Ain't no one buying a bull shit war with another middle eastern country. Trump would lose supporters, not the toadies on this site but he would lose some.

Pragidealist Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 I also don’t think this is a typical president. I don’t think anyone would want him leading a war Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titans279 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 I actually think Trump doesn’t want a war with Iran at all. Bolton and Pompeo probably do. Lots of establishment GOP do. This is could be a rare instance we’re happy it’s Trump and not Pence calling the shots. MadMax, tgo, and OILERMAN 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschool Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 It doesnt make sense. Iran has everything to lose. Has to be a rogue element right? titanruss 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iran is winnig the public perception war globally to the point our euro allies are torn trying to stay in the nuclear deal. Only Israel and Saudi Arabia share our current stance on Iran. Why would they throw it away to send a message? They cant win a war against the U.S. MadMax, reo, and OILERMAN 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mythos27 Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 I'd love to believe it's BS but the UK certainly has no incentive to push for war in America. Their assessment makes this an ugly situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like China in the trade war they know they have the upper hand because of the election. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
