  1. 3000 here, 8000 there, 10000 the next day, it’s all just leading to the same thing. We are invading Iran.

  2. Please MAGA and all the people who want this war go sign up, they move the sign up age to 42.

  3. Well, I was informed that we had hit them with untold might and force the likes of which had never been seen before.

    So I guess we’re sending these 10,000 for support and to help clean up.

    This administration is full of sycophants, pedophiles, and murderers.

  4. What even is this news site? I’m not saying I doubt them sending 10k troops but this is just an ad-riddled paragraph quoting the WSJ without actually linking to any news.

    A land invasion will be a complete disaster. Trump is just trying to escalate his bluster in the hope it will pressure Iran to cave on key demands so Trump can claim victory—which he will do in any event

  6. I know Trump and Hegseth are idiots, but what are the opinions on the US military leadership that are actually planning this thing? Why aren’t they in the news?

    Of course, they’ve painted themselves into a corner and now they have to put boots on the ground.

    Russian plan proceeding.

    All this BS charade to drag things out so that Russia can restock its coffers, degrade the US military and siphon weapons from Ukraine to the ME.

    Trump and Hegseth – Russian stooges and colossal traitors to their country.

  9. This isn’t anywhere near enough forces to conquer and occupy Iran. It took Shock and Awe and an invasion force of 160,000 troop three weeks to topple the Iraqi government. Followed by a long and deadly occupation.

    Low Prices Trump. High Prices Kamala.

    No New Wars in the Middle East.

    Am I right, magats?

    Year 2045:

    Supreme AI cyborg clone Emperor Trump sends another 10,000 human sacrifices to the Iranian desert, says it will help global energy prices.

    Insane number, but also a fraction of what would be needed for a ground invasion. Seems like an invasion of Kharg island, leading to a costly occupation while more troops die because more are in harms way, pushing the US closer and closer to an invasion of the main land.

  13. Barron is young and healthy. He should really set the example for the youth by being the first to deploy to Iran.

  14. It’s gonna be hilarious if the pendulum swings back to a democrat next presidency and all the right wing fuck nuts will be screeching to “end foreign wars” or “the democrats occupation of Iran”

    “Gas and food prices are this high because of the Democrats invasion of Iran!!!”

    This is assuming republicans don’t steal the election…

    lol They’re just slow-walking us into another fucking middle east war after explicitly campaigning against it. Amazing

  16. Effervescentgravy on

    540,000 troops at the peak of the Vietnam war. In a country far smaller and less populated. And the US still lost. It’s delusional to think this will go any other way.

  17. nobody wants this

    Repubs also hate it but won’t admit they hate it.

    just imagine if Biden was doing this. ALL americans would be against it.

    THATs how you know the repub party is a cult.

    and ill die on that hill

  18. The hubris is off the scale from Trump, the GOP and even many on here.

    Iran is not Iraq, it’s not Afghanistan. It isn’t a bunch of goat herders or poorly equipped conscripts.

    It is a country of 90 million patriotic people. The regime may be tyrannical but don’t believe that these people will greet Americans as saviours. They saw what happened in Iraq.

    Zelensky was correct when he was ambushed in the oval office last year, this war will be coming to the US, and here we are.

    Trump needs to reopen the strait. All this talk of the US not needing Gulf oil is irrelevant. The price of a barrel is the same for everyone. That’s unless you want to sell it in another currency, maybe the Chinese yuan?…

    Boots on the ground is now a certainty, likely the islands in the actual strait.

    Are the American public prepared to see US soldiers being killed by fpv drones like in Ukraine? Cause that’s what’s about to happen.

    What Trump sees as troops that are expendable are in reality other peoples children, fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, friends. Good an honest folk who will be sent to the grinder to satisfy his ego and enrich his nasty friends.

    Their blood and the blood of all of those in the Middle East is on trumps hands and all the hands of those that voted for him. I will never forgive them for what they have done with their hatred and ugliness. They will find no friend in me.

    Don’t worry guys! The war has both already been won and ceasefire negotiations to stop the war are going so well!

    The war is over. We won. The have nothing. They are begging us for a deal. We want help from NATO. We don’t need help. We already won. We need more money from congress. We won so much. We are sending 10.000 troops. We obliterated everything. We will give IRAN 1 week. We will give Iran 48h. We will extend it to April. We won so much.

    Dear Trump supporters,

    Remember in 2024 when you guys kept saying things like “no new wars” and “im voting for Trump for peace” and “Harris will bring wwlll”? Remember when you put those stickers on gas pumps and steaks and were sooo upset by the price of eggs and bacon? Remember when you said that we should put America first and focus on our issues here at home? Remember when you said we shouldnt be giving handouts to other countries and we need to stop the waste? Remember when you said we had to focus on the deficit and get our finances in order and Trump was the guy to do it?

    Why in tf does none of this matter to you now? Why is it okay with you that you look completely ridiculous being okay with the current administration? Aren’t you tired of defending him over and over and over again? Should you have to?

  23. The majority of Trump supporters are not willing or able to admit they were wrong about anything. They’re incapable of it.
