Haass: "Unpredictability can provide a tactical advantage, but it is also a strategic liability."

What credibility does Haass and his ilk track record indicate for him to make this authoritative statement? these people have had the run of the roost for decades and you cant say that things are going just great...

I think Trump would probably disagree... Trump has had a lot of material success in his experience a lot more than Haass or any of the CFR academics...

Trump at least deserves a chance to try it his way for a change... see what happens... screw these academics..
