    Input question

    Let’s run a play place scenario if President Trump bombs ran in the next two weeks and give a play-by-play on how this situation will play out. I don’t wanna hear editorial comments or anything like this all I want to play-by-play of assets in the region missiles, defense aircraft carriers, destroyers, and what will happen next when each system gets underway and the bombing gets underway from Tomahawk missiles SM threes SM twos SM 6EA growlers. And so on.
