In reply to the discussion: I don't believe for a moment Trump was moved by the poisoned children. [View all]Alice11111
(5,730 posts)51. Sorry, but I don't think the religious RW cares about THOSE babies.
DT and the religious RW have been seeing these photos for 6 fucking years. I remember when Assad had killed 7000 innocent people and Hillary was calling for action. The genocide was committed by Assad alone, until Putin jumped in, under the guise of fighting ISIS. They are both war criminals and the US has been heartless.
I think maybe McMaster and the generals convinced DT, but his speech belies what he has surely seen over and over for years. This time, and 2013, it's chemical, but it was still killing children.

OP
Nor do I. Narcissists don't suddenly become empathetic. They know how to act to manipulate others.

I don't think he ever paid any attention to the pictures in 2013 or those poor migrant kids
