    If only he’d blame the one person truly responsible for this colossal embarrassment. Netanyahu.

    He made Trump look like a pathetic, easily manipulated fool. The only way Trump could possibly save face at this point, would be to completely cut Israel off from all US support. (wink, wink)

        Who’s more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?

        I’d love to get an answer to that from the MAGAts who put Trump in power in the first place.

      Mainly because that’s what he is

      Trump made Trump look like a pathetic, easily manipulated tool. The other fascist Netanjahu used that. Trump could only somehow save face by stepping down. But we know it won’t just happen

        Why doesn’t Nathan Yahoo put boots on the ground? Rough Iran a little bit. You know? A couple of nukes for good measure?

        -drops nukes

        Chatgpt continues: Don’t forget to pull out your troops before dropping the…

        Ah yes, since you dropped your nukes while your troo…each person would want a turn, so it’s best to just lean on a bed or couch and drop trouser. It will feel a little cold going in. But that’s why I suggested to pull the troops out first and then nuke several times.

      No need to wink, you’re not far off there. He needs to put Israel in it’s place, and that’s likely the only way to do that.

      We’ve shogged through so much bullshit and corruption in this country that we’ve made it all the way back to sanity.

      TACO, though. He won’t do it.

    Manic, Meltdown

    also see “unhinged”, bizarre, gibberish, confused etc.

    I bet journalists have lists of adjectives stored somewhere and one of them is labeled Trump.

      His dementia would have to severely deteriorate his mind to the point that he was completely different person for him to backtrack now.

      He’s already been told that if the straight remains closed and the bombings continue that he risks a global depression, and Trump loves to talk trade. Surrendering is him trying to salvage what little he has left to lose.

      He could change his mind on everything but this. This is where the stakes are too high and he can’t afford to lose anymore ground.

        Nah, some reporter will ask a simple question, and he’ll go off about how tough he is, and Iran will do whatever he demands, or he’ll clobber them, and they’ll just quit the talks.

        If I were them, every time he opens his mouth, I’d go silent for a month. Let him twist for a while, before coming back. In a year, maybe he’ll learn to keep his mouth shut, but I doubt it.

          The ghouls surrounding him don’t care about the US, or how much this costs it. They only care about money and since a large part of the stock market is disconnected from reality they gotta make it especially bad because Trump’s Friday dump and Monday pump has stopped working.

      More likely, he’ll just run his mouth, acting like my stupid uncle at Thanksgiving, until Iran says " Fuck You," and walks away.

      Iran doesn’t really want this deal, they’d be happy to grind him through the Midterms. They’re throwing him a bone, but he’ll be too stupid and arrogant to understand that, and they’ll eventually pull their charity and go home.

          Trump >= 0.37 Americas

          However, the delta Trump is about -0.13 Americas over 1.7 months, with some margin of error.

            I’m so sick of this sentiment. Erasing nuance so you can hate and blame victims. I know you won’t stop though. Everyone who voted against trump and tried to talk sense into the other side is still trash to you, and that fucking sucks.

              Yeah let’s just judge entire people by their elected leaders. Let’s forget about Citizens United, the bullshit voting system, gerrymandering, voter suppression, foreign influence campaigns, corrupt primaries, and the death of the fairness doctrine. You can totally judge an entire people based on their president, that’s not childish at all.

              Big fat /S for those who so clearly need everything spelled out

                Thank you! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it now. Even though Putin does have way more support than trump does, I will never judge the whole of the Russian people by his actions as dictator.

                  Some Russians get it. Pussy Riot and Little Big shows that much. You always wish the people living under corrupt authoritarians were more rowdy, outspoken, proactive - but there’s no such thing as a morally superior hater.
