Does Trump think this will make the war more popular? It’s just speeding up how quickly he’s wasting our taxpayer dollars. Those strikes cost hundreds of millions of dollars, *at least*. Possibly billions of dollars.
How did nobody tell him that shutting down the Strait of Hormuz would be the first thing Iran would do? How could that possibly have come as a surprise to him?
If I knew that, and you knew that, surely _someone_ in the White House knew that?

Israel will tell him where to send US Troops and Trump will pass it onto Putin to make sure the boss is informed.

This Iran thing was supposed to be done in time for the Sunday shows, but Trump and American interests have strung together a series of fuel-related fails. Strait of Hormuz. Refueling deaths of American servicemembers.
Trump is desperate for a ‘win’ so he can exit Iran war in a high note, and will green light any attack plan that could possibly give him that cover. Not great for Americans.

1. *Liberal democracy* –
Competitive elections, rule of law, strong civil liberties, independent courts, and real checks on executive power.
2. *Flawed / weakening democracy* –
Elections still matter but institutions start eroding. Polarization rises, norms break down, corruption grows, and minority rights get chipped away.
3. *Illiberal democracy* (**you are here**) –
Elections still occur but civil liberties, press freedom, and institutional independence are significantly undermined. Leaders openly attack courts, media, and election legitimacy. The system still functions but is heavily distorted.
4. *Competitive authoritarianism* (**you are fast-approaching here**) –
Elections still exist and opposition parties technically operate, but the playing field is badly tilted. The ruling faction uses state power, propaganda, legal harassment, and institutional capture to maintain power. Opposition can still win, but it becomes increasingly difficult.
5. *Electoral authoritarianism* –
Elections occur but are largely performative. Media, courts, and election systems are controlled enough that real power change is unlikely.
6. *Full authoritarianism / dictatorship* –
Opposition is suppressed or banned, elections are meaningless or absent, and the executive rules with minimal constraints.

America builds the most powerful military in human history and then puts this asshole in absolute control of it. Fuck MAGA and everyone stupid enough to support it for inflicting this on the world.

Wait, I thought we were mission accomplished here? Republicans, care to explain why your dear leader is a pedophile and runs up your gas prices? I’m sure you care about one of those two things.

How long do you all think it’s going to take before he tries ordering a nuclear strike on Iran?
Personally I think he’s already thinking about it but we won’t hear anything until sometime next month.

In 10 days everything worldwide will have gone to shit. There will be discussions of removing this asshat from office. He’ll double down, China will feel the impact on their economy and I suspect something will be done within 30-45 days from this point forward. He’s going to piss of some country enough to garner change. This is going to be the catalyst that removes Trump. Calling it.

He is panicking because his generals are telling him the only way out is ground operations. One of the largest since Vietnam.
He is hoping he can bomb Iran into compliance.
