some are in the atlantic. so on the other side leaving today is a carrier strike group that has an additional seven destroyers. that takes a few days to steam across the atlantic. but when you look at what those destroyers can do, they can fire off the tomahawks. that s what the trump is saying are smart and. can get through syrian defenses. syria has a system that russia has. it didn t work last time knocking down the tomahawks in april of 2017. unclear if it would work this time. they have other assets. don t forget they are prosecuting a war in eastern syria bringing in a lot and flying those out from bases further south in the middle east. thank you for that. let s go back to the white house. kristin welker still standing by. the president went on a lament this morning about the u.s. relationship with russia. i m quoting here. our relationship with russia is worse now that be it has ever been. that includes the cold war.
