I believe that Trumps action of ignoring intelligence reports [View all]

is a set up for something big and dangerous to happen on American soil—before the next elections in 2018.

This would be for the sole purpose of making Trump a popular leader.

I recall it vividly after 911: Bush's popularity soared. Friends of mine who hated the guy said, "We must stand in unity now."
My feeling is that THIS time they'll go for some place like California. In California, we have a Democratic Super Majority, and a Democratic Governor. And I would guess the right wing HATE having to fight this every election cycle.

Sorry to post dumb guess work, but there is some scary, careless crud that Trump is doing. And sometimes you just need to scream about it.
