Trump's last war against the Houthis lasted less than a month. TACO.
I think he already knows that he can't get a clear quick win by bombing, and the thought of boots on the ground gives him an anaphylactic allergy attack.
Professor Phillips O'Brien reports this conversation with a senior Republican source.
O'Brien: What do you think was the percentage chance that Trump ever would have attacked Iran?
Senior Republican: Zero. But I think at times HE thought he would. Doesn’t mean he would.
My Take: Trump is very brave when he's punching down at immigrants. When there's real pushback, TACO. That's one of the reasons for his political survival— he almost never sustains a fight with people who actually have power.
War is something that other people do. Trump is no hero and no "strong man"; he justs golfs and picks on the weak and scared. I believe this is the definition of a cowardly bully, especially the part where he will not engage anyone or anything he thinks might hurt or discommode or call him to account. Fortunately, if there is an wee up side, Trump also is prone to supratentorialpansynaptapoenia and he's old. Not even a last-runner choice for any sort of public office. Seriously. But he is going to do a lot more damage before he is "reassigned."
If they really are endless wars, why the closing date of 2025 on the tombstone? Or do all wars end with the burial of Trump? I think that's giving Trump too much agency. Or credit/blame. I do like the idea of all wars coming to an end, but... Humanity seems to think some folks are "better" than others...

Very good. An alternative take would have him actively tweeting, as if not fully aware of the situation. But, with this guy, who knows?
Incredible image………..
Thinking of Bibi...and the hostages too. :-((
why should the fate of the world depend upon a malign, clueless, showboating doofus?

Once again, as deep, as it is brilliantly thought provoking
He tweets from a position of weakness, but feigns strength!
“I may do it, I may not do it. Nobody knows what I will do.” Never has a president been so maddeningly ambiguous!
I doubt he has a pulse on anything, except his wrist - and there is a lot of speculation about his health, again!
Bravo Michael deAdder!!!!
I love this one,Mike
Use both hands....
And awaaaaay we go!

Endless BS.
