Damage Control or No Control? Trump Tees up Another Syria Sarin Hoax
From my latest article at Russia Insider:
...The most generous read of the situation I can muster is that Trump is being cornered on all sides by his domestic enemies. And this is just another way to box him in advance of the upcoming G-20 meeting where he will finally meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Trump and Putin’s initial meeting will set the tone and, more importantly, the agenda for any full diplomatic talks the two hold later in the year.
So, it is imperative that Trump’s opposition, i.e. the U.S. Deep State, push things as far as possible to remove avenues of discussion from his control. They are racing against the clock as the American people turn farther away from the obvious distraction of RussiaGate....

For Steemian Eyes Only
This was such an over-the-top move by the White House that it created a lot of confusion this morning. And I can only think now, having had all day to think it through, that this was damage control on the Sy Hersh article revealing Trump's idiocy in early April.
He had mostly corrected this mistake by mid-May with the Tillerson and Lavrov meetings, but the actions in Syria over the past two weeks have destroyed that as well. My best guess is that the Deep State is trying to bind him down with bullshit and ensure he can't act when he meets Putin next month.
The House putting the kibosh on John McCain's "sanctions-as-soft-coup" bill yesterday was a good thing for Trump. It took some heat off of him. But, he's up to his neck right now and there is almost zero informational control at this point.

James O'Keef hidden camera of CNN Producer admitting Russian Narritive is bullshit. They do it for the money and ratings no proof... Here is the video Link put out by Project Varitas . Enjoy ;)
Let's hope you are right and he just didn't screw it up on his own.
He's destroying this country not making it better , trying to start a war that should be avoided
The jury is still out on that. I will say that SOMEONE or SOMEGROUP is trying to start a war. I'm not convinced Trump is willingly going along... but I won't rule it out at this point either.
What I do know, is that he's not nearly as much of an alpha male as he thinks he is... and that makes him more dangerous than I thought.
God bless America
