So if you agree that exactly what President said is not what should be done, why argue with everyone who also agrees he’s wrong.
It’s great that you have a reasonable suggestion for what he should do or say, but that’s not what he did or said.
You mentioned not cowering in shame like the last administration. As there was no actual change in policy, the only difference is that this President has said he instructed the navy to do something that would be an act of war.
