Trump orders strike on Iran, abruptly pulls back

[Bugsy McGurk]

I'm glad that you asked me. I can foretell that there will be much more posting today. I hope this helps

Meanwhile, could you elaborate on what lunacy there is in not bombing Iran at this time?

Nope. Because I didn’t say that it’s lunacy to not bomb Iran.

Trump provides a case study in projection. Every day.

Plus he's been consumed with being the opposite of Obama.
Obama successfully handled Iran with 5 other countries.
Trump does the opposite. God help us.

My bad, I misread. You came in at post for and called it insanity. What is insane about not bombing Iran at this time?

Ordering the attack in the first place.
That's your Trump insanity.

Same response.

I thought they were all saying he's an out-of-control lunatic incapable of controlling himself. Here he controls himself, and he's in the wrong. I wonder who the lunatics are?

We are on the verge of a war with Iran because of Trump's incompetence.

That's your Trump insanity.

You don't have to tell me. I'm just trying to clarify... So you're saying there was an attack?

 

[PhilFish]

Same response.

So your position is that it's not insanity to not bomb Iran?

or you feel that he actually should have bombed Iran and now you're calling it Insanity because he did not?

We are on the verge of a war with Iran because of Trump's incompetence.

How so? Did you place the bombs on the sides of the tankers? Did he reduce fake photographs showing same? Was he who shot the drone out of the sky?

right now I'm just trying to puzzle through what is in saying about his not ordering a strike against Iran. Can you help with that?

We wouldn't be in this situation in the first place if he had just left the JCPOA in place. Now we are on the verge of war because Trump and Republicans don't like Obama's brand.

You need reading comprehension lessons.

It's all about Trump's dick. Check out his latest tweet.

We were cocked & loaded to retaliate last night on 3 different sights when I asked,

And had he not, had he bombed something, you loony lefty on here right now playing the role of war-mongers would have flip-flopped over and been on here sounding like Putin...….

"Oh dear, oh my, "This U.S. military attack on Iran will be a catastrophe for the Middle East!!!!!! It will surely trigger a surge in violence and a refugee exodus"!!!!!!!!!! You KNOW how we despise violence and love to support all refugees!!!!!! Orange man is pure evil!!!!!!!!! THE HORROR!!!!!!!!

Sheesh…..

Thanks for missing the point entirely. This is about looking like the president doesn't know what the f*ck he is doing. You guys criticized Obama for the "line in the sand" moment with Assad...but the fact is that Obama got Assad to give up all the WMD we knew about...which was a victory for us. Trump waffling about an attack is just weird.

I think I clearly state my positions. And I did not state those positions. Ergo, they are not my positions.

President Trump reportedly gave the order to bomb Iran on Thursday night in response to its “unprovoked” downing of a US drone — even going so far as to put planes in the air and ships in position to strike — before eventually changing his mind, officials say.

Like a teen boy practicing coitus interruptus. Sheesh.

Thank God it wasn't Hillary's decision. We'd be exchanging nukes with them right now.

Putin told him not to.

Putin told Obama and o was a master of making new redlines.

would seem we're here because Iran bombed two tankers, and shot down a drone

 

[PhilFish]

nope. not that.
He should have attacked?

ok. seems you're non committal.

Factually - trump has not bombed Iran.


Is this good or bad?

Which they wouldn't have done if Trump hadn't withdrew from the JCPOA.
