Iran and their allies perceive the US is bluffing.
And they’re right.
"Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt."
worse than you think - worse than just ‘bluffing’... it’s election strategy.
Former Obama Aide: Don’t Bomb Iran Oil Fields—Higher Gas Prices Bad For Biden!
Yesterday, we noted a hawkish Joe Scarborough calling for an aggressive response against Iran for the drone attack that killed three US soldiers and killed dozens of others in Jordan.
Jen Palmieri, Obama’s former Communications Director and another Morning Joe regular gave away the game, putting things in bald political terms.
Scarborough asked, “What’s the administration’s problem with going in and taking out some of their oil infrastructure?”
Responded Palmieri: “Higher gas prices.”
Scarborough: “I don’t care. Dead Americans.”
Palmieri: “Anytime you’re doing anything that’s going to mess with oil markets, higher gas prices are — can be an existential threat to a presidency.”
