That is an insane claim—wild propaganda—zero proof.

We got baited and switched.

Deal with it.


Trump never promised “no war”. No one can promise that, because it only takes one side to start a war. He promised no more forever wars. He had to take out Iran. It would have been really, really stupid not to.

History will bear it out. When an enemy wages war on you for 47 years, and the same enemy repeatedly desires your destruction, whose ideology calls for your destruction, and who is on the verge of obtaining nuclear weapons, it would be stupid not to act.

Do you really think the Iranian Theocracy would not have done all it could to destroy us? They continue to do so, but their abililty to project force outside of Iran is severely diminished. They are not concerned with the welfare of their people. They want to bring about the apocalypse. They have repeatedly said so.

They have been the biggest exporter of terror on the planet. They are not stupid. They are evil.

Could the war have been sold better? Yes. Did the Iranians and our other adversaries do everything in their power to make the war painful to the USA, so as to work the politics against President Trump? Yes they did.

Their masterful use of propaganda along with the Democratic Party worked wonderfully.

"Trump never promised 'no war.'"

True. He said: “I’d love not to use” the U.S. military to attack Iran, “but sometimes you have to.”
