Trump Launches War On Iran

I think Fetterman will have a solid chance of keeping his Senate seat in the 2028 election. I'd bet the voters of his state like him and he might not need much help from his party elders.
What are you basing this on? Do you have any of your polls handy?
 
You do know Democrats have been in charge when we went to war right?
Hmmm when was that? Oh yes, FDR, but he didn’t drop bombs on someone who hadn’t attacked us…WW2. Then Harry Truman, but I doubt many if us were alive then.

Eisenhower forward has been all Republicans
 
Well, the US is a target now, and the Mullah's have long memories. The failure here is resorting to military force, which will bring about only short term gain, assuming the US bombings has the intended effect.
"the mullahs" - meaniing Iranian leadership? yes so far they've survived, but they just got a bad bloody nose. The regime spent a lot of money and scientific dedication for "civilian energy" o_O , and they have nothing to show for it. Their proxies are in bad shape too.
Long memories or not they got whipped, and you have to wonder if/when the basij type enforcement breaks down then the people will have had enough and revolt? It's impossible to say what happens next, but i think it opens up good possibilities to regime change or at least a greatly weakened Iran..
 
So, you think we should have attacked Saudi Arabia instead of going after Bin Laden.

That's not what I said or implied. Then again, you have nothing with which to try to make an argument that trump's intervention in Israel's war against Iran is a good idea, so....

Saudi Arabia might have been easier to occupy than Afghanistan. How did that work out considering where was bin Laden hiding?
 
You think they are our friends? Should I remind you that on Sep 11, 2001 how many of those terrorists were Saudi? Did you somehow forget that Osama bin Laden was Saudi?
They didn't chant it, Saudi nationals just happened to be the ones to launch the worst terrorist attack in US history.
Donald likes the Saudis so @Trump is not allowed to criticize them. Can you imagine how Donald might react if he learned that one of his supposedly loyal foot soldiers betrayed him like that?! It would be brutal.
 
Ahh... just insults then.


.
Yeah, I’m guessing she just has insults. Mostly focused on the Democrats but probably also on the illegals, the brown people and the woke people. It’s hard to list all of the potential targets, MAGA tend to be angry at a lot of folks.
 

Republicans own every inch of this. Every single inch.
Whether it’s acknowledged or not, we are almost certainly in an all-out war now because NO country in the world would allow another country to do what Trump just did to Iran and not hit back with everything they have. I’m just thankful I didn’t vote for this worthless piece of shit.

You sure did. You clearly think their nationality should be used as the basis for blame.
 
“Now is the time for peace!”


I’ll be shocked if the Iranians sue for peace. They’ve got to know that even that course of action won’t save them because people have been talking about regime change.

Knowledge just doesn't disappear, so I don't think I'd categorize it that way. Iran is certainly weakened now, and they need to seriously reconsider what their role is going to be from here on out, because they will likely not have the latitude to rebuild what they once had. Iran's managed to enrich uranium in spite of the sanctions and whether or not they will be able to rebuild what's lost is also questionable.

Anything's possible, but the main problem now is getting attacked by Israel and the US is not making the focus on the government, but the ones who attacked and killed their people over weapons they didn't have.

No, I didn't.

I've responded to MAGA posts that claim Iran's acquisition of nukes would present a danger that somehow hasn't been presented by other countries with nukes.

I've also replied to MAGA posts that claim violent rhetoric indicates future violent actions. The obvious retort to "Death to America!" chants on the parts of Iranians is.....the majority of the 9/11 perpetrators came from what country?
