This tweet could also be seen as the psychotic ravings of a madman, or that of a one-trick pony deal maker who always backs down.

I think the "4D chess negotiation tactics" ship has sailed. I think he has lost it. Its amazing how tone deaf he has become, like really surprising how he went from being incredibly adept at channeling the publics feelings to now maniacally America Last / Israel First in the most extreme way.

He needs to be removed from power. It doesn't matter anymore if he tacos out or not. He is unwell and unfit.

Americs first never meant no wars, it meant no stupid wars. The plan was always physical removal and a preemptive World War on communism. We didn't clarify because we needed votes.

The only coalition that could remove him from power now would be antifa plus Richard Spencer, which isn't happening, so everyone just deal with it and be prepared for when the left ramps up their riots and terrorism in response because there are no more arguments to be made.

I hate to say this but this is how Trump negotiates, it's the art of the deal

I don’t think beating Iran into submission and stoping its 47 year long terror campaign is America Last. Iran has killed thousands of Americans going back to their attacks in the 80’s that never stopped. Blowing up our embassy and then the barracks bombing of peace keepers is an attack on America.

Now with Iran extorting the oil market and the U.S. trying to take the higher road by not closing the Strait to Irans ships show we never closed the door on stopping this. When your proxies have attacked international shipping, kidnapped American citizens and held them hostage, and murdered Americans taking those responsible out is pretty American.

Your belief that killing millions of innocent people by destroying power plants is going to suddenly lead to Iran loving Israel and USA is not based in reality.

Its a wild position. If we think about the US right after 9/11 it was the most united the people have been in my lifetime including politicians. One thing that brings people together is a common enemy.

reply

Exactly. It accomplished the complete opposite of what was supposedly intended here.

If it doesn't accomplish this it will be a first. I have no doubt that there are many Persians that hate the regime. But due to the fact that many no longer live there they may be mistaken in the majority on the ground.

People talk about the war being over 40 years and that the US didn't just start it. Well, let's say that is true. That's basically a generation. There are many many people that have only known the US as an enemy. A generation of people have lived under this regime. If they were one strike away from overthrowing the state I would think it would have happened already.

The longer this goes on the more confident I am that it was a bad idea. Let Isreal do this and deal with the consequences. As long as Bibi thinks Trump has his back he's gonna keep "mowing the lawn".

Far too many people have been gaslit by Trump's handlers.

You don't have to succumb to TDS. You don't have to be a MAGA retard. You can think for yourself and listen to many perspectives. Keep an open mind. Look to understand first, not win the arguements.

I'm sure all these men cheering on this war will admit they were wrong in 10 years.

USA sponsored Saddam Husseins 1980 invasion of Iran which after 8 years and millions of people dying ultimately failed.

Trump is now orchestrating war crimes on behalf of Bibi and his Greater Israel Zealots.

USA has used its military might to achieve resource hegemony over the Middle East since removing the democratically elected Iran government of Mossedagh in 1953.

USA creates the reactionary religious- militarist extremist regimes and factions that it then attacks and makes even more extremist.

@Cje95 is an apologist for US sponsored war crimes, Zionist extremists and the genocides they are perpetrating..

We're going back to the 80's now, 六四? Do you have a justification for Iran sperging out on the gulf states? You're not getting a Middle Eastern North Korea.

reply

imo trump sends tweets like this when he's trying to distract media attention. everyone gets in a tizzy over the tweet while they do something somewhere else. that's my guess. I really hope they don't do anything drastic

reply

Agreed. I think with the beginning of strikes starting it’s going to only increase. He pushed the deadline a couple of times now and he’s done that before and then acted when his backing down has been abused.
