Many of President Donald Trump’s top media allies blasted him over the decision to launch strikes against Syria on Friday. In one major conservative media ecosystem after another, the president met opposition, and concern about the financial cost of another foreign intervention, from many of the people who are normally his most vocal cheerleaders. On Fox News, the strike was met with heavy skepticism by several of the show’s primetime hosts. While close presidential ally Sean Hannity praised Trump’s assertiveness, hosts Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingraham both questioned the decision to strike.
“I guess it feels good because there are horrible things happening there,” Ingraham said. “But what do we really accomplish here tonight in Syria? This is not why Donald Trump got elected."
Among conservative radio personalities, the reception was equally frosty.
Ann Coulter spent the evening retweeting criticism of the strike, remarking on Twitter that former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe might beat Trump in 2020 “if you promised no more ‘stupid wars.’”
Michael Savage, a popular conservative radio talk show personality, livestreamed himself at dinner blasting the president, saying that America had become “a nation of idiots” in the wake of the attack.

Good on at least some people lifting the blinders & calling foul on this one. I don't think he's going to live this one down, and it's going to erode quite a bit of the base he still has bowing at his feet.
Unfortunately, as for the thread, it's still the first page, and therefore plenty of time for the diehards to come in screaming "RINO! RINO!" in limp rebuttal.

I have been telling people many times Trump is a stooge. This was the popular viewpoint of many anti TPTB leftists before he was elected. Its just that many in the right just put their head in the sand.

It's an inarguable debate with the left and not worth fighting.
I think we'll see results, the kind of results we should have seen during Kennedy's Reign but sadly didn't due to indiscrepancies.

What makes you think Trump can pull it off when JFK one of the most beloved presidents was murdered by "them"...?
