Raising legitimate objections isn't the same as panic. I think you actually know this but yet you still persist with the rhetoric. It's of course good news that Trump realizes ground forces would be bad.

I agree. No boots on the ground for the USA.

Is introducing ground forces ever not bad? Would anyone think otherwise, whether it be D or R, average Joe or President? Folks are greatly oversimplifying this entire situation and discussion.

US troops going to Iran was never an option. Everytime Trump does literally anything, the concern trolls run wild crying about how they no longer support Trump, even though they never did. US troops being deployed to Iran was just another fantasy the concern trolls came up with.

What are they going to do if they no longer support Trump? This is a non issue.

The only time to put boots on the ground is if you mean to occupy. You can’t occupy crazy.

This isn’t Japan or Germany and if we had not had the bomb Japan would have been a bloodbath.

Its mostly out of his hands once he bombs them.

We have thousands of troops nearby who are surrounded by groups who will side with Iran.

If 20 US soldiers in Iraq are blown up as a response to our unprovoked bombing of Iran do you really think Trump won't be forced to respond?

I certainly can’t disagree with that.

We will lose the midterms badly, Trump will be impeached and a true lame duck, and JDV will be severely diminished for 2028.

I think doing ANYTHING there is a bad idea. If Israel wants to take out Iran, put together a coalition willing to work on it. Why in the everliving frick does it always have to be us?

Trump learned nothing from his first term. He'll learn it when the GOP loses the midterms and he gets impeached another 5 times.

The chatter has been funny of late.
All based on him not following his stance on Iran.

The only people that have ever said anything about ground forces in Iran are the Panicans and Sky Screamers without any knowledge or iota of proof. Knee jerk hysteria

Its hard to fathom how naive so many of you are. All it will take is ONE suicide bomber ANYWHERE in the world to draw us into a hot war.

And what is the point if we just bomb Iran? They'll just come back the same in a few years.

lol Democrats wont win a national election in 20 years - they are that bad - and honestly giving Vance a head start would be a gift to the GOP.

That's assuming the US bombs them, the leadership dies and they capitulate. Which i guess could happen but l what if Iran retaliates, and is able to sink a couple aircraft carriers, maybe blow up a US base or two in the region. Or Block hormuz and create a serious global inflation event. Things could easily escalate and then boots on the ground becomes much more conceivable.
