    I believe extending a cease fire is a good thing not a TACO move.

    For me being a veteran. Anything that keeps our troops out of harms way is better that the alternative.

    This is worst case scenario cuz the Iranians still control the strait which means oil prices will remain high as there's 4 million barrels of oil not being shipped daily. The Iranians know Trump is desperate and won't budge on any of the core demands. Trump wants the Iranians to bail him out which they won't do

    DoD is claiming they’re escorting Iranian oil tankers in Indian Ocean, and ship-trackers are confirming

    if those were destined to China …

    It's been obvious since about week two.

    Iran doesn't have to win, they just have to persevere.

    Trump looks incredibly weak and stupid. More than usual, even.

    Honestly, as much as I hate the mullahs, making the entire White House team wait and then non-chalantly declaring “I guess the ceasefire deadline will pass then” was the biggest punch I’ve ever seen the White House take in my life.

    They literally just dared him to attack them and he had to pretend he’s extending the deadline for other reasons.

    Basically: your move big boy.

    It's funny how he keeps making these threats and the Iranians don't flinch once lol he looks so pathetically weak. They're all mocking him at this point

    Exactly! The only difference is that Trump isn't homeless but that doesn't make him any more mentally sound. The crazy man has been ranting and raving a whole lot of BS non-stop on his Truth Social all week.

    He kills me when he says they are losing 500 million a day by his blockade, yet we are spending a billion a day to block the strait. Make that make sense as a win.

    What are we up to now, 50 billion? That doesn't even count long term replacement costs for weapons, aircraft, etc.., rebuilding and repairing bases damaged, or long term disability, etc to troops injured or killed already, and any more at risk, or expenditures to come. It also doesn't count the harm and inflation it's causing countries around the world. We should have never come back to bomb again in the first place. This is such a costly and ill planned war.
