?? Of course they did, why do you think we didn't damage more planes. They don't keep the planes sitting out when they have hardened shelters for them.

Why didn't we target the runways? If you are attacking an airport, you don't want them to use the runways do you? Again, this was more than likely done because Russians were at the base. So what did we get for our $100 million?

The entire event was a distraction. A wag-the-dog. Orangutan wanted to deflect all the attention from him on the hacking scandal and give him something to talk about after the disaster of a China meeting. Did we hear much about that? No, the missile distraction took away any talk about what they said during those meetings.

The media was happy to skip along writing about those missiles and didn't even bother to say much about China. China, America's largest trading partner who has a ton of American dept and is trying to get more control in the South China Sea, and has been lacking the will to pull in North Korea. But of course, not doing much on North Korea will give China another bargaining chip, something else to hold over Orangutan's head...

This is what America gets for electing a stupid person, who only thinks of himself and a sold out media that only cares about where the next dollar comes from and are not to worried about who is giving it to them...
