Did Trump deliberately let the Iranians attack bases housing US troops in Iraq with missiles?

Clearly Trump and those in the military who choose to kiss his ass knew the Iranian attack was going to occur beforehand. The troops had time to get into bunkers.

I smell a "genius Trump deal" gone wrong here. Call me cynical and suspicious.

Why has Trump lately minimized (as just headaches) the damage of the traumatic brain injury to our troops caused by Iran's attack? Why is Trump still not making any noise about it? Is it because he and his group of ass-kissing dumbasses didn't think about traumatic brain injury and just decided to let Iran attack the bases before they did it?

When Trump knew Iran was about to attack, what did he do? Did he just order the military to stand down and the troops at the bases to take cover? Did Trump think he was going to get credit for taking out Soleimani without having to "pay anything," if he did that (because it would just be some bombs hitting some sand)? Is he that fucking dumb and that much of an asshole?

You can almost picture him calling in his ass kissers now and saying, "Why didn't anyone tell me about this traumatic brain injury bullshit?"

"We did, Sir?"

SEEMS like he'd make a big deal out of the injuries that occurred rather than minimize them, since he hates Iran so much.

I follow ya ...
