Also, I was responding to another poster's claim that Iran charging tolls "is not a problem".

That was me. LOL.

I think that at least politically, it is a major problem for Trump and for Republicans.

Then they should have thought about that before they embarked on this idiocy. If the report in the NYT article posted here yesterday is accurate, this is precisely why J.D. Vance was opposed to the military action in the first place.

It's also a problem in terms of how the rest of the world, allies and otherwise, would perceive Trump's judgment and willingness to follow through on threats.

Trump getting humiliated as a result of his own hubris and his own unwise decisions might be the best thing that could happen as far as this goes.

Child:

1) You say they, not we. Says something about you.

2) Your calling out Trump's stopping rogue regimes bent on getting nuclear weapons to use in their continuing 47 year campaign to fund terrorists, spread jihad, and kill westerners as "idiocy" also says something about you.

I think permitting Iran to develop a nuclear bomb and long-range ballistic missiles with which to deliver them, especially while still under the control of an expansionist Islamic and anti-American regime - would have been the real idiocy. And that was inevitable had we not acted.

Is your Iranian bunker air conditioned?
