Trump is maestro. He raised the military action and rhetoric to a crescendo by saving the airmen and threatening to end civilization then at the peak waves his wand into a decrescendo by agreeing to the cease fire. Trump is a genius.
No Trump is a fool.
I was ready to "high-five" him after seeing video of those those B-52s taking off in the UK and heading for Iran to finish it off, only to learn this morning that Trump recalled them and the other strategic strike packages and snatched defeat from the jaws of victory by allowing the IRCG to turn the Persian Gulf into a toll road.
And then in his Truth Social post crowing about his own blinking, he says that "There's big money to be made."
How is THAT winning? What happened to saving the Iranian civilians after telling them "not yet" and to "stay in doors," and demanding "unconditional surrender" from the IRGC?
TACO Tuesday, as always.
