    Don't forget right before his 8pm deadline where he threatened to wipe them off the map he used back channels to ask Pakistan to desperately get a ceasefire. Iranians were ready for whatever was coming and called his bluff.

    He has no more leverage and the Iranians won't back down. He's ****ed himself

    It's what makes these videos mocking him funny. Nobody here in the media has the balls to say half that stuff, even if it's true.

    My boy said dealing with irgc is like dealing with the nazis. Making a deal with hitler.

    Iranians went from loving trump a month ago, to now hating him.

    Trump doesn't give a fck about the Iranian people which is what I was telling you at the beginning of this thread. He just wants to find a way to make money off the ordeal which is why he asked for a cut of the tolls the IRGC are charging for safe passageway.

    Yall are going to wake up one day to the reality trump is just a crook who wants to make money. He has no morals

    Correct. People need to be cautious about these characters. I’m willing to bet nearly all of them will vote for Trump or whoever is on the ticket in 2028 and tell their audience nonstop that voting for the Democrat will be the end of the world.

    They know their audience will not all the sudden become libs who watch art films and eat avocado toast. My guess is half of them will fall back in line before the month of May.

    How do you square this with the recent post that all is needed for the Dems to change their message somewhat?

    WRT to Netanyahu one thing interesting was though 93% of Jewish Israelis supported the war, till missiles started getting through, Bibi's polls did not go up as he probably expected.

    History would suggest Nook could be right on the big crises that have typically been needed to. break out of political stagnation. One thing is clear a run of the mill corporate Dem or Repug will not break us out of this morass.

    15% of Trump voters desperate for relief took what they thought was a big chance by voting once or even twice for that weird Black Guy Barak Obama hoping he could help them somehow , but when Obama turned out to be a moderate black Clintonite they lost hope.,The Dems further aggravated things by preferring Hillary and Biden to the other change candidate Sanders. A crucial portion of the white working class then went for the dangerous showman Trump who promised big change. and to smash the status quo..

    The issue with white working class voters that you Lefties will never grasp if your life depended on it is MAGA voters vote MAGA cuz of culture wars and their hatred of LGBTQ/minorities. Look at @Salvy @tinman who spend all their time on these forums obsessing about gay folks or Trans people. His voters don't give a **** about minimum wage or whatever issue you think they do.

    Biden literally bailed out 60k teamsters pension in the largest pension bailout in American history and what happened afterwards? The teamsters president spoke at the RNC ND his members voted Trump cuz of culture wars.

    Youre completely disconnected from reality.

    Yeah, but he posts that to make his cult believe all Hatians are violent, even though someone is murdered every 30.5 minutes in our country. He hand picks the ones he wants to spew hate against, not all. What's interesting is that he sure as hell didn't post this kind and of outrage when Pelosi's husband was almost beat to death by a hammer. Nope. He only picks and chooses who to be outraged about depending on the political party, skin color, or sexual preference of the victims and their attackers.

    Anyone should be outraged over violent attacks, and that includes all of them. Trump just chooses who to be outraged against, and stays mute on all the rest. That's the sick mentality of that psycho. He really doesn't give a damn about anyone but himself to be honest. When he does decide to post things about violence it's usually his way if spreading hate to suit his political agenda.

    It's plain to see Trump is a demagogue. He wouldn't be in office today if he wasn't. Those that brush it off and look the other way are no better than the most vile, cousin f'ing racists out there.

    He only has a couple of tools in the toolbox (bluster and money to spend on lots of lawsuits). He has no patience, can't think, and is bereft of values. He is ego-driven and when he take a psychic hit to that ego, all he can do is to lash out. I'm afraid we will soon have an episode where he breaks and says, eff it, do the invasion.

    What needs to happen and what will happen are two very different things. The Democrats have to win elections first, they need to pick their battles and move away from some positions that are out of date.

    Democrats need to pivot hard to the center on culture wars to win back working class voters. They can start by crack down on conversion therapy for trans teenagers, stop allowing trans folks in female sports, and pivot to Clinton era of immigration. Build a border wall and stop illegal immigration but expand legal immigration for needed industries. The idea that democrats aren't leftie enough is so delusional that's it's unreal the bubble lefties live in @glynch.

    87% of voters thought kamala was too left. Socialists/lefties make up less than 5% of the American population.
