Looks like Wall Street is expressing its dismay over Trump policies today. There's something different about people who play by the books, even if it's just an accounting ledger. It imposes a need for accountability, and prevents you from pretending to be rich or trying to rewrite history every day.

I never expected Trump to appeal to his own impotence as the reason he can't bring Kilmar home, but here we are! I did not see that one coming.
Just doesn't seem like the kind of thing he'd brag about.

"Homegrown terrorists," or as we know them, "people who object to totalitarian rule."
I'd say if the America most of us were born to stands for anything at all, it is Freedom of Speech - the right to dissent. Nobody needs rights of any kind to "agree" with, or acquiesce to a despotic tyrant.

So, if Venezuelans are here with tattoos, that's a war. But if we merely attack our political enemies with drones and F-18s in their foreign lands, that's not a war. Ergo, running your mouth about it *before it happens* in a semi-public forum doesn't involve war plans. Got it.
