Trump and Guantánamo - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

This is a simple case, if the suspect is  Al Qaeda then he should be moved to Gitmo and held as long as needed, the War on Terror is still going on, there is Al Qaeda and Daesh out there, the US needs to get intelligence on them, the best way is to capture them if they can not be droned, then they can be checked out over time, to see if they have any information of value, then held for trial by the US military.   The uber liberal NYT will never understand the threat from the Middle East, it needs a hard heart and a back bone made of steel.   The liberals with Obama failed to crush Daesh, they were more successful with drone strikes, one wonders if the liberals would have been so supportive if a Republican President used drones as much as President Obama did in his time in office.  

The Scandal of the Scandal - Flynn Resignation - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

As noted in my previous post the next question to be asked by the main stream media is what did President Trump know and when was he informed of the substance of the talks between Flynn and the Russian Ambassador.   It can be argued that CNN has become the liberal opposition, if to go by their prime time coverage, this blogger is still waiting for a positive story from CNN about Trump, it is not holding its breath.   It might be time for the Trump Administration to get tougher on Iran and North Korea, if nothing else it's the right policy and and would divert attention.   In case some liberal writers are starting to say that this blog is calling for a War in the Middle East or Asia is to miss the point, both Iran and North Korea need to be taught a lesson, they have pushed the US to far over the years, it could be argued that the US should take out the missile compounds in Iran and warn North Korea than any new missile test will to some kind of military action.   As for Russia, let the US get tougher, arm the Soldiers of East Ukraine.   That will really upset the elite press.

Flynn BREAKS record, shortest National Security Advisor - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

The Gipper had a few National Security Advisors, one every few years, it can be argued that it is good to have new blood in the team, okay 24 days is fast, one can argue that it is so early in the Administration that within a few months it will be forgotten, of course the Democrats on the Hill want to have Flynn before their Committees, they wish to further wound Trump, lets hope there is no more damaging news out there, the Democrats will want to know did the President okay the Russian calls and what did know about their substance.   The liberal 24/7 news channels will run with the story ALL day.   This is Christmas for them and it came early. 

Will the Trump Administration become Anti Russia - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

It will be interesting to see how the Russian policy of the Trump Administration develops, will it still seek a better relationship or will we return to the new Cold War 2.  Both Bush 43 and Obama 44 tried for a better relationship with Russia and failed, on the other hand Reagan called the then USSR an Evil Empire and was later accused of carrying water for Gorbachev after the Cold War has really come to an end.   Thus it might be an idea for Trump to be tough on Russia and see how it develops, if your seen as to nice at the start you get accused of being a threat to US national security, at least Reagan could say that he had been very tough on Russia, but changed policy with the coming of Gorbachev.   

Flynn and the US Justice Department - Trump Era


Lets Get Real:

The uber liberal press and networks will have a field day with this resignation, they are after the Trump Presidency, the see Trump as a racist and anti woman, etc, thus any political wounding is all right in their books.   The Trump Oval should get a new long term NSA fast, one with a clean record and someone that the press will not dislike on his or her first day.   It has been argued that the White House Chief of Staff is weak and should go, that would be an over reaction, it takes time to bed in an Administration.   There great white shark that is D.C elite are always after new blood in the water, it is their idea of a soap opera. 

The Flynn Resignation Letter - The Trump Era

Lets Get Real:

What is surprising is that General Flynn forget that the NSA records calls from Washington D.C to Russia, they are everywhere and know all, so when Flynn forgot or mislead the Vice - President he should have know that the National Security Agency could have tripped him with the actual transcripts of the calls.   The Democrats will now be asking, how much did the President know and when did he find out.   Politics in the US has become a blood sport, its a favourite of Washington Elite.

Flynn Quits as National Security Advisor - Trump Era

Lets Get Real:

The resignation is no great surprise, during the weekend the Trump White House did not defend Flynn on the Sunday talk shows, then the President was said to be Evaluating the case, then it was fluid, now we have the resignation.   The main political crime was that he mislead the Vice - President about the nature of his calls with the Russian Ambassador, then sent out the VP to tell a false versions to the TV networks.   The press are after blood when it comes to Trump, they hate him, and will go after any story.   The Russians will not be happy, Flynn was seen as wanting better relationship between the US and Russia, who will be the next NSA, will he or she be tougher on Russia.   There is nothing better for Washington D.C than when there is blood in the water, now the reports will be asking how much did Trump know about the calls.
