Trump's Multi-dimensional Thinking Confounds his Critics

[my2¢]

It's easy to understand by whose butt Trump is kissing. With Afghanistan it was the Taliban's and now it is Netanyahu's.

Many of President Trump's critics are unable or unwilling to understand his multi-dimensional thinking. Instead, they become fixated on individual components of his Iran policy instead grasping the strategic concepts involved.

For example, the timing of his attack was not solely based on a precise calculation of threat level. Although Iran's persistent production of offensive weapons made armed intervention inevitable, it did not lend itself to a specific date for the attack. Just like with the D-Day invasion, other factors (e.g., weather) had to line up to maximize the probability of success.

These factors included a general assessment of Iran's negotiating position and specific information about the whereabouts of Iran's top leadership. Taken together, these factors led to a rational conclusion as to when the attack would be most propitious. So far, this was a brilliant decision.

Multidimensional?

Try illogical… poorly planned

There is simply not a better example of alternate universes than this OP.

You want to laugh, but it's just no longer funny.

A majority of the country and the entire world see it, but the flock does not.

I don't think they are reevaluating anything. Sure they have a defense against our subs, AI integrated systems. And the J20 has been pretty impressive. We are a couple years away from being able to adequately defend air superiority over any given theater in the Pacific.

I mean no one seems to get it. In one week, one week, Trump unloaded years worth of production. You can bet, China is evaluating.

We surfaced a sub right in their backyard and they had no idea it was there. An invasion of Taiwan will cost them severely in todays technology. Chinas economy is 100% dependent on exports. If they attack they will be embargoed and their economy will collapse.

The child-like simplicity of Dotard's thinking can be boiled down to one thing. "What's in it for me?"

Your assessment is childlike
