For Trump, the Burden May Be Proving This Is Not the Moment His Critics Predicted
WASHINGTON — For three years, President Trump’s critics have expressed concern over how he would handle a genuine international crisis, warning that a commander in chief known for impulsive action might overreach with dangerous consequences.
In the angry
and frenzied aftermath of the American drone strike that killed Iran’s
top general, with vows of revenge hanging in the air, Mr. Trump
confronts a decisive moment that will test whether those critics were
right or whether they misjudged him.
“The
moment we all feared is likely upon us,” Senator Christopher S. Murphy,
Democrat of Connecticut and vocal critic of Mr. Trump, wrote on Twitter over the weekend.
“An unstable President in way over his head, panicking, with all his
experienced advisers having quit, and only the sycophantic amateurs
remaining. Assassinating foreign leaders, announcing plans to bomb
civilians. A nightmare.
