Trump, 79, told his administration that he thought Iran would capitulate to the U.S. before it closed the Strait

Yeah that’s what it seemed like, he thought he’d just bomb a little and everything would go his way. Got hopped up success in Venezuela and thought it would be the same.

Can’t get over the white pants.

He’s going to bomb until he’s bored and then stop. That’s why it’s going to be air only (maybe ground special ops), air only is easy to stop. Well the US part is easy to stop, then it’s when does Iran stop.

Not sure if too expensive but the geopolitical risk is too high.

This is fun because when does the war end? When the US says so?

It’s an explanation, not an excuse.

I heard the school was built on former military land. So could be a case of very outdated information.

Fox: “It’s not a war!”

Trump: “It’s a war.”

“Mothers out there are worried that we’re going to have a draft, that they’re going to see their sons and daughters get involved in this,” said Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo, speaking with Leavitt Sunday. “What do you want to say about the president’s plans for troops on the ground? As we know, it’s been largely an air campaign up until now.”

“It has been, and it will continue to be, and President Trump wisely does not remove options off of the table,” Leavitt said.

He’s like a teenager talking smack on call of duty.

Protesters, observers and passersby taken into custody by federal agents were declared terrorists and attackers in hundreds of social-media posts by U.S. officials and departments since the start of the immigration sweeps in cities. This includes Minneapolis, where two citizens were excoriated by officials after they were killed by federal agents in January.

"What you’re seeing right now … is a military under President Trump’s leadership that is not fighting politically correct. That isn’t fighting with its hands tied behind its back,” Miller said.

”One of the reasons why people lost faith in the military and the capacity to use that military to defend us is because we had a woke Pentagon. Because we had a military who at the very highest level – not the war-fighters – was forced to fight a less than full fight.”

Iran will do it if they’re about to go down. They won’t do it before because then it’s “justifiction” for the US to put boots on the ground and do a normal invasion.

The joke but easier.

That will tank his popularity, not increase it. Now if Iran attacks the US, who the fuck knows.

Trump doesn’t like, you know, war. IEDs are war, bombing isn’t like, you know, an actual war. It’s just bombing and stuff. /s

To Trump and Hegseth there’s no boots on the ground so no war. Trump doesn’t want imagery of people being blown up by IEDs, he wants planes and maybe some special force operation.

“Well, because it happened all very quickly. We thought, and I thought, maybe more so than most, I could ask Marco [Rubio], but I thought we were going to have a situation where we were going to be attacked,” Trump said, going off on a tangent about Iran attacking countries around the region.
