Looks like the swamp swallowed Trump.

But then again, Trump campaigned on not being weak willed on foreign diplomacy. Maybe this is just sending a message that he is not one to be toyed with. Granted, at best he is following through on Obamas line in the sand comments.
My initial reaction is that I voted for him on the basis that he wanted to avoid WWIII in Syria and this is a betrayal, but maybe there is more than meets the eye, after all, Trump has shown himself to be quite a remarkable politician.
