“If You Think It Was Weak Not To Bomb Iran, Remind Yourself How Iraq Turned Out “

And the IRI knows that’s how Trump feels, hence their continued bad behavior. Sanctions alone will not make them stop.

If Lindsey starts singing “bomb bomb Iran”, call an exorcist.

linda, you have little, if any affect on President Trump's plans. He WILL NOT turn into a hawk just because you want him to.

Lindsey

Graham

Ping!

Want on or off Linda's fav ping list? Just FReepmail me.

Remember that linda is up for reelection in 2020.
Remember also that linda is writing a Red Flag bill.

President Trump is NOT a dove. But, neither is he a war hawk. President Trump is a Pragmatist/Realist.
As a business mogul he is instinctual in evaluating the CBA. Cost Benefit Analysis.
As an entrepreneur he is not risk adverse but, his risk taking is calculated.
Everything President Trump does is calculated. From his tweets, to his verbal statements, to his actions.89
All with CBA in mind.

I think Graham masterminded the FISA abuses and only tried to be a bad-ass to save his ass. I don’t think he flipped at all.

Endorsing Bush League Republicans doesn’t gain him anything and it is precluding our ability to drain the swamp by Cantorizing the weasels who vote for amnesty and every war elsewhere.
I hope he stops doing it, at least before the primary.

It’s hard to keep up with everybody’s ideology on this going or not going to war issue. You’ve got Romney not liking Bolton getting fired but he doesn’t want to attack Iran. Not surprising about Linda though. He always wants to go to war. I’d keep an eye on Trump. He may be playing the Iranians and making them think he’s going to go easy on them. If the Mullahs try something else and it makes oil go to $100 a barrel that could hurt the economy and give the Rats something to really run on. It’s not just gas prices going up but it will reverberate through all aspects of the market and economy. What will we do then?

Few people have been as wrong on foreign policy over the last few years as the neocons and @Liz_Cheney. The Twitter exchange represents a real and significant debate on the future of our foreign policy between realists like myself and #NeverTrumper neoconservatives like Cheney.— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) September 13, 2019

I'm totally OK with Graham disagreeing with Trump on certain foreign policy decisions, just like I was OK with Bolton's countervailing opinions.

Trump should listen to all advisers who have America's interests at heart, and internalize their input before making his decisions. I think he's done that admirably to this point.

Disagreement is absolutely fine.

I just wish Lindsey would get busy with issuing subpoenas as Judiciary Committee Chairman to get to the bottom of the Deep State coup and leave foreign policy decisions to PDJT!!!

I received this tonight from a fellow I know well and it certainly has a bearing on any decisions involving Iran... http://godreports.com/2019/09/fastest-growing-church-has-no-buildings-no-central-leadership-and-is-mostly-led-by-women/?fbclid=IwAR1WKu

Here is the first line of the article... “For the last few years, researchers have credited the underground church in Iran as the fastest growing Christian church in the world.”

I wonder how much of this is true and how well do we really know the people in Iran? One has to think that this is a place that will eventually implode all on its own (in fact quickly with God’s help)....

Iran is the number one exporter of terrorism. They are developing nukes and ICBMs, they are led by religious fanatics who believe out is their moral responsibility to end the world sop as to usher in the last Imam. They re not Iraq Mr. Trump

The Bush family became wealthy dealing with the Saudis in the oil business. So instead of holding the 9/11 Saudis accountable, Bush invaded their enemy Iraq. Despite having all that wealth and a huge cache of America’s most sophisticated weaponry the 9/11 Saudis cannot defeat starving Yemini rebels or defend themselves. Trump has to do business with them but he is not Bush and understands their vile nature.

Iran is striking out in the Gulf and at the 9/11 Saudis because the sanctions are working and devastating their economy. If the mullahs and the 9/11 Saudis want to fight, there will be temporary disruptions to the world oil market but eventually the oil will flow. No American human or material treasure should be sacrificed. Good opportunity for the US to unravel from the Mideast entanglement.

Let the Saudis fight this; let the Brits fight this; let the French, Germans and any other weak-kneed Euro trash fight this. Thanks to Donald Trump we are now INDEPENDENT from these cretins. Let others bleed out. I am sick and tired of my country being expected to do the heavy lifting in every skirmish. Do your damn selves. We've sold and provided you cowards the equipment i.e. fighters (F15s for the Saudis) to stand on your own two feet.

OR let the Israelis loose on those savages. Whatever the decision it's time that America let those affected do their own damn fighting. SICK OF IT....

When I came back from being in one of the episodes of this war in the Mideast a lot of people were saying it was a war for
Oil. As if it were a bad thing to admit. Like there was a secret. Like I had been party to some covert corruption

Of course it was a war for oil. Do we not depend on oil?

I said let’s get off of depending on those maniacs for oil.

Clinton increased our dependence on Mideast oil after desert storm.

Yet people - the same whiners- adored him

Of course Trump is doing the job that no corrupt president would do from Clinton through the Bushes to Obama.

Because Trump works for us. And because he is not an idiot prolonging our dependency. On these wackos like his addictive corrupt deceptive greedy weak predecessors

The only mystery is why do people hate him.

Iran should be annihilated along with 90% of the Middle East. It would save a lot of $$ and lives in the long run.
