New York Senator Schumer<\/p>\n
The distant popping sound you are hearing are Progtard heads exploding. How dare any fly in the face of what they feel to be the absolute truth- Trump is an evil bumbling criminal idiot who surrounds himself with sycophants and yes men, and is incapable deciding which shoes to wear. Much less command the Ship of State.<\/p>\n
I’m sure these traits are common among New York real estate billionaires.<\/p>\n
Yet present and past and advisers have a different opinion.<\/p>\n

By KRISTINA WONG<\/strong><\/p>\n In the days after President Trump authorized the killing of Iranian Quds Force leader Qasem Soleimani, mainstream media reports and pundits painted a picture of an erratic commander in chief \u2014 one who had made a hasty, ill-thought out decision that would prompt a new war.<\/p>\n Yet, current and former administration officials and analysts say his handling of Iran showed restraint, deliberateness, and the ability to make tough decisions.<\/p>\n Before using force, \u201che always does the same thing,\u201d said one senior administration official in a phone interview on background with Breitbart News earlier this month.<\/p>\n \u201cHe consults with his cabinet, asks for the intelligence, and takes the opinion of his leadership\u2026and so I think he takes a very calculated and measured response over time,\u201d the official said.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is very methodical about it and very calm in these meetings, and asks lots of questions and lots of updates before he jumps to any conclusions. So it\u2019s a very detailed and thought out process,\u201d the official added.<\/p>\n Critics decried the lack of a decision-making process, but Army Gen. (Ret.) Jack Keane, former vice chief of staff of the Army, who has informally advised the president, confirmed there is a process to present Trump with options and the risks and ladder of escalation associated with each one.<\/p>\n \u201cThe national security team goes through this in some level of detail,\u201d he said. \u201cWhen it comes to decisions that involve potential loss of American lives or even our adversaries lives, the President from everything I know is very involved in the process.\u201d<\/p>\n Air Force Brig. Gen. (Ret.) Robert S. Spalding III, former senior director for Strategic Planning at the NSC under the Trump administration, said \u201c[Trump] especially likes differing points of view. He wants people to debate, and he wants to see the debate, which I think is important.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n What’s this? Measured, deliberate, informed decisions made over time using the best minds at his disposal, seeking the best possible outcome for America, especially when they disagree? This is no boorish frat boy born with a silver spoon and an attitude *cough JEF.*<\/p>\n The adults are in charge. This is leadership.
