Things could have gone awry here, but President Trump ignored the potential harm to his campaign and made the bold decision to save another American hostage. Promises made, promises kept.

I love America so much.

I go to bed every night knowing if I'm ever kidnapped anywhere in the world, my country will come to rescue me regardless of my status in society or how much money I make.

God bless Donald Trump, and God bless the United States Of America.

America is not a place. It is a people. It is a brotherhood. No one fucks with our brothers.

Just know this; They will only rescue you if the right President is in office. Pretty much only Reagan and Trump. Oh, and we have to give a special mention to Jimmy Carter for at least trying. Also, if you are held hostage in China, you wont be saved, no matter who is in the White House.

Don't go to China. Right now they are like Hotel California. You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

Yeah, hat tip to Jimmy Carter. He at least tried to rescue the Americans held hostage in Iran. When the rescue attempt (Operation Eagle Claw) went sideways and FUBAR, Jimmy Carter didn't throw anyone under the bus. He accepted full responsibility.

Fortune favors the bold.

And this isn't even the boldest move Trump made.

FUCK THE MEDIA

If this had gone bad, it'd be breaking news everywhere. Instead, nobody will hear about it

This is an important point, I really think Pres. Trump is not political. If this went poorly, the media would be all over it. I think he does what he thinks is right. I cannot wait to vote and MAGA!

This is why we have nations. To protect our freedom at home, and anywhere in the world. If country X fucks w/Americans they need to find out. They learn to not fuck with America, and we enjoy the resulting security. Pepe remembers the pirates stopped seizing US flagged shipping some years back after popping some Somali pirates.

He probably wasn't even involved in the decisionmaking, having told the military "do what you have to do whenever you can do it." Because delegating military decisionmaking to military leadership is one mark of a good Commander-In-Chief.
