Is Donald Trump the "Fidei Defensor" for Christians? by Philip Giraldi freepress.org/article/dona...
Is Donald Trump the "Fidei Defensor" for Christians?
Listening to the hardly coherent bombast coming out of Trump’s mouth my immediate reaction was to assume that nothing would happen beyond the threats and some sanctioning as Nigeria is a long distance way away from US bases and it would be a tough nut to crack for many reasons. Trump prefers to pick on countries that represent easier targets for his warlike demeanor. So I figured it was all a bit of theater, likely inspired by some administration clown whispering in Trumpstein’s ear shortly before our president decided to say something to show how tough he is.
