Now:

'Lives of courageous American heroes may be lost'

Way back:

2024 campaign

Trump often drew lines of contrasts with his Republican primary opponents. In January 2024, at a New Hampshire rally, he referred to former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who was U.N. ambassador during Trump’s first term, as a “warmonger” whose mentality on foreign policy is, “Let’s kill people all over the place and let’s make a lot of money for those people that make the messes.”

During a Jan. 6, 2024, rally before the Iowa caucuses, Trump told supporters that returning him to the White House would allow the country to “turn the page forever on those foolish, stupid days of never-ending wars. They never ended.” Rolling out his foreign policy priorities during that campaign — something Trump’s orbit called “ Agenda 47 ” — he posted a video online in which he talked of how he was “the only president in generations who didn’t start a war.”

In that video, Trump called himself “the only president who rejected the catastrophic advice of many of Washington’s Generals, bureaucrats, and the so-called diplomats who only know how to get us into conflict, but they don’t know how to get us out.”

2024 campaign

In 2024, the votes of we USians mattered. Now, the only vote that matters is the one in Jerusalem.

In his speech, God on Earth Trump says he is going for "regime change". Iran is three times the size of Iraq. He thinks he is going to do the entire thing with air power? Can't be done. What he will accomplish is make large parts of Iran look like Gaza.

So, after expending so much ammo fighting Israel's wars, what will be left to back up Taiwan?

But then won't they be by Trump's definition 'suckers and losers'?

How do the MAGA folks avoid serious whiplash in following their guru?

------------------------

Trump said avoiding Sexually Transmitted Diseases was his personal Vietnam.

I'm sure Eric, Don Jr, and Baron Trump are beating the door down at their local Army Recruiter office. /sarcasm

I'm finding it amusing ( in a slightly horrified way ) to read MAGA twisting themselves into pretzels to justify their Peace President,
their Put America First President, sending American lives and treasure
into another Middle East conflict.

Regime change is needed in America.

It’s satire, but for some, a how-to guide or operating principle. See also: the Handmaids Tale.
