In reply to the discussion: Joe Biden's comments on US strike and killing of Qassem Soleimani [View all]peggysue2
(12,574 posts)Soleimani was not a good guy; he had plenty of blood on his hands. There's absolutely nothing wrong in pointing that out. But . . . an action like this has consequences that many of us (including Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren) seriously doubt that Trump and his lackey crew have prepared for or have taken into consideration. Acting on impulse is not a strategy. As I mentioned in the OP, the schoolyard bully technique may be effective in the schoolyard but not on the world stage where things can go sideways very easily. Trump is an ignoramus, devoid of any historical/geopolitical knowledge. His only concern is his ego, looking like the tough guy. We're about to experience the blowback from that infantile perspective and the cheering warhawks in the GOP.
Good one on Warren! And Biden with his statement makes it clear that he fully understands the ramifications of a reckless Commander-in-Chief with a serious ego problem.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
