So, Trump Plans to Distract Everyone from His Bad Deeds

To that end, he is openly provoking Iran to do something - anything - that can be characterized as an attack on US interests. When they do, Donald J. Trump will order our military to take retaliatory actions.

In other words, he is fomenting a war to hide his own illegal and immoral actions.

He's got the classic hawks standing beside him as he does this. He is ignoring statements by other major nations that they see no indication that Iran plans any such attacks.

Still, he is sending forces to that region in anticipation of the need for retaliation against some action he is provoking Iran to take.

Perfect, Donald! Start a nice war. Wag that fucking dog!

Maybe that will provoke Congress to impeach and remove you from office.

You moronic, evil SOB!

scenario of things to come.


Sure appears the Tea Party Senators are all behind him as well as the Libertarian Military Industrial Complex Players.

It is scary when the End Timers are calling our Foreign Policy.

Just what the hell could go wrong with that?

Provoking warfare is nothing short of obscene. And yet, Trump will do it just to distract from his own bad deeds.

I'm disgusted beyond explanation.

Trump's pledge to Bibi and his hardliners as well as the Saudi's,to replace the Religious Leaders a Viceroy like we tried in Iraq. Just how well did that work.

Indeed I see the US provoking Iran after tearing up a treaty.

Fuck this shit!! Isn't the US tired of murdering Muslims in their own homelands?

But, Trump will push them to do something or will fake them doing something to get this started.

... he needed when Cohen testified so he knows only a ground war will distract from Mueller or McGhan.

The courts telling Benedict Donald to turn over information isn't going to stop him so he needs something big

"won't change horses" if he provokes a war and keeps it going past 2020. Bolton is a madman war promoter, purposely put in place for such a scenario.

Send your own spawn to war, Donnie, and keep our kids out of your self-serving plans.

Openly bullying and provoking a conflict thinking it will get him re-elected. He's the worst human being to inhabit the planet since Hitler, willing to send millions to their deaths just to stay in power.
