Congratulations to all involved in eliminating Qassem Soleimani. Long in the making, this was a decisive blow against Iran's malign Quds Force activities worldwide. I hope this is the first step to regime change in Tehran
'Long in the making'? Think how much this man is suffering being far from the situation room.

And now Donnie Dullard has gone and done that all by himself, even without Deranged Yosemite Sam (yeah, I know Yosemite Sam is generally deranged... I mean John Bolton is deranged even relative to Yosemite Sam).
Exactly the level of competence one ought to expect from Trump.

What exactly did it DECIDE, you fucking chickenhawk? You're so blind you don't even realize that you immediately contradicted yourself by following that up with "I hope". So how was this DECISIVE?
