A familiar pivot. When Trump can't accomplish something we instead giving him credit for "exposing" something. Except it's something that everyone already knew so literally nothing happened.

Are you aware what just one Apache or A-10 will do to an entire fleet of their stupid looking small boats? Thats waving a steak in front of a hungry tiger.

300-400 fast boats at one time would be a target rich environment to my thinking.

Dear Donald,
Let us end this crap now. Either put Iran back into the stone age, or come home.


Me.

You have to have an extra copy of chromosome 21 to believe this. You are really dumb.

Incoming mental gymnastics posts of:

“I’m willing to pay $7 for a gallon of gas if it means Iran can’t nuke North America” which was never going to happen regardless. What a total god damn disaster this has become.

frick this Administration that said they were America First. They are anything but and this proves it. Iran was ZERO threat to America.

Trump needs to get through this Summit mtg before he gets active in Iran again
Or maybe the summit defeats the need to.

No end in site. Trump’s been lying from the outset about Iran “begging” for a deal.




Trump is great at deals. I think even this deal is difficult because you can't deal with crazy people.

Maybe the plan is to keep it shut down and force China/EU/UK/India to step up and pressure Iran.

If it doesn’t hurt, then they have no skin in the game. Only pain for the US is short term fuel prices and associated transportation cost on products. Other will run low on gas

We escort US flagged ships to show them how it is done.

Trump usually doesn't negotiate deals with an endless stream of individuals that are assassinated by his business partner so this is proving to be uniquely challenging for him

Love how the clowns don’t think the navy isn’t taking care of it. Pretty pathetic and ignorant.

How do you want them to “take care of it”?

The Iranians have dug in and mobile anti ship missiles and drones that our own intel agencies say we’ve only gotten less than half of.

Meanwhile China who is the only other stakeholder who could force a deal has oil stockpiled and is able to wait it out while the rest of the world grinds to an economic halt and has people rioting.

This was a colossal FU.

Hard to know what is the truth since Iran and our fake news media are on the same level of trust.

This little adventure for Israel has been a mistake though. The good news is if we can wrap this up it will be forgotten by midterms. So we need to wrap this and move back to where they have to discuss the domestic wins, deport the illegals faster, actually have the useless DOJ arrest someone other than a special forces guy making a bet, and start to hammer H1Bs that got unfair housing and are depressing American wages.

Trump is unpredictable. Sometimes that's an advantage sometimes it backfires like it has in Iran. Iran is not an example of 8D intergalactic chess its an example of 2D stupidity. His supporters will never admit this on here even if they think it. You can't negotiate with religious fanatics who will fight until the last man is standing. You have to totally decapitate them and we don't seem willing to do that and we shouldn't because it would require a long term ground invasion. Trump should have never let off the gas with the bombing and destruction until he was 100% sure he could get some form of deal.

Everybody always has a plan. Until SHTF, plans are always bulletproof.
