Very interesting seeing how Pete Hegseth’s philosophy of “maximum lethality” ran its course, and yet…
- Iran has come out the other side with more leverage despite taking big losses
- Trump is desperate to end his (illegally started) war
- Conservatives like Tucker Carlson have turned on him for his statement on Easter and calls for genocide
Seems like a complete miss. I’m reminded of this recent Atlantic article…
Donald Trump does not think strategically. Nor does he think historically, geographically, or even rationally. He does not connect actions he takes on one day to events that occur weeks later. He does not think about how his behavior in one place will change the behavior of other people in other places. He does not consider the wider implications of his decisions. He does not take responsibility when these decisions go wrong. Instead, he acts on whim and impulse, and when he changes his mind—when he feels new whims and new impulses—he simply lies about whatever he said or did before.
Mmm, Iran jam
you can fix the problem donald, by going to Iran in person. they’ll apologise if you go in person
True leaders lead by example. He says ship crews need to put on their big boy pants and just go through, and that Iran has capitulated. Well Con Don, lead us, put your money where your mouth is. Or retire, and shut up forever.
Stop making ridiculous comparisons. Dogs are cute when they beg.
Not like a dog. Dogs have charm.
He begged like a Donnie.
Wow, rude. My dog is personally offended.
And he hates dogs
