Trump is a pussy, he’ll talk big but won’t actually do shit.

Imagine a war where the leadership is a cognitively deficient Donald Trump and a drunk and stupid Pete Hegseth.

Discuss.
Great call! Can you please tell us tomorrow's lottery numbers?
Some think that this is him "chickening out", he seems to think that you can just bomb a country and walk away with no consequence. Some are saying that he thinks this single act will end the whole conflict, what a dumbass. Too bad the Dems are too weak willed to hit any type of message home.

On the plus side, I expect the next protests to be massive. I wasn't sure that we would hit 3.5% in the streets, but then I'm constantly reminded who is our POTUS.

Investors brace for oil price spike, rush to havens after US bombs Iran nuclear sites

A U.S. attack on Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday could lead to a knee-jerk reaction in global markets when they reopen, sending oil prices higher and triggering a rush to safety, investors said, as they assessed how the latest escalation of tensions would ripple through the global economy.

The attack, which was announced by President Donald Trump on social media site Truth Social, deepens U.S. involvement in the Middle East conflict. That was the question going into the weekend, when investors were mulling a host of different market scenarios.

In the immediate aftermath of the announcement, they expected the U.S. involvement was likely to cause a selloff in equities and a possible bid for the dollar and other safe-haven assets when trading begins, but also said much uncertainty about the course of the conflict remained.

Vance: I empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents

Congrats to Gen Z/Alpha, I guess it's now their turn to watch the country get bogged down in a pointless quagmire for the dumbest reasons! You're truly Americans now, enjoy!

Luck you you piece of orange shit. I have never wished death on anyone, but I hope this golf, McDonald's loving assclown has a heartache and suffers like a mofo. If there was ever a motherfucker that deserves that end, it's his sorry ass.

Also, I hope all yall take measures to protect yourselves and your family. Iran will strike at us and it won't be pretty. Stack away some cash, fortify your home, and make contingency plans. Just saying.

HTTR!

I've heard heartache is one of the worst ways to go....

Also, Iran wants to retaliate, but I'm pretty sure they also want to continue to exist. Their options are extremely limited, and none really end well with them.
Cyber attacks are currently a bigger threat than physical for everyone not in the middle east.
