Well, I can't say I'm surprised it took him this long. Though I'm not that surprised that he eventually turned against SA. I doubt SA had won many points in conservative circles to begin with.
It always takes a couple of days for Mattis to shove the sycophants aside, get Trump in a room alone, and explain to him why he's being a damn idiot in a way that makes the orange fuckwit change his tune and pretend that Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia. I guess we should be glad that Mattis is there to do that, but seriously, I'd rather have a halfway competent POTUS.
Uhhhh... did you intend to put Mattis in the role of the government in 1984 reinforcing the lie of endless war?
The most you can say is Trump was hoping for a good explanation before rendering final judgement.
I just get so, so tired of seeing Trump pretend he isn't doing a complete 180 when Mattis manipulates his dumb orange ass into doing something halfway decent. I swear to god, Trump's like Big Brother. Constantly changing his tune and pretending that he's never changed. Gigantic orange waste of oxygen.
The only reason Trump isn't the worst President ever is because James Buchanan existed.

Did Trump at one point say that the Saudis didn't do it?
I've blocked Darth, but let me say this. The biggest problem is Trump opening his mouth and saying something stupid. He's illiterate, dumb, insensitive, and intellectually challenged. He needs a team of handlers in order not to say something that will literally offend everybody within range, whether Republican, Democrat, left, right, whatever is what I think Worffan101's point was.
