Rachel is downright giddy and gleeful tonight.

[milestogo]

The jig is finally up.

[pangaia]

1. Well, I am not giddy. Not until something real........

[a kennedy]

2. Me either, and we're not watching any political shows until there is concrete

evidence that this orange piece of shit is going down......We just can’t take anymore of their deny, and delay shit. WE’RE DONE.

[Dawson Leery]

3. I'll wait until something happens that kicks the Russian Asset down a few notches.

[demtenjeep]

4. and tomorrow we strike Iran

then all talk will be war

[malaise]

6. Russia would not allow that

Just give thanks

[Strelnikov_]

13. Who profits from conflict in the Middle East? Putinist Russia.

We now know what orders he gave Red Don during the call.

[MrsCoffee]

18. Right?

Someone earlier said Russia wouldn't want us to attack Iran because Putin wants their oil. Isn't that exactly why he would want Trump to attack?

[Strelnikov_]

19. It is about oil prices and exports

Russia is the worlds 2nd largest oil exporter. Outside of the Middle East, there really are not any other major exporters.

Also, Iran does not have that much petroleum left. The British worked it over good the 1st half of the 20th century. I think their major reserves are natural gas, something Russia has a hell of a lot of already (Ukraine<>pipeline access to Europe).

Oil prices go up, Russia makes more on exports. Middle East exports are disrupted, Russia makes lots more on exports.

And it is the countries with export capacity that matter. A relatively small disruption in the export market, dominated by the Middle East, will result in a major price increase. An essential, price inelastic (over the short run) commodity.

15. Next week.

Takes a bit to get Carriers & Bombers in the Arabian sea

[Ilsa]

5. The crew started laughing when she

said, "mazel tov!" as a congratulations to trump for failing so spectacularly.

This is trumpy's big embarrassment: that he's really broke, leveraged to the hilt. He measures life's success by money. He'll be raging by morning.

[milestogo]

7. Yes, Tomorrow morning he will be freaking out.

[nolabear]

8. I'd like to be a fly on his wall right now.

[CentralMass]

9. What is she giddy about ?

[milestogo]

16. Trump being exposed as a fraud who lost a billion dollars in a decade

and claims to be a business genius.

[CentralMass]

21. +1

[JohnnyLib2]

10. This news sure brightened my mood.

Exposing him to more Americans as a phony fool can't hurt. Cue the jokes.

[Amaryllis]

[HipChick]
