Wonder why his best war buddy is noted for having ramped a ME war down in his first term, and didn’t exactly set the table for a neocon buffet??

Lindsey Graham was the first GOPe figure who endorsed Trump for a second term. That endorsement carried a lot of weight at the time and put Trump on the path to seal the nomination. Trump owes Graham and Graham holds a lot of sway and power in the Senate, like it our not.

Trump is more transactional than he is ideological.

Or is the president facilitating and not obstructing Graham's agenda?
What if I told you... it's the same agenda.

I don't think Trump truly has an agenda.

As someone else said ITT, he's transactional without any real ideology.

Fair point. I think the lesson is Trump has no problem being in the swamp he claimed to be out to drain.

I can't for the life of me understand how just 2 years ago this board was all in F Graham and his warmongering bullshite. Then Trump decides to bomb Iran, much to Graham and other's delight, and MAGA bros are just cool with it?


Politics has become a team sport.

If your side is Alabama and the other side is Auburn (pick your analogy) then you can easily justify anything your side does.

In this example, I’m just a fan of college football and I want the best outcome overall. I don’t care if Alabama or Auburn never win another game.

Where is the new endorsement of an "additional" neocon?


In the current dynamic, they are virtually all neocons with a few exceptions.

Why the 180?

None of those jokers are intelligent enough to use the full array of Israeli military equipment and weaponry.

We gone be soaking in some rays in Gulf Shores with feet buried in the sand when all that nonsense is going down. I’ll be laughing my asses off.

He’s a warmonger who would send you and your children, without a second thought, to some war zone in Africa if it meant the military contractor in his state improves its EBITDA by 1.2 percent.

For one, that’s a tad bit weird, that you went looking for something like that. Secondly, I’d hardly be able to live with myself if I truly meant something of that tone and tenor. Satire, my friend.

I wasn't looking for davyjones's posts.

I'm looking for something else and stumbled upon that.
