I think I'm beginning to "get it" :

If you threaten a regime that if it doesn’t investigate your political opponent you’ll withhold the much-needed aid, and then give them the money anyway, then it’s “no harm, no foul”. If a regime launches missiles at your airbase and there are no casualties then again “no harm, no foul”.

This can be rather fun for some people. For others, a living nightmare.

It's as if we are living in a version of

the Man in the High Castle

What dimension/universe are we living in? Can I emigrate over to the better universe where things are relatively saner? Please?

This is a combination of the Bizarro world, Monty Python, the Marx Brothers, MAD Magazine, and Cracked. Did I forget National Lampoon?

Oh come on, folks...

This war is only gonna take two, maybe three days at the most. Look, Trump knows more about the militaries of the world than anyone including his own generals. They’ll just scramble the B-52’s and those planes you can’t see even when you’re looking right at them.... you know they have beeps coming out of them so the pilots and mechanics can find them on the tarmac...and in no time Hell on Earth will be unleashed. Meanwhile since the Iranians have never considered this possibility of dealing with President Superman, they’ll be so flustered that they’ll just give up, sign a treaty that will allow Trump Hotels, Resorts, and Golf Clubs to be built in all major cities.

What could go wrong?
