The worry, from sane people like me is that Trump would be unwilling to apply more military pressure against Iran because it's an unpopular move. So far so good. Need to finish the job. The original goal as stated by Trump was absolute surrender of Iran, that is my expectation

---

I'm still not sure what his vision of an end game is, but I do subscribe to the notion that this is less about Iran, its nuclear ambitions not withstanding, than it is about how Trump is handling China.

The end game obviously was to replace the Ayatollah with an even crazier Ayatollah, ensure that same regime will definitely be planning revenge as soon as they're able for killing a bunch of their leaders, hand them (a.k.a. "unfreeze") $20 BILLION to pretend the nuclear issue is solved, and of course have no effect on China whatsoever. Assuming Iran doesn't just say YOLO and decides to keep holding the strait hostage, giving them significantly more power in the region than they had. Winning!!!

Lol, remember how long you guys (and Trump) howled about Obama's Iran nuclear deal unfreezing $1.7 billion... "OMG HE'S FUNDING TERRORISTS!!1". So now maybe we'll have a significantly stupider nuclear deal for 12 times as much! How many terrorists will that fund? I'm sure you won't say a peep about it.

At least Trump managed to lose a Middle East war in record time (a month?), so we hopefully won't have to drag this out for 20 years.

Lose a Middle East war. Lol. What kind of mentally ill liberal ****** do you have to be to say that?

Bring back asylums. Smapty needs a home.

Yep! We bombed them to dust and still lost the war. Because Trump (and you) are unbelievable morons, and we're all being dragged along while you learn the hard way how things actually work.

Oh wow, you mean Iran can panic the entire shipping industry and choke the entire world economy on a whim with 3 guys, a case of beer, and a small boat full of explosives any time they want?! Who could have ever known that?!

I guess your alternate reality news isn't showing you how much Trump is bending over backwards to kiss their ass now, hoping they'll play nice?

There is a war happening right now in space. @FBIDirectorKash hinted about it when I talked with him in 2023.

I would agree with you that there is an aspect to this war which involves eliminating all possibility of Chinese influence in the Middle East. But I do genually believe that Trump sees the threat of a Nuclear Iran to the world and that job isn't done yet. Progress has been made for sure though, great progress.

Newsom PAC bought thousands of memoir copies about his hardships, juicing sales

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/newsom-pac-bought-thousands-memoir-copies-about-his-hardships-juicing-sales.amp
- - -
"Gavin Newsom's 'bestseller' memoir just got the ultimate California treatment: his PAC dropped $1.56 million of donor cash to buy 67,000 free copies and mail them to anyone who donated any amount," Hilton posted to X on Thursday. "That's two-thirds of all print sales. Nothing says 'Young Man in a Hurry' like rigging your own book numbers with political slush funds while California burns."
