It is an important moment but isis is not the threat that it was a few years ago. so in some ways this is kind of maybe nail the coffin shut or i don t know if that s the right analogy, but also it has never been quite the same in the american imagination as al qaeda for obvious reasons. it did not execute the largest attack on the american mainland ever. this is the biggest moment for him but i don t think it s a defining moment for him. the trump campaign is fund raising off this. your reaction to that. well, you know, the whole process here as others have noted, is so different than what we have seen from previous presidents. the language he used in describing it. the detail that he gave about it. the fact that he talked about viewing it in live, you know, live time real time on the video screens. all of this is kind of of a piece with the way he has approached the presidency, much less reserved, much less distanced. you know, much less a refusal to ....
