Lengthy but good read. There have been bad political leaders who did terrible things but not since 1945 has the world been held hostage to whim of a sociopath.

How many millions did that cost us?

Eric Trump said he got the job through nepotism. Pot meet kettle.

Billions.

Trump can fix this with a Sharpie Marker

Still no plan to evacuate stranded Americans. Trump and Rubio fired much of experienced professionals in State Department and National Security Council, leaving positions open or filled with inexperienced unqualified toadies. They are saying events happened too quickly to plan evacuation, that they couldn't predict Iran would retaliate, that people should go home commercial when there are no commercial flights.
War on whim of sociopath. No planning.
Closing Strait of Hormuz was Rubicon no previous president dared risk. It could crash world economy and lead to world war.
War on whim of sociopath. No planning.

Today oil prices have eclipsed $100 a barrel. The G7 (Formerly G20 when the US had a decent President) is contemplating opening strategic oil reserves. Brought the price down overnight from $119 a barrel.

Who among us remembers a time there was not a war in the Middle East somewhere between some factions there that was not being managed by either the US or Russia?

The bombing that killed the girls was apparently a so called double tap. Reportedly most of the girls survived first strike and teacher's gathered them in prayer hall, which had sturdiest construction. A second hit leveled it. Target chosen by AI. No Nuremberg for a computer program. No accountability.

Technically he's right. Of course that's completely irrelevant to the current situation of widening humanity-threatening conflicts.

Eric Trump said he got the job through nepotism.

Finally some refreshing honesty. But which of Eric's jobs is Eric talking about?

Believe it or not, this is a variation of a tactic that's been used in combat for centuries, like straw men or burning hundreds of campfires.

It WWII, the Allies had balloons of tanks in England to cover their numbers prior to Normandy invasion.

Absolutely, the tactic I get.

That we still fall for it? Not so much...

The most important thing will be that he can point to $7 gas under Obama's third term in order to drum up a ton of donations and "patriotic purchases" from the racist imbeciles.

Doesn't matter if Trump caused the war that raised the prices. They aren't smart enough to see that.

I thought it was just going to be for a couple weeks?
