American Optimism Over Economy Surging with Trump Presidential Win

Headline lacks clarity--sounds as if the economy is surging, not merely optimism surging that the economy will eventually get going.

Funny. You seem to be the only one that didn't get it right away. Built in bias that blinded you, perhaps. At least temporarily.

Obama did not take out Saddam which created the vacuum that caused the travesty of ISIS. DUBYA did that.

It was Obama that pulled all US troops out of Iraq creating that vacuum. He did this in defiance of all military advice to the contrary. Obama turned a win into a loss, just as democrats always have a tendency to do, and created ISIS in the process. Then he armed them through Libya, compounding the problem.

yea just innocent women and children caught in the cross hairs.
The US contributes more to the UN Humanitarian Crisis Relief than any other country, which is an attempt to help civilians in areas of conflict. We have dozens of private charities that attempt to help. Military intervention should be a last resort, just look at the Libya wasteland.

Yea now I get to look at both the Libyan and Syrian wastelands. The last time the Russians tried this (in Afghanistan) the CIA (with the support of Congress) secured weaponry to help the primitives / natives throw the Russians out w/o putting troops on the ground.....not so here. At least arm the Syrians.

And I might add, minimizing ISIS by calling them the 2nd string. :Mad What a pant load!

The CIA has been supporting rebels in Syria with training and weapons. Of course Assad and Putin crossed all of President Obama's lines in the sand. It's too late in the day to become more involved.

Now you are talking like Obama.....Bill Clinton did the same in Kosovo
