Trump doesn’t want to move against Iran until the unredacted Mueller Report leaks.
He’ll nuke Tehran half an hour later.
Ya lie down with Neocon Hawks
Ya become a Neocon Hawk
Regime change in Iran.
Huh.
I must have missed when we were put in charge of regimes.
Translation: “Bolton and Pompeo are getting MORE PRESS than I AM! I will NOT STAND FOR THAT!!!”
I assume Mr. Bolton is on the phone about now with Gulf of Tonkin experts and fixers.
Trump … feels their plans bypass his own thinking
any plan would bypass his own thinking, which is impossible to actually detect.
I think it’s an opportunity to see whether Trump is a GOP puppet or the other way around and it might affect Dem’s strategy.
What a circus. How pathetic is it that Trump is right on this one?
No they’re going to get rid of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and install a Shah
…Oh wait
Everybody gets one of these when they sign up
Trump really has zero bravery, negative bravery in fact. Calling him a coward is inflammatory and I choose to be diplomatic and not do that.
Trump absolutely has his brand foremost in his brain. It’s endemic and instinctual. He ran for president knowing that it would be good for his brand, expecting to lose, but ready to figure it out if he were to win by some chance.
Trump knows instinctively that bombing Iran or other military activity of this sort has huge odds of not coming out well. That would damage his brand, and if there’s anything he’s afraid of, that’s it. Really bad for his brand, really bad for his business. Isn’t going to happen.
Trump loves the chatter from Bolton and war hawks because it makes him look brave and sounds good for his brand. But actual action? An extremely low possibility. That explains why he doesn’t want Bolton and company to get too far out ahead of things. It’ll be character building for Bolton to stew in his own juices for a while now.
Seriously? Don’t tell me he didn’t know what he was getting with Bolton and where it would lead.
Unpossible!
Needs to be. The CIA totally botched the tanker attacks. Only minor damage, no blown-up oil tankers to plaster all over the news.
Gee, it’s really a shame you are so powerless and there is nothing you can do about it, Donald. Asshole.
Trump is beyond unfit for office. Not knowing that Bolton is “warlike” shows a total lack of even basic curiosity about anything that’s happened in terms of foreign policy since before 2001. It is criminal incompetence.
The CIA should stop outsourcing to the Saudis. Just because they pulled off 911 doesn’t mean they can be trusted with all the wet work.
Rather funny, dommyluc. (Smiling broadly)
Who knew that you could also suffer bone spurs in your brain? I guess I really should subscribe to the New England Journal of Medicine.
