Just another excuse to dislike the most liberal Republican president of all time.

NO NEW WARS! NO NEW WARS! NO NEW WAR! We heard it over and over and over again. Here we are in a war that was not justified. Trump is trying to get a hold of the oil.

Replace “dust up” with “failure”.

Yeah it bothers me. It was a stupid plan. Because there was no real plan after sending bombs.

Our military might is not the question. Never was.

The political abilities of this admin are very weak and have caused damage to America.

Giving Iran a reason to think twice is one of the things Trump did right.




I admire how flexible and versatile MAGA talking points are. They can be really isolationist, and they can also be really neoconnish and globalist, like this one. Incredible!

Iran was a necessary endeavor, because of the Petro dollar; at least from the administration standpoint point of both parties. The Dems just paid them off, Trump didn’t want to do that.. But their willingness to sell oil in the yuan was a huge problem. If they got a bomb, much harder to deal with them, but make no mistake, this was about global oil and keeping our currency relevant. If they win this, no one will be complaining about today’s oil prices, cause it will be minuscule compared to what it will be.

Be honest with yourself.


Honestly?

I've always said the conflict between the West and Islam is inevitable, I still believe that. What I didn't like was Trump's timing for the strikes.

I'm not 100% sure the Rs would have held the whole of Congress after the midterms if the Iran strikes had not taken place but I do believe the Rs likely hold the Senate.

Let me continue to be honest. I'm not sure if the Rs holding all of Congress or the Senate would really be that impactful when you consider how ineffective they have been over the past 40-50 years when they have held both the White House and Congress. The DSA agenda seems to creep forward regardless of whether the DSA is in power or the Recucks.

I guess the a legit concern is with the DSA controlling the Senate they can hinder Trump from placing justices on the SC if the opportunity arises.

Good Times Y'all!!!!

I honestly believe that:

- Epstein
- Weed (yes, believe it or not)
- Eventually marginalizing DOGE like efforts

is what cost him

Just because a thing is unpopular doesn't mean it's wrong or didn't need to happen. Strong leaders understand this, unfortunately our nation continues to breed generations of weak minded and shallow minded fools that can no longer see past what's directly in front of them. What's in front of most is the propaganda pushed by the Marxist propaganda machine, the MSM.

Benji and Jared convinced him that attacking Iran would help overthrow the government and install the former Shah’s son. He probably was told it would happen between 6 to 8 weeks and it hasn’t worked out that way.

For our military folk who died, it certainly qualifies as a failure.
And btw, did you see the results of November midterms?
Trump did that
