Only an idiot fights a war on two fronts. Only the heir to the throne of the kingdom of idiots would fight a war on twelve fronts.
But only a genius fights a war on 3 fronts
- Iran
- Cuba
- United States
We have not only seen our neighbors murdered, abducted, and beaten at the hands of ICE - now Minneapolis has FUCKING BOUNTY HUNTERS.
They’re pointing assault rifles at bystanders for witnessing their crimes.
this is a distraction. he's going after duterte
Tin foil hat time: he's dying and he's speedrunning as many neocon wishlist items as he can.
aw fuck cambodia is after cuba isn't it
He's dying and the death cultists that have infiltrated the government have surrounded him by telling him his salvation lies with burning the world
I wish. I think it's more of a concern about the midterms.
Not that "Israel First" Schumer would actually stop him...
There has 100% been a noticeable urgency to a whole lot of his shit for a bit now, agreed.
He's gonna live to be 102 because life simply can't be fair
open up a kohl slaw restaurant in DC that uses exclusively day old mayo right by the white house and save us all
call if Sloppy Jeff's and he'll try to eat there every day
That was the plan from the start. Save the foil for the grill. 🙂
I think it's more along the lines of the administration finally realized the american people simply don't care/are apathetic to everything so they've decided to just go full steam ahead. Even the lies have become crappy or they just aren't bothering with lying anymore.
I think the excuse that they need a war to justify calling off elections is unnecessary now and they know it. They're just going to straight up call them off soon and use a dumb lie as reasoning and only use a lie just so they have something to say. "we're at war, no elections" and that'll be that.
The whole thing can be summed up as a toddler testing his limits with a bunch of absentee parents. And the toddler has now finally learned he can get away with anything because his parents are Ned Flanders parents.
How many countries does he have to destroy before the world unites against him?
Depends heavily on how white the country is
Oh, is that so? Because you seem pretty focused elsewhere right now.
He's lost interest in bombing brown people. The explosions no longer excite him.
He does seem to have a disturbingly short attention sp- Wait. What were we talking about? Oh, squirrels!
It isn't Trump's attention span that makes him evil.
No, the flaming narcissism, psychopathy and child rape does that. But it doesn't exactly help on the volatility front either.
I'm not so sure. I heard someone say bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity and I think their excuse for both is it's ok if you just do it in brown town.
On his ball room?
No one batted an eyelid when they regime changed in Venezuela, so they keep going...
There was no regime change in Venezuela, the same people are running the place.
Iran gives Donnie a gold painted yacht and a choice of Ayatollahs (it a title you know, not a person) and the US will walk away.
My eyes went absolutely batty, and haven't stopped. Suggestions?
Stop being a decent human being. The world has gone to pot.
It's not in my genetics, and I'm not interested in crispr'ing out my human decency.
just go sit on a microwave for a few minutes. worked for me
He only succeeds in hitting enemies when they don't expect it. I don't think the Cubans will be as off guard as Maduro or Khomeini
He will try for total world domination till somebody stops him. Countries with US military bases are especially at risk. Every island nation should be nervous. Trump is nobody's ally. He's always been a selfish bully, attention whore and a pig, but the dementia has turned his evil and his chaotic up to 11 and the death cult is using that to further their goals to force judgement day.
Is this guy doing a speed-run through every crank conservative wishlist when it comes to bombing/invading countries the world over because he knows something about his health that he hasn't divulged?
Because "legacy"?
This man wants to vibe fight a second war?
Isn't this the third?
Fourth, if you count what he's letting ICE do to his own citizens.
I mean he ended what, 8? 9? wars - he can start like another three or four and still be a net peacemaker.
Only in his own mind. Best estimate right now is four.
From https://factually.co/fact-checks/politics/wars-ended-by-donald-trump-list-and-analysis-91dc99
I was joking in case it wasn't absolutely obvious. I would strongly contest the view that he facilitated peace in even one country.
I mean, Trump is a huge global unifying factor.
I agree with you.
It's frustrating how they're "really focused" on the thing that is not the war they started on a "feeling"....
Fall? Is that a good thing?
It is to Republicans who salivate over the prospect of destroying socialist/communist countries or countries with brown people they don't like that have too much oil that isn't ours.

Ugh, I need coffee. I read "CNN Cuba" as a Cuban division of CNN, and wondered how that could possibly be.
I read it that way too, because I'm a native English speaker, and there is no punctuation. How would I know if some corp news media had a division in another country?
I think the word "that" (as in, "tells CNN that Cuba...") would be more effective/correct than any kind of punctuation, but headlines have weird grammatical rules behind them so that may not be "allowed"

You know the singer from the super balls is not from Cuba but American.
Yet another war of distraction, though he’s also trying really hard to destroy America.
Let's just treat him like he knows a goddamned thing. Sure.
The sheer amount of vacuum in that orange head surely must be causing issues. I saw what happened to Oceangate. Granted it had more than one vacuum inside.
