Of course not. It is the Middle East.
Correct answer.
Regime survives, population pays in blood and Israel starts claiming Iran is 30 days from a nuke in about 8 months.

Are they actually being put on the ground or just being deployed to the area in case they're needed? Big difference. Seems more like a show of force.
There is a term for this, "mission creep".

If you actually care about the country you would be 100x more concerned about the midterm elections than you would be about what the frick is going on in Iran.
Iran is not a threat to the United States with or without a nuclear weapon. Like zero threat no matter how you want to spin it retroactively. If the Iranians want a nuclear weapon, they want it for security like North Korea. Not to mention we obviously have eyes and ears all over Iran through both human and technological sources. Again, Iran is minimal threat at best.
The future of the country depends on routing Democrats, not giving them a campaign for no reason at all.
Iran was fricked up, is fricked up and will still be fricked up for the next hundred years I promise you. All Trump did is needlessly bet everything on a regime change war by choice and it was a stupid choice.
Mindblowing stupid.
It's the John Bolton, Lindsey Graham foreign policy going back decades that was ridiculed here as recently as November 2024. Now it's brilliant?
I remember when Trump fired Bolton and said Bolton wanted us in war in Venezuela, Iran, North Korea.
I guess Bolton, who hasn't been right in 40 years, was the genius after all.
Jump from 1 to 2 is significant.
2 to 3 not so bad.
3-4+ like nothing at all.
So I've been told.

You think Trump voters that criticize the Iran action wish they would have voted for Harris?
You must be retarded.

Israel knows when anyone blows their nose in Iran but somehow Hamas was able to hide a complicated assault that likely took months to plan in complete secrecy. Kind of bizarre.

Looking more and more like this regime of butchers will survive.
Iranian population is going to pay a high price in blood.
And in 6 months Israel will be screaming Iran is 30 days from a nuclear weapon.

You on the same side as Jeb Bush, Lindsey Graham, John Bolton and Liz Cheney.
You think those are winners?

re: Rubio the favorite in the Mar-a-Lago club house to lead the 2028 GOP ticket

What accomplishments can JD tout?
Rubio is the Bush (George and Jeb), Cheney(Liz and Dick) candidate. He is the swamp.
As chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence he was among the ringleaders actively trying to undermine the first Trump administration.
He's a mole. A slightly better version of Mike Pence.
He would be a huge step back for the Republican Party.
Vance is better positioned to take the MAGA throne than Rubio.
Rubio is an interventionist. Despite the fervor seen even on this board for the Iran action, it is not America first.

Vance would crush Rubio almost as badly as Trump crushed Desantis.
The fact that a bunch of establishment money men would prefer Rubio is the least surprising thing I've heard all year.
This would be crushing news for Desantis though who surely would like to run again.

if he gets what he wants then Iran will no longer be sanctioned from the world market and prices will stabilize globally.
He should have saved this war until March of 2027, after the election. There was no urgent need to take this action now.
It's going to provide Democrats an endless supply of issues to draw their campaign around.
Higher gas prices is just one of those issues and they will not resolve before the election because the outcome in Iran will not be resolved before the election.

So you are ok if those frickers get a nuclear weapon and smuggle it into the country or develop missles to do the same? You are a fricking idiot.
The same one they have been one week away from for the last 30 years?
The idiot here is obvious and it's not me.
With the eyes we have on Iran the odds of them ever developing a nuclear weapon on their own is like zero percent.
And if they did, they wouldn't be any threat to the United States.
Do the North Korean or Pakistani nukes keep you up at night?
More Americans will die in this war then would ever die from an Iranian nuke.
You bought the Bolton, Bush Graham propaganda hook line and sinker.
Idiots who have been wrong about everything for 40 years

Shouldn't we want a leader who makes decisions based on the actual situation at hand
Yes, exactly. Trump did the opposite.
There is no threat to the United States from Iran. There was certainly no urgent need to launch a regime change war in Iran.
So in that sense, it was absolutely moronic politically.
The outcome of the elections in November are extremely critical to the future of the country.
The outcome was already in doubt. Just look at the history of midterm elections for the party in the White House. Not good.
Anyone claiming to know what Iran is going to look like in 3 or 4 months is absolutely lying. Trump has created a complete unknown.

It’s a small price to pay to keep our country safe.
This has to be a troll.
Safe from what?
Whatever you think of this operation, politically it was the dumbest thing Trump could have ever done.
In an election, you want control over events. All war or military operations are the opposite of that. Too high of a likelihood of diaster or unintended consequences at a minimum.
This action, and it's timing will turn out to be the dumbest thing Trump has ever done. A totally and completely unforced error like no one has ever seen.

That kid throwing for Belle Chase last night is the real deal.
Holy Cross bounces back tonight vs Belle Chase at home 7-1.
3rd game tomorrow back at Belle Chase.
Iran is a huge country . Mountain terrain with 90 million people.
We have a devasting force assembled but they will not be able to remove the regime with air power alone. They need the regular army to flip. If that doesn't happen be ready for mission creep.
This is going to be a mess.

Yeah, Trump shouldn't trust Thune as far as he can throw him. But the Save Act isnt enough. Trump needs the ability to make recess appointments.

Trump should tell Thune he will endorse Cornyn when the Save Act is on his desk. Also recess appointments.
Then endorse Paxton anyway. frick Thune.
