Trump, so far as I know, has no defined plan for Syria. This means, occasionally, that he lets advisers steer him wrong. Like this case.
So Trump's not responsible. I sure do love having a president who's not responsible.

Bulma, I don't know who you're trying to convince of what with your random speculative musing, but a couple of the Russiagate/Kremlingate facts are...
We don't have a decision yet, because we don't have any cold hard facts yet, because the investigation is still ongoing.
But we do have a pattern of cover-ups and distractions, and patterns are historically very reliable in their predictiveness.

In other news,
Now Trump is provoking North Korea!
We know that Kim Jong Un is either a tall child who knows not the power he wields, or downright clinically insane, but the proper response to a well-armed madman's raving is not the threat of military escalation. I wish Trump would cut the macho shit.
Hillary can run her mouth off all she wants because she didn't win. Trump would be doing the same thing. "Too bad it wasn't me, eh guys?!" Yeah, whatever. Go back to the dustbin of history.
- Info was leaked that Michael Flynn was in contact with the Russian ambassador during the campaign trail, plus some other unrelated items. President Trump then ordered the Justice Department to investigate the leaks themselves, not the content of the leaks.
- Michael Flynn has offered to testify in the Trump-Russia case so long as he's granted immunity. In Trump's own words; "If you're not guilty of a crime, what do you need immunity for?"
- Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnel is stonewalling the formation of an independent committee to investigate the Trump-Russia case. Ordinarily, if it's just the Senate's own committees doing the work, he and the Speaker of the House (Paul Ryan atm) have final say over what aspects of an investigation go public. This wouldn't be true if it were done by an independent body.
We don't have a decision yet, because we don't have any cold hard facts yet, because the investigation is still ongoing.

Hillary's plan for Syria involves making it even less hospitable, and declaring that it is now our duty to take in more refugees, since we caused the refugee crisis. I am not kidding. She wanted to missile attack them hours before Trump did, and she supports open borders.

You are very brave, Bulma. Keep that up and they'll send you to Room 101! (You will have the correct opinion OR ELSE. What is 2 + 2 again?)
Or they will go to your Steam game page and leave a nasty review with personal insults that Steam ends up taking down, sweet victory
Anyway, it is interesting that in local justice cases, motive is used at least as an intangible influence on the outcome. Yet, motive has been utterly ignored in this event.
I have a very hard time believing this chemical attack was actually carried out by Assad's government. It is well known that his party was well on its way to a Syrian Reconquista, bolstered by Russia. If Assad had these weapons, he would have used them a long time ago, when ISIS was making rapid territory gains in Syria, when the situation was more desperate. Why, on the cusp of victory, would Assad provoke the world's most powerful military by carrying out deliberate war crimes? He wouldn't, that's why. However, the Saudis and Isis would, because they have a LOT to gain by a US intervention against Assad.

And my bet is that most of what's going on between Trump and Russia is kompromat: not so much Trump trying to find an easy way into office as much as Russia playing their hand so that they'd own Trump, whether he liked it or not. The fact that he continues to be so cozy with Putin in spite of how it looks is pretty curious. If these accusations were bogus, you'd think they'd be a little less defensive while debunking them, and if Trump was actually guilty, you'd think he'd distance himself from the Russians. That leak from Russia (the one that--probably erroneously--claimed Trump was hiring underage prostitutes) is pretty typical of a kompromat threat: enough fake info to publicly debunk, but enough real info to make the victim of kompromat fall in line.
