In the comments on the MSN story about this, there's a whole flock of flying monkeys who say either (1) they totally understood what President Trump was saying, because they can read minds; or (b) "military operation" is a new form of adjective that apparently doesn't need a noun.

I gently pointed out to one of them that his defense of Trump's unconstitutional utterance made no fucking sense.
