Iran War | Political & Economic Impacts

[Patb78]

We're going to be damned lucky if American soldiers aren't sent in to fight and possibly die to clean up and try to fix this completely unnecessary disaster that Trump 2.0 has gotten us into. And if that happens I hope all of those Trump voters whose sons and daughters are being placed in harm's way for no damned good reason are happy with their candidate choices a couple of years ago.

If we send troops in, some will die. What a fucked up mess.

And Fox viewers are so damn gullible (and want to believe stuff like this is true so badly) that they'll buy it.

Markets open in a bit, time to tease a deal:

He would probably love to tack it on to his trip to China. Don’t underestimate how important it is to him to have a signed agreement of some kind with Iran before heading to his state visit to China.

Will the trip to China still happen? If he had any competent advisors around him, I would say no to prevent him from being in such a weak and pathetic position. Oh well.

So we have gone from "Iran will unconditionally surrender" to "will Iran please, please accept our surrender?"

Maybe its too early to point this out: but didn't for weeks if not months 90% of the posters on this forum predict that this was where this war was headed?

So, this is apparently the plan....

Trump spent billions, fucked up gas prices and lost American lives to get back to the point where Obama had gotten us, plus we are giving Iran more cash back?

Not sure of the cash you speak of, but you can 100% be sure that this does not end without Iran gaining money, whether it be release of their frozen funds, Strait tolls, or outright reconstruction and reparation aid from somebody.

Crime after Crime.

Pretty much. Yesterday was another TACO Tuesday.

On Monday Trump threatens to blow the country of Iran up...while escorting ships through the strait. That didn't work as well as intended.

Hegseth yesterday morning indicated that Operation Epic Fury was sort of on pause while Operation Freedom (escorting ships continues. Sec. Rubio suggests something similar. Then last night on Truth Social Trump surrenders - says the war is now over (forget the nuclear obliteration and regime change objectives)...and the objective now is to somehow reset the Strait of Hormuz to before the war and some JCPOA agreement. lol


...and meanwhile Israel goes Gaza style on southern Lebanon - a sovereign country that would like to cooperate and remove Hezbollah and IDF.

Thank goodness the Iran war is ending with a new regime dedicated to world peace and mutual prosperity, a strait of hormuz open to all with no risk of closure ever again, complete disbandment of their nuclear program, removal of ability to ever create missiles or drones again, increased love of Muslims everywhere for the United states, increased worldwide respect for US diplomacy and moral standing, demonstration that our military can achieve any goal without actually using the army, and immediate return to the good times and normalcy in the UAE, Dubai and other 'fun muslim' places.

Thanks be to trump.

Let's just not forget, as we learned on here yesterday, this is all the Democrats' fault.

IKR? Trump 2.0 is a clown tornado of chaos and destruction.
