I’m pretty fricking sick of his shite regarding Iran. I’m not sick of the administration’s shite as a whole, I’m sick of his shite.

Do we have any doubt that Iran will carry out drone strikes on oil tankers the day after this is agreed to and signed?

How many times do these people have to show you who they are? Unfortunately, Trump has painted himself into a corner on this one.

Its so absurd at this point, I believe these kind of statements serve a purpose in fighting the enemy.

Announcing publicly could be to see what kind of noise comes out of Iran. We still arent sure all parties over there agree. So maybe this is his way of getting info out, and seeing who replies

So sick of this. They will honor an agreement long enough to maybe take a piss. Just put them in the stone age and be done with it.

If not for Joe Biden, Trump wouldn’t have had to set the world right and bomb Iran for threats they’ve made since Seinfeld was still on air.

If this had all happened under any other president- republican or democrat- Trump would have criticized it loudly and often.

I can hear it now-

“This would have never happened if I were president. It was stupid. Iran would be nuclear free and would never have closed the strait. The only reason Iran did it is because they don’t respect ‘xyz’ but they know better with me. I wouldn’t put up with their nonsense and they know it”

The reason he’s being taken seriously is because the rumors are that the agreement includes tolling. Anyone can reach an agreement by giving in to the other’s demands.


This is all the US’ creation. Can’t imagine what the UAE and Saudi are thinking about right now…

That would force the US to regain trust and develop allies in the Middle East after destroying credibility.

My retirement accounts can’t take much more of this crap.

DOW and S&P hit all time highs today. NASDAQ is just a few hundred points off its all time high. My investment portfolio has never been higher. What the frick are you doing wrong?

Maybe you're just one of those people that buys high and sells low? Maybe just a complainer?
A lot of things to be bitching about, 401K investments shouldn't be one of them.

Blah blah blah. Heard it all before. I’m a Trump supporter through and through but no one believes this shite anymore. Don’t stop bombing them till a month AFTER they beg you to stop. THEN and only then will any “peace deal” happen. He’s just giving them time to move shite around to new hiding places.

I quit believing Trump when he said he didn't have sex with Stormy Daniels when it was apparent to even Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles he did.


Curious, did you stop believe Bill Clinton over the Monica "activity"?

It’s funny that the new objective of this conflict is just to hopefully get things back to the way they were before we started it
So, every friend, advisor, politician, military brass or IC official who stated that ‘this was not the way to go’ and have subsequently been ignored, pushed out, resigned/vilified…frick it, it is what it is. The military has destroyed a shite ton of stuff including their nuclear and military capabilities. Claim a ‘W’ and roll out FFS.
