    Of course not - he doesn’t think anything through, ever. Like the overgrown toddler he is, he just does whatever his squalling ego demands at any given moment.

    I think the most likely scenario is that Netanyahu made Trump understand that Israel’s Epstein files are even more damning than the US’s, and if they were released, norhing was going to even be redacted, and everything since then has been Trump flailing around for excuses to do what Israel has been trying to con the US into doing for decades.

    Trump hasn’t thought through the endgame of shitting himself in public yet so what makes you think he’d care about what happens to Iran?

    Young politicians and leaders often say they plant trees whose shades will comfort future generations. These are people who have decades to give public service. Trump has a decade or less and can only hope his followers continue to wreak havoc in his wake. He’s more concerned with doing the most damage in the shortest amount of time.

    Yes- no matter the cost in working class lives, shareholder value will rise along with profit. They will always pick war as it is win win for them. Even if reps lose the next election - the dems will war just quieter.

    I mean does anyone really think that he thought this through? He’s basically rolling the dice with a feeling that it could work out to his benefit.
