His intended audience is Iran. He’s terrified of being made to look weak or get a worse deal than Obama. And he’s aware that time is on their side. Look at his comments about escalating the conflict: Iran is “taking too long to come to a deal”. He’s obsessed with getting a deal quick, but also not giving in.

He’s in a loose/loose position and former presidents in this situation are responsible for the Vietnam war.

RFK Jr. is a living example of how generational wealth can transform a class of clever criminals into a class of stupid criminals in 3 generations or less.

Donald was right. The Trump name does belong right next to Kennedy.

The reason Trump and Paxton are successful is because their voters will overlook absolutely anything they do because they’re white men who say the right words. Maybe we shouldn’t copy that?

It’s a bad look for people who call themselves antifascist to not only blindly excuse a Nazi tattoo with a lame excuse, but to ridicule anyone who’d consider that a red flag. It’s a bad look for people who call themselves feminist to not only dismiss women who say he’s a misogynist, but go straight to the ‘lying bitch’ defense.

I’m really getting sick and tired of public figures shoving their gender ideology and sexually down my throat. Congratulations, but you don’t need to go around bragging in front of children about how you cum inside your wife. It’s disgusting, get help.

I don’t think it’s coherent to suggest I’m overlooking what Trump is doing. People can hold views on multiple things.

I’ve never been taken in by all that laptop nonsense. I try to be understanding of addiction too. But dude had an affair with his brother’s widow; I can’t see past that. No matter how many clever clap-backs on Xwitter.

Term limits would require a Constitutional amendment. That’s a generational project.

The corruption in this court will consume it. For example, it’s only a matter of time before a POTUS realizes that the immunity granted by the court could be used to legally assassinate judges who rule against you. Why add to the court when you can subtract?

These kids are better equipped than the orks at the front.

There is a rise in so called “America first anti-Zionism”. Don’t fall for it.

The first problem, of course is that it’s anti-Semitic at it’s core. But also, the idea that Israel “tricked” the US into war with Iran is just stupid. The US has been in a on-again off-again conflict with Iran since the 70s. Every POTUS since Carter has contemplated attacking Iran, they just concluded (correctly) that it wouldn’t work. The only reason to believe America didn’t go into this eyes-open is to absolve the US for Israel’s crimes. We were tricked you see… by those crafty Hebrews.

Donald is just looking for a scapegoat. This is typical behavior when things don’t go his way. It may be true that Netanyahu had undue influence over Trump, but that could be true of anyone who Trump talks to, or sees on TV.

Fight fire with fire. Spread the word that Charlie Kirk died of an overdose, the gunshot hysteria is a distraction.

The Kennedy brothers were pretty eager to use assassinations as foreign policy. I hope the Trumps don’t get the same “live by the sword” lesson that the other American royals got.

There was a time when the POTUS could have pressured Ukraine against attacking oil infrastructure during the Iran crisis. But you can’t leverage aid when your not sending any.

I take comfort and occasional joy at the knowledge that these people are small and miserable.

Kamala lost because she didn’t have a penis.

If you squint your eyes, you can kinda see how Gaza might have hurt her in Michigan, but if you think that cost her GA, your high on your own supply.

Honestly it’s easier to believe that the Pillow Guy stole the election than it is to believe millions of Americans care about genocide in Gaza.

There are 10,000 plausible explanations for this, but I’m going to guess she was drunk. Maybe she hit her head when she fell in? If the people who recovered and examined her body say it’s not suspicious, maybe they know something you don’t?

In the US for example, many newspapers won’t list suicide as a cause of death unless that detail is newsworthy.

When the authorities say a death isn’t suspicious, but are vague about the cause, it might mean they’re trying to save the family some embarrassment.

The newspaper noted, however, that in a 2019 interview, Ahmadinejad praised President Trump and argued for a rapprochement between Iran and the US.

Everyone who goes on TV is automatically interviewing for a position in the Trump regime.

Before Oct 7, I was a vague supporter of Israel. I got interested and read a few books. Goddamn!

Only one is a polemic, the other two are histories.

By cultivating radical individualism conservatives shoot themselves in the foot. In their vision of freedom any obligation on the citizen is an outrage.

America is weak.

It’s a good theory, but Shapiro’s problems pre-date this. Shapiro’s problems seem to really start in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s killing. The Nick Fuentes, anti-Semitic faction of the Right has become ascendant and they don’t like Ben. (for some reason).

You could even argue it goes back to the friction with Candace Owens, and her firing from The Daily Wire behind her support of Kanye West.

In any case, the American right is splitting up over the idea that opposition to Israel is antisemitic. They believe that and therefore cannot support Israel.
