The MAGAs are claiming Trump ended seven wars?!?

[misanthrope]

• Azerbaijan and Armenia
• Cambodia and Thailand
• Israel and Iran
• Rwanda and DR Congo
• India and Pakistan
• Egypt and Ethiopia
• Serbia and Kosovo

How are you supposed to reason with this kind of delusion?

[sheshe2]

1. Does anyone believe that MAGA or trump...

could actually find any of these places on a map? Yeah, I didn't think so.

3. Indian cable news

One of my sometimes-hobbies is watching Indian tv news streams--they openly ridicule the idea Trump is responsible for the India-Pakistan cease-fire or truce or whatever the proper terminology is.

Most Indian news I've watched is nationalistic and right-leaning, and they used to love Trump because Trump seemed to love Modi, who can do no wrong with the Hindutva nationalists. Plus they are both buffoonish populists who talk tough. But since the threat of the 50% tariffs they've done a 180 on Trump, calling him delusional and a laughingstock, etc... It's been very entertaining. Republic TV English is the worst/funniest, where they host "debates" where up to 8 people shout and talk over each other simultaneously.

5. MaddowBlog-Trump flubs the details of his own dubious boast about ending 'wars'

“In the six wars that I’ve settled, we haven’t had a ceasefire," the president said. Both parts of that sentence are demonstrably and embarrassingly wrong.

“In the six wars that I’ve settled, we haven’t had a ceasefire," Trump said.

Problem 1: He hasn’t settled six wars.

Problem 2: Most the resolutions he wants credit for have been the result of ceasefires. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

As part of his White House discussions with European leaders about Russia’s war in Ukraine, the American president added a new wrinkle to his dubious boasts. During an Oval Office event alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, for example, Trump declared, “I don’t think you need a ceasefire. If you look at the six deals that I settled this year they were all at war. I didn’t do any ceasefires.”

Soon after, as part of a larger discussion with European leaders, he pushed the same line: “In the six wars that I’ve settled, we haven’t had a ceasefire.”

Trump: "In the six wars that I've settled, we haven't had a ceasefire."

....The White House has never released a formal list of the five, six or seven wars that Trump has ostensibly ended, but the president did use his social media platform over the weekend to highlight a list put together by Roger Stone, a longtime GOP operative and Trump ally. It claimed that the president “has achieved peace” between:

India and Pakistan
Israel and Iran
Serbia and Kosovo
Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo
Thailand and Cambodia
Armenia and Azerbaijan
Saudi Arabia, Syria and Lebanon (Abraham Accords)

....In reality, when tensions eased between India and Pakistan, that was a ceasefire. When Thailand and Cambodia stopped firing at one another, that was also a ceasefire. When Israel and Iran stopped trading shots, that, too, was a ceasefire.

In other words, Trump not only can’t keep track of his own dubious claim, and not only can he not back it up with specifics, he’s also flubbing the details of his own boast in ways he really ought to understand
