What this US strike against Syrian air base has done for Trump.

1. Israel, that is the most important nation for Trump other than America. This air strike was good for Israel because it keeps the chaos ongoing in a neighbouring country.

2. China, because all that tough talk on China including how China was raping America according to Trump, kind of goes away. This air strike happened during the big summit, where Trump lauded Commadre Xi and declared a 100 day window to conduct trade negotiations. Really, the relationship is that intricate, it will take a minimum of that before they can come to terms with something everyone can live with. If Trump campaign on how he will negotiate with his friend Chairman Xi, he won't get elected. So he was able to move the Sino-US relationship forward, by doing the exact opposite of what he promised, yet no one is going to remember because the story of the day is how he attacked a chemical substance abuser.

3. The Democratic Part of America, still looking like the loser that lost to Trump. With this air strike, Putin says the obvious that it made the US Russia relationship very difficult. Whatever Russian connection or collusion between Trump & his crew and Boris & Natasha, is bit of a reach. Unless the Democrats continue with this line of this is just part of the Trump-Putin plot, another false flag to be supplemented with secret deal later, which is essentially the gist of the current narrative on the matter. Keep going that way the Democrats will be going further into coco-land, or some neighbourhoods in New York City and some institutions of higher learning in and around the Boston area.

4. Traditional Republicans against Trump, talk about time to shut the fvck up time. That's the Americans for you. They love it when their Prez does the tomahawk chop. To be anti-Trump today, is to be anti-American. Wonder what the likes of McBain or Bush family going to complain about now. Not enough wars again.

5. The situation on the ground in Syria, is that it is just as confusing as before. That may be the ultimate goal for US Middle East policy, divide and conquer, albeit the time table is indefinite for that. Good for Israel though. The fact is, the facts on the ground have not changed, however, it will be unlikely radically changed now. Everyone is more careful. You have to be. Anti-Assad forces have been given a big boost to continue. In short, American interests may be been advanced, as this was no step backwards like Obama declaring a Red Line then go play golf.

6. Accusations against Trump that be betrayed his followers of the alt-right with this military intervention, does not make any sense. Trump is a 1% New York City landlord. He cannot sell out by definition. A sell out, sells outs of his cause to join the establishment. Trump IS the establishment. How can you sell out to what you already are. Like the Ch'an Buddhist riddles, what is the sound of one hand clapping - how do you sell out, when you already a sell out. The alt-right should do some more religious study. Also Trump knows this, alt-right, where else are they going to go to? Again, sit down, shut up. Sit down, shut up, and watch how the 100 day negations period with China, how 45 days will be devoted to Trump family values and commercial interests in China. But since he tomahawk chopped the chemical substance abuser, no one cares!
