Trump sold out.....

I'm not a fan of boots on the ground at all. Especially when it's declared as some kind of "nation building" effort. Fuck building Iran

bomb the fuck out of and let them rebuild their own fucking shithole

Neither am I. I just hope this ends well. That means the end of the Islamic revolutionary regime.

I did not want this action, but now that it has happened I want the Iranian government replaced.

This discussion is has taken many turns. I will only address the biggest present issue in Mr. Trump's presidency.

This war will all be for naught if the current Iranian government is still in power at the conclusion of hostilities.

The midterms are shaping up to be a rough outing for Republicans, according to CNN analyst Harry Enten.

On Thursday, Enten pointed to Americans' attitudes on the cost of living and a massive drop in satisfaction from just before the election in 2024 until March 2026.

While President Donald Trump enjoyed a three-point net positive on the issue of cost of living in October 2024, he now has a negative 41-point rating on the same issue. The rating is the worst recorded, said the analyst.

"I would say that this is the most troublesome sign that I have seen for the president of the United States and the Republican Party so far," said Enten.

"You can't win when you're 41 points below water on the cost of living."

Among independent voters, which many consider to be a bellwether for elections, the drop is even steeper. The president had a net positive rating of 11 points in 2024, but that has fallen by 71 points to a net negative rating of 60 points among independents for the cost-of-living question.

"This, my dear friends, is just a political nightmare waiting to happen for the Republican Party come the midterm election," Enten added.

This is very unfair. Until the war, gasoline prices have dropped, food inflation is third what it is in Canada, he gave workers more disposable income with no taxes on tips and overtime.
