Speaking at a Pentagon briefing on the Iran war, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was asked about the confusing surrounding negotiations with Iran and if there’s a way to move forward without seriously injuring civilians.

“I didn’t mean it flippantly when I said, in the meantime, we’ll negotiate with bombs.”

So domestically let’s kill everything green, tank the economy and have zero domestic energy policy. Then let’s piss off all of our allies by threatening Greenland and flip flopping more times than can count on Ukraine.

Next let’s act on a gut feeling fueled by a genocidal Prime Minister who is leading Trump around by the nose ring secured through his taint. Light the region on fire and say we don’t need allies. Wait we do need allies. Wait we don’t need allies. Wait screw you. I set your house on fire. Turned off your water now you figure out how to put it out.

He doesn’t even realize how connected our energy production is to the world w plans to increase that. Not to mention the other products impacted.

And then once the hard shi+ is needed. When we need a leader w fortitude and integrity. He advocates leaving and leaving us in the worst and weakest international situation maybe in the history of our nation. If not the weakest it’s certainly second by a fraction.

And Magastani’s are ok w just leaving???

You couldn’t hand China and Russia a cheaper better outcome if you tried.

Wanna check China? All’s they have to do is release a virus that’s cheap and less than 5% mortality rate.

Wanna check Russia? Now all they have to do is get their ally Iran to choke off Middle East product shipments and threaten US allies in the region.

So basically China and Russia during this sad sack’s first and second terms have learned cheap virus and cheap ally pressure. Meanwhile Mango Mussolini is going to spend north of $1.5T on fancy weapons that he has now shown to be of no consequence.

Cool story. A little nutty but cool.

What do you suggest that doesn't require a time machine.

Let’s start w not voting for dip sh!+’s going forward. Any ties to Trump or MAGA. You mention Trump or MAGA or “woke” in a campaign add and you don’t get votes.

You actually sit down and listen, no lecturing or sh!+ posting from your golden toilet at 1 am. Listen to your allies. How would they solve the problem. If you think Trump or this admin can then you score lower than he does on the dementia test.

Actually use diplomacy w Iran and your Gulf allies. Actually work. Do the hard stuff bc if you don’t you’ve screwed us for decades.
