From The New York Times: "But the president should know by now that tough talk without a coherent strategy or follow-through is dangerous."

From The Week: "How can the president lurch from recommending a precipitous withdrawal from Syria to, as seems likely this morning, ordering a military strike on an entity with which we are not even formally at war?"

3. Trump's 'get ready' threat to Moscow isn't just careless, it's dangerous

From The Guardian: "The latest knee-jerk tweet from the White House is a palpable escalation of the war in Syria."
