Donald Trump expressed certainty his big gamble to directly assist the Israelis delivered a knockout blow to Iran’s nuclear program — even as many supporters and detractors alike were warning that U.S. military action could draw the United States into an expansive regional conflict.
Trump, in brief remarks to the nation on Saturday evening from the White House, said the U.S. strikes “obliterated” three critical Iranian enrichment facilities and “the bully of the Middle East must now make peace.”
But it’s a risky moment for Trump, who has belittled his predecessors for tying up America in “stupid wars” and has repeatedly said he was determined to keep the U.S. and the Middle East from another expansive conflict.
FFS.
Stupid moment, more like.
A move ignoring the input of his own Intelligence Dept (if Gabbard/intelligence can be used??) and specifically executed in hopes Chump can parlay it into that Peace Prize he’s been jonesing for with the added benefit of making Netan-yayhoo happy.
Effect: oil prices will rise substantially, US is now open to another 9/11 event with the regime of ultimate stupidity in charge, Putain will not react happily, and other such fun and joy I haven’t yet thought of…
Fucking. Idiot. Impulsive. OutOfControl. Toddler.
