Still waiting on the decoder ring to arrive, but it reads to me as if he had no idea what was going on in Syria when he advocated minding our own business, and now that he's paying attention and shoulders responsibility
Yeah, I listened to some of that later yesterday, and at one point he actually said something like, "I'm responsible for this now."
Came across not so much like he had no idea what was going on in Syria before, as that he just didn't care- it was some remote abstraction that just got real for him.
Even so, his "you'll see" answer when asked what he's going to do about it still means the same thing: "Nothing, probably, because I have no idea what I can or should do about it." He hasn't masterminded some secret plan to carry out justice for 100 people killed in a chemical attack in Syria anymore than he has a secret plan to defeat ISIS.
"People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realize how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world."
