Trump’s “outrageous” rhetoric unnerved critics, but it masked a blunt strategy: overwhelm Iran militarily, force leverage at the table, and leave opponents scrambling to keep up.
Pearl clutchers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your credibility. A week ago, on Easter Sunday—Easter Sunday, forsooth!—President Trump horrified delicate souls by issuing this minatory post on Truth Social:
Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F–kin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. That meanie used a bad word, called the Iranian mullahs “crazy bastards,” and taunted them by saying, “Praise be to Allah.” How disrespectful can you get?
There was worse to come. On Tuesday, as zero hour approached, President Trump went whole hog. “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will.”
Oh, oh, oh! Can you believe it? He just threatened to destroy the storied civilization of Persia, Cyrus the Great, Darius, and the Achaemenid Empire! The collective knickers of the anti-Trump establishment were twisted tight. He’s an “unhinged madman,” skirled some. “Apply the 25th Amendment and remove him from office,” burped others. Bill Kristol, the smarmy Yoda of the NeverTrump coven, urged top military leaders to disobey any such orders the president might issue. The frenzied knot of moralizing mouthpieces competed mightily to show the world how lustrous their consciences were....

Is JD home yet? They wanted the two weeks as a breather. They could do a lot in two weeks. Wait for arms from NK or chinuh to arrive. Couple shipments of manpads.
“Open the F–kin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell”
Only they didn’t and there wasn’t.
Blockading a blockade hardly lives up to the Armageddon-level hype of the Easter Sunday Truth Social post.
Don’t worry. We are in the process of opening it up ourselves. Keep up with the latest updates doomer. Iran has no leverage.
I think that that would be a great outcome.
But then there was no need for Vance to parlay in Islamabad and no need to demand allied assistance.
Days for ours and Israel to track personnel and equipment movements to develop new strike packages, but heck being negative is okay too😂
Because it’s nice to have allies but if they are too chicken to help out, which they have been exposed to be, then we have the stones to do it ourselves. Cmon, do we have to spell out the strategy to you?
Perhaps, but it did expose eu for what it is and what Trump has said it is
Ukraine is our war(full disclosure I support giving aid to Ukraine), but Iran and Hormuz (where they get most of their energy from) is not theirs???
Almost like Europe has a “Michigan problem “😎
Not being negative. Just a lot of opportunities, as you point out, to be taken advantage of. 😊👍🛫✈💣💥
Trump just gave our guys a few days off so they can reload, rearm, do some repairs and maintenance. And as the baddies come out of their hiding places, map those hiding places.
And he offered the baddies the opportunity for mercy, which they have turned down.
“the gas prices will become unsustainable”
in Tehran if we take out the Iranian refineries.
Apologize miss understood your post
Imagine the ants have been doing a lot of scrambling and hope that every movement has been monitored and categorized
Plus time to get naval assets in place, everything restocked, and Iranian regime to show the world exactly who they are.
Next moves will be interesting
Stay tuned oh instant gratification one.
“Bill Kristol, the smarmy Yoda of the NeverTrump coven, urged top military leaders to disobey any such orders the president might issue.”
This is impossible because, as we are regularly informed by the FReeper Allahu Akhbar Chorus, tricky sneaky greasy jewish NEOCONS(!) are always warmongers trying to get saintly white Christian straight men to die for Israel!!!

You think they’d lie? 😂👍
It wouldn’t gratify me to eradicate a civilization, but the threat of doing so has come and gone, and it’s not the first red line that’s evaporated in this war.
Shipments?
Trump has ordered a naval blockade.
😂 their Koran instructs them to, ask Jefferson 🤔 “… to the shores of Tripoli “
He's more like the smarmy Sméagol...
Make excuses. On Easter Sunday he was filthy mouthed, praising Allah as he conducted his war in behalf of the people who choose Barrabas.
Easter used to be sacred. So did putting your hand on the Bible when being sworn in.
I’ve never seen such a wasted opportunity as Trump and a Republican House and Senate. Wasted opportunities like never before, and week ask pay for a decade or more starting next January.
