[War] Trump surrenders to Iran in a humiliating defeat

It was too late when he won a 2nd term. He can burn it down for all I care and he seems hell bent on doing just that but make MAGA feel it the most.

 

Just long enough for some people connected to the administration to make a lot of money.

 

What a crew. FDR, Marshall, and Eisenhower they ain't.

 

More like Mo, Larry, and Curly.

 

Iran wants to make a deal ... very badly

 

I'd feel a lot better if Jared and Barron were there.

 

Next Trump is going say Iran never existed.

 

You don't get tired of this? Why even keep up with a corrupt grifter? You know what's going to occur and are powerless to stop it.

 

The DOJ, CFTC and SEC are on top of it.

The next administration needs to not forget this and prosecute every single one of those insider trading.

 

Trump is stupid enough to self inflict the US with another `Nam.

 

the corruption is so blatant and out in the open now…they don’t care about keeping it on the low anymore

And why would they? Nothing is going to happen to them

instead of trying to steal things from your house when you’re not there or away on vacation, they’re just coming in while you’re eating dinner and ransacking the place no mask on no nothing then casually walking out the front door

 

He and Hegseth have already committed war crimes bombing a school of young girls. They don't care, and threats to blow up the country if they don't get everything they want is their way of negotiating.

This quote from that post about the straight being closed popped out at me...

"They’re helping us without knowing, and they are the ones that lose with the closed passage, $500 Million Dollars a day! The United States loses nothing."

Nothing? Seriously you crazy lying fool, you are really underestimating the cost of this war, on top of lives already lost, and injuries to our troops because you just had to come in and start bombing at Bibi's urging. Every single day you keep adding another billion or so, while also risking the lives of our troops, or exposing them to toxic chemicals and debilitating effects down the road.

We committed roughly 80% of its JASSM-ER stealth cruise missile inventory to the Iran fight, pulling stockpiles from the Pacific to feed it. The conflict significantly depleted U.S. supplies of Tomahawk and Patriot missiles, THAAD interceptors and drones.

This war could cost the American taxpayer $1 trillion over the next decade, when all costs are figured in. Also compared to wars like Iraq, we are borrowing to finance this war at higher rates, on top of a much larger debt base.

The interest costs alone will add billions of dollars to the total cost of this war. And unlike the upfront costs, these are costs we are explicitly passing on to the next generation.

Meanwhile, this conflict allowed China to bolster its diplomatic leverage, clean-energy muscle and intelligence on the U.S. military — all without firing a shot or spending a dollar.

Many people are calling me the King of Persia. My good friend Dastan said he would honored if that were the case, but I don't know. Should I be the king of persia, folks? Would that make Gaston happy? Be out guest, be our guest. Great song, but we can't have guests anymore, folks.

 

Islamabad?

 

Bellicose on the weekends, but when the markets open on Mondays, we are close to a deal. Rinse, repeat.
