Trump’s Iran Fiasco Takes Humiliating Turn as Leaks Grow More Damning

Also to distract from the discussion about how he molested children.

To me, donnie was always just a washed-up never-was with a big mouth. A rapey and racist failson. And that's before he was given that reality TV show.

He's only devolved since.

Even worse, Trump's doing the bidding of a genocidal foreign leader who had been trying to get the US to do this for decades. Trump was the only president ignorant and gullible enough to fall for it

And then failing to realize that purpose.

As pointless bullshit wars go, this one's pretty mid.

Sounds like they raised a stupid kid

I clicked to see which leaks we were talking about here

I just want him to shit himself as he succumbs to cholesterol poisoning on live TV.

The price of Russian oil is all that really matters. It doesn't look like it's going to even help them though. That and getting the Abraham Lincoln away from the Baltic.

The extremely non strategic retreat from the Middle East is kind of wild though. I'd have thought Trump was the very definition of blood for oil.

It does seem like they've gotten away with six months more than they expected to.

And avoid his degeneracy being truly known. That is his biggest motivator. The "trump/epstein" brand is here to stay. We just need to put out all of his deflecting fires beforehand.

The war just needs to last until the midterms

"These are not 'squirters' getting through," the service member added,

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

All of the photos are undated. I'm wondering if someone has been sitting on them for a while.

How many AWACS do the US forces have?

Undated photo of plane damaged by Iranian strikes at Prince Sultan AFB, Saudi Arabia

Damaged lol

Wasn't Iran's military complete destroyed like a year ago as well? According to the white house of course.

They want to win a lot more than we do. War is just business to us, no one is hyped up about this. For them tho, this is an opportunity decades in the making.

That made me chuckle too. A fine example of unintentional humour.

They still support. They just don't have any quips to say when the economy has so obviously gone bad.

Demilitarization is just a (admittedly big on account of how counter to the long running paradigm it would be) single step.

The next 5 presidents will have a lot of work to do over the next 20 years...in the as of now extreme hypothetical thought exercise where the country is steered towards actually being an honest member of the global community.

This hypothetical can't even happen as long as the fascism is on active display mind you, so that means it would have to be thrown back into the shadows (most likely imo) or finally fully eradicated (I fucking wish).

But after all that, the next 20 years of US history would need to be a lot of demilitarization, a lot less meddling in the affairs of other countries with the sole goal of "How does the US come ahead of absolutely everyone?" and a hitherto unknown for practically the entire country's history period of "What do we negotiate to make a better world in which the US thrives because the world was made better?".

In addition to a lot of work and money spent to recoup any semblance of soft power back, and a lot of loss in easy political wins.

The soft power can't even begin to pretend to be restored without a lot of spending on public education and I don't just mean schooling for children.

Extensive outreach to deprogram the 'might is right' and other assorted fascist/racist bullshit out of the population would be required, because it's easy as shit for other countries to see when there's no political will in the American people to force its leaders to carry through with something.

Fuck, I could stay here all day, but it's also kind of depressing. It's not impossible, none of it.

But the hurdles to fix this fuckery? Hella.

Maybe with some dragon gold hoards in the people's Treasury, and some nice and fancy dragon scale armor, it would be easier. Grinding boss fights for XP tends to make the journey easier 🗡️.

That probably should be one of the earlier steps and sure would show the world some commitment.

We only need $100 billion a year at most to maintain a small standing military for homeland defense.

At this point we need to end all overseas BS and let the rest of the world sort it out. We have a $40 trillion deficit. We don’t need space lasers.

I’m all for electing someone who puts this guy in jail

Just a reminder that you can't. Or rather, you cannot elect someone who puts him in jail. That requires ⅔ of Congress, specifically the Senate. So you're not talking about one race for one office, you are talking about 538 races. Or, well, more like 100 I suppose. But all 538 because you need both chambers.

Considering that next leader might have tk ask for permission, there is no guarantees US can rebuild the bases.

Might have already been rented out by Chinese.

I keep repeating that I assumed American empire will fall but that it will fall during my lifetime and in this manner... Not in my wildest dreams.

The pride of an empire will not let a president get jailed. It would also open a Pandora box where none of the previous war criminal American politicians will be safe from jail

here, for your wallet:

It’s already more unpopular than Vietnam.

If the USA invade it will definitely be at least twice worseesrow a year than Vietnam

Is that Kash Patel's son?
