THE WHITE HOUSE — President Donald Trump has sought advice on his strategy to turn around the war in Afghanistan from several Marines guarding the door of the White House, sources confirmed today.

"I don't know sir, maybe just like, bomb the shit out of them or something?" Cpl. Brian Wagner reportedly told the president after he was asked how to turn around the nearly-16-year-old war. White House aides said the president was receptive to the idea.

The Trump White House has for months debated plans for Afghanistan, with some favoring a small troop surge to break what is described as a stalemate, while others argue that Trump should completely remove American forces.
