Its a major crisis waiting to happen. For all we know, Trump could lose it and decide to nuke them. After Tillerson basically said diplomacy has failed and that all options are on the table, he high tailed it back to the us, cutting his trip short claiming he was tired. Dubious.. maybe he is just getting out of the line of fire before we start bombing.

were because the evidence of Russia's interference in the election wasn't strong enough to get rid of him.

While I think it does need to be pursued and that Comey needs to come clean about what he's been sitting on, I also know that attacks on other fronts also need to be pursued.

This is not divisive, it's necessary. We've got to get him out any way we can.
