Yeah, no way a politician would do that, much less military folks with TDS.🤣

Talk to a “journalist” off the record and the information ends up being broadcast or written about somewhere, with no attribution as to who the source might be.
Poor little incel. Hug your blow up doll and you might feel better.
Jonathan Swift wrote, “When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign, that the dunces are all in confederacy against him.”
The Democrat struggles to find something to criticize with this op is really making Trump look smart.
A little book club lingo here.

Yes, I’m sure it was. Trump is notorious for his bizarre stream-of-consciousness ad libs. That didn’t sound like one of them.
Didn't you endorse grape jelly? I probably put you on ignore after that.You didn't even notice mine in the toast discussion.
Trump’s more transparent than generally viewed.
America first =
Loyalty =
Trump likes and respects strong leaders like Putin, Xi, Un, and the Ayatollah of Iran.
What doesn’t fit in the above equation?
“Death to America.”
POTUS has a constitutional duty to protect the US. Of course Trump takes away Iran’s ability to cause our death. After all, Trump has to respect the Ayatollah’s threat.

Even if Iran were to acquire nuclear weapons, I doubt they’d ever acquire any delivery mechanism that might threaten American territory.
Of course, they might arm terrorists with one, etc. etc. You can’t count any of that out.
But it’s the destabilizing nature of a nuclear Iran that makes it such an intolerable prospect.
In real life, though, how sure are we that's true? Indian and Pakistan have had nukes for years, and nothing has happened. You'd think if there were ever going to be a hot-headed nuclear exchange, that would be the location.
Israel already has nukes. If Iran gets them too, so what? Just one more cold war to add to the list of cold wars? Maybe it actually results in more peaceful relations, because Israel hesitates before firing missiles into Tehran.
Of course, I absolutely do not want a nuclear Iran. I'm very satisfied with a non-nuclear Iran. Just saying, how sure can we be that it would actually be destabilizing? Just food for thought, is all.
Iran started firing more missiles 13 minutes after the ceasefire took effect. Be’er Sheva was hit. Others as well. I’ve seen 8 confirmed civilian deaths.
And that is the least surprising news of the day.
Trump gave them six hours to stop shooting. That's not a misinterpretation this time.
Actually:
Trump announces Israel and Iran have agreed to cease-fire ending ‘12 Day War’
President Donald Trump announced in a Monday evening post on Truth Social that Israel and Iran have agreed in principle to a ceasefire.

That staggered timeline is the same thing FOX broke LIVE with the VP...
As I said in another thread, I fully expect both of them to break the deal but you can't lay that off on Trump..., at least he made an effort to wrap this up...

OK. But it’s kind of a stretch to drop a series of 30k lb bombs on a country and then expect them to just stand down.
That's Exactly how you do it...
They have one alternative: Total Annihilation or a Cease Fire ...
Gee..., which is the better move...?
You're assuming that we -- or Israel, or some other unnamed force -- is prepared to execute "total annihilation" of Iran. And I don't think we are (or should be).
I fully believe that DJT wants to be done with the commitment of US military force. But I doubt that Iran is anywhere near a point where they'd consider something resembling capitulation.
Maybe I'm wrong about that. I have read where their missile stockpile (cruise and ballistic) began at around 2,000 units and has been depleted pretty significantly -- maybe down to around 500-600. But I'm sure that's just somebody's guess. And I don't put much stock in those.
That is food for thought.
Problem is, how many of those countries have leaders that say death to fill in the blank?
And how many of those countries have an ideology that worships martyrdom?
And if your tiny land area is 1/75 of the other country, is it worth risking the gamble?
All that said, I personally don’t see how Israel can survive the next 50 years. Israel has committed so many acts of violence against their neighbors that they’re doomed in any reading of history.
The comments on his way to Marine 1? I don't think they speak to his cleverness. I think they speak to his incredulity that other national leaders won't simply bow down and do whatever he tells them to. Been an ongoing problem for him.
Though I agree with you on the rest of the post.... there's been no signs of him ever being clever. Impulsive ...
