That’s right folks. Trump who said that he’d come up with a super secret plan to defeat ISIS after talking with the generals is told by the generals, including his own pick in Mattis that the best way to defeat ISIS is to continue Obama’s tactics and strategy.
Yeah, how long before Trump: 1) takes credit for the strategy all along; 2) blames Obama if it doesn’t work out well because Trump’s own statements are being incorporated into ISIS propaganda on a daily basis undermining the military strategy on the ground; or 3) both.
