You've got to get rid of this guy! 25/47!

It’s clear to everyone that Donald Trump has completely blown his war with Iran. Keeping him as head of State can only lead to more chaos and catastrophe. The only options for this country in this conflict are bad. The outcomes range from bad to worse.

Donald Trump’s psychological makeup together with his obvious physical and mental decline make him the exact wrong guy to make the right choices at this time. He’s so out of touch with reality that we have to suppose he thinks he can bully our way out of this. He can’t think well enough to understand how he’s blundered into the trap of asymmetrical conflict where exercising our military might is the worst of all the options. Lives and treasure will be lost in abundance.

Iran is Trump’s Vietnam, his Afghanistan. He’ll never face up to it, so someone or some body must figure out a way to get rid of him. Fast. The waters are filled with sharks and there hare icebergs everywhere. We needed steadier hands steering the ship.

in the White House, I guarantee will be just as bad, and probably even worse.....Miller, Vought, etc take your choice...

Then, EVERYTHING they are doing and will be done. will be done from the shadows, and behind smoke and mirrors...

Guarantee that the longer this Iran bullshit plays out, and Netanyahu has his sights set on conquering other countries, people are going to start rebelling against them. So it will be up to us to decide if we want democracy or we want this fascist shit show to continue.

I think his only concern is trying to figure out how to make his next few billion off of it.

Seven countries in five years during the Bush 43 admin. He was not a player. Iran and Lebanon are the last two in the list.
