    I wouldn't say this never works, but when was the last time it did work? They might be able to tear crap down, but when has a US backed rebel group ever managed to establish a stable and legitimate government?

    you can count on it always being somethings else's fault .

    Trump wouldn't even file for no-fault divorce. It was his Ex's fault. They were crazy !1!!

    Trump has the predictability of a Harden/ MDA offense .

    Is it his fault ( NOO !) will they shoot a 3 ( YES ! )

    There was no way to know this when those DOGE boys were running amuck and the firings took place. A small case of bad luck it seems. It's just not cost effective for the US to maintain a cadre of expert foreign affairs officers and civil servants.

    Trump is literally changing the world for the better for decades to come and liberals are complaining that US travelers abroad aren't getting onto their return flights fast enough. LOL. Don't miss the forest for the trees, amigos. Win the war decisively, reshape the geopolitical landscape in our favor, and move on to the next mission. It's that simple. Don't spend hundreds of billions like Biden on endless, no-win wars. Accomplish your objective and move on. Free the Iranian people from their evil, religious zealot leadership and end the terrorism threat to the region and to the USA. Work alongside our allies in the region and Europe (who are supporting us) and end the resistance. Play to win.


    GOOD DAY

    Trump Goes on Wild Posting Spree to Try to Shift War Blame / TACO


    TACO has reared its ugly head again!

    Trump is playing a game of hypotheticals, on his social media platform, and then thanked himself in the third person as part of an attempt to deflect blame for his strikes on Iran.

    I don't think Taco specifically implies to this action.
    Taco is more applying a tariff and repealing it after he gets punched back in the nose.

    He is waist deep in all going on in Iran.
    Deflection but not TACO.
    That's all.

    Just a thought but I dont think gaslighting us with Bush era propaganda about regime change and nation building is going to work very well this time. No one is buying any of this.

    We literally have the US military telling our Frontline soliders that Trump has been sent by Jesus for a bigger cause. Think about how batshit crazy that is

    Tehran is a huge city. I'm guessing in most corners it feels like life as usual. Not Baghdad 2003. Plus I'm sure most Iranians believe the US is only going after military targets outside the city. I mean Trumpers keep posting videos of Iranians celebrating in the streets so if there's celebrations going on then it must not feel that unsafe.

    Tehran isn't alone in that as well. I've seen many videos of people just walking around the major shopping areas in Dubai like nothing is going on when Iranian drone strikes on tourist locations would be much more likely one would think.

    So I think there is a false sense of security in many cities in the region because the war is so widespread that it probably feels far away.... till it's not.

    It's actually very on-brand for the oligarchy: "Don't have your own private jet and private security force? Sucks to be you, I guess. Wouldn't know exactly, or I don't remember what it was like. How do you even travel, bro?"

    Hey now. They supported the proto-taliban against the USSR! :D:eek: #neverforget #wolverineswithlongbeards!

    Buy yeah, otherwise kinda drawing a blank. I guess a couple of "wins" in the mid-20th century in Latin America, if you consider military dictatorships stable.

    I think the comment stands. Who cares if the bombs are a mile, five miles, 10 miles away? I think it's fair to cancel your outdoor play date. STAY INSIDE.
