Trump hat gerade den Krieg im Iran verloren

Im sure he will be going for the peace prize for it.

You almost had me? You never had me. You never had your car.

*Americans lost the war.

Now that it’s over, can we refocus on the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention on this matter.

Not just lost, surrendered. Never in the history of the united states have we surrendered a war. Battles yes, but never a war. He really is going for all the firsts in the US.

Just a reminder:

> „The American public should distrust a “weak” and “ineffective” president whose “poll numbers are in a tailspin” if he provokes a military confrontation with Iran. He’s doing it to “save face” and “look tough” in a transparent attempt “to get reelected.”

> That was the stark warning that Donald J. Trump voiced repeatedly on social media in the early 2010’s about his predecessor, Barack Obama. The comments have taken on discouraging resonance at the dawn of 2020, as president Trump — impeached by the House and facing trial in the Senate, his approval ratings mired in the low forties — ordered a drone strike that killed top Iranian general Qasem Soleimani. The assassination of the powerful commander of Revolutionary Guard threatens to spark a broader war with the Persian Gulf nation.

> Trump is notorious for having foreshadowed the worst of his presidency on his Twitter account. But even by the standards of “there’s always a tweet,” Trump’s ideation about a president launching a conflict with Iran to boost his domestic standing is extraordinary.

> Trump first began warning of a politically motivated war with Iran more than eight years ago, shooting a video at his desk in Trump Tower in November of 2011, in which he denounced the “outrage” of launching “a war in order to get reelected — and I believe that’s going to happen.”

> Trump repeated this warning — in pithier form — on Twitter just a few weeks later:

> Trump picked up the warning again with a pair of tweets in October 2012, in the heat of that year’s presidential campaign:

> Despite Obama being re-elected, soundly defeating Mitt Romney, without a conflict in the Persian Gulf, Trump did not let go of his theory that the commander in chief would use his war powers against Iran for political gain:

> Trump continued beating this drum into November of 2013, because of Obama’s alleged inability to negotiate with Iran.

> Here we sit now, as a nation, some five years later. Trump has ripped up the Iran nuclear deal that Obama negotiated. And he has assassinated an Iranian commander — threatening to spark another war in the Middle-East — just as Trump’s own reelection prospects look dim.

> The White House insists the strike that killed Soleimani was pre-emptive in nature — seeking to block the general from launching deadly attacks. “General Qassem Soleimani has killed or badly wounded thousands of Americans over an extended period of time, and was plotting to kill many more,” Trump tweeted Friday. However, the New York Times reported, citing a Defense Department official: “There was nothing new in the threat presented by the Iranian general.”

> Perhaps the president’s actions are above fully above board and serve the national interest.

> Or perhaps we’re now facing what Trump warned of all the way back in 2011 — an outrage.

just?

he lost it as soon as he started it. There was never any victory possible.

he turned Iran’s bluff of closing the strait, into a fact, and showed that it was a much stronger reality than anyone (including Iran) had previously thought.

Just? He lost it a while ago

Not surprising to say the least. And this ceasefire agreement is probably going to be sabotaged by the Israelis.

What else is new?

He lost it by starting it. There is no possible gain for the US in this war. Never was. A competent secretary of defense would have told him that.

BTW Congress is supposed to approve wars, not only was this a huge bungle for the Predator of Children in Chief but it was an illegal bungle at that.

We desperately need reforms in American politics.

He lost that war the moment he started it.

And yet his handlers and insider cronies have made, and will continue to make, insane fuckloads of money while the vast majority suffer more.

America will always be losing this war.

As the twats in the Oval Office say “you don’t have the cards.”

The US never had the cards. Iran had all the leverage. The second trump was dumb enough to give Netanyahu his wish of bombing Iran, the war was lost.

When you’re negotiating to go back to a situation similar to three months ago, you fucked up.

Really need to keep hammering home what a pathetic loser Trump and his people are.

It was over before it even started. Not surprised at this outcome.
