I wonder how the Repubs I used to hear praise Trump for being “anti war” feel now that he’s shown his whole ass
New evidence rarely changes sentiment in a cult.
Sad but true
“He kept us out of all the wars he didn’t get us into!”
Hell even Ron Paul would’ve been a marked improvement because as crazy as that dude was, he stood on business with the anti war thing
Ron Paul is a Confederate-nostalgic racist crackpot idiot. His phony libertarianism is even worse than the real thing, and the real thing is an economically illiterate cultish bag of simplistic bullshit.
Yeah unfortunately there really are no heroes in this story, I just acknowledged that being principled on being anti-war is better than whatever Trump is doing tbh
Difficult to know how they feel deep inside, but on the surface: dig their heels down even deeper. Claim they were for this all along. Attribute prophetic knowledge and foresight to dear leader. Necessity, not ideology. Etc.
Yeah, I can’t wait for my mom to figure out how to spin this one. She’s already hard on the “well we’re not AT WAR, so he’s still following his campaign promises” train.
bomb the shit out of Oman with what?
his full diapers?
He did make that AI video where he dropped shit from a plane on protestors, so guess you are probably right.
Ah the north Korea playbook
Let’s appreciate the facts:
- USA unable to compromise for any sort of peace deal
- Oman, the closest neighboring country wrt Strait of Hormuz makes deal with Iran so shipping can continue
- Trump interpretes this as interfering and threatens to bomb yet another country
And just like that he shits even more on decades of building US influence in the Middle East. As long as Bibi supports him I guess?
This guy is a dangerous idiot. This was known in 2016, in 2020 and in 2024. WTF is wrong with a substantial amount of the US American population? Well, I do know the answer to that. It’s the same here even if the percentages are still lower.
Combination of a large population of ass hats who will vote red no matter what, so long as the heathens on the left don’t win, and the corrupt DNC consistently shitting the bed on candidates, and Bidens senile ass not giving up the presidency early enough to show if Harris could have been a good president, which pretty much guaranteed a lot of people wouldn’t vote for her. She did nothing as VP (at least nothing that was reported on) and the cards were already stacked against her.
Don’t forget the vast majority of traditional and online media platforms being owned by Trump’s buddies.
The sheep are easily lead.
Of course they are, we’re all hand-fed a fine-tuned slurry of propaganda from day 0. Some people have personal experiences or peculiarities that lead them to cut against the mainstream in one direction or another, but you and I are no more special than your average normie Liberal or bog-standard Conservative at some essential, Immaterial level. We just got lucky.
Don’t get it in your head that you’re the Shepard standing tall over the herd, you’re just another sheep that happened to see past the slaughterhouse doors.
Check the stock market! Someone’s making bank.
I hate how likely it is that you are 100% correct.
I only think that because that’s what’s happened every other time he’s made that kind of ‘announcement’.
Didn’t he say he would bomb the shit out of Iran before ? This doesn’t seem like a very original threat
Nothing he does is original, that stupid maga shit he’s so proud of was just stolen from Reagan who stole it from iirc Johnson(?).
The Sun is a shit source and other better ones exist. For example: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy5dzk0ryzdo
The final final final v3.75 Strait of Hormuz deal (no really this time).
Did those guys in Oman say something to annoy Netanyahoo?
Netanyahu wants to US to destoy Iran even more. And why not? It’s not costing him anything. It’s the Iranians and a few US military people who are bleeding.
