What we accomplished with this war: Spent billions of dollars, lost 13 service members, waste tons of ammunition, creating worldwide inflation, alienating former allys. What Iran accomplished with this war: nuclear stockpile still intact, ballistic missile stockpile still intact, can bring the world to its knees using cheap off the shelf drones to close a critical water way. Yep, Trump was quite successful.
Thomas H.: you’re forgetting he took the public’s attention off of Epstein for a few months, and almost slid in a $1.8 billion slush fund for his buddies. But in the end, this will likely become an anchor for Vance, he will be required to explain that after all this, the US is not in a better position, China and Russia and North Korea know it, the Israelis are mad at us, Europe is mad at us, and Japan and Australia are mad at us. Farm prices and food prices will be higher. Yep, a huge beautiful win for the MAGAt President.
This war was a giant waste of time, money, valuable weapons and ultimately 13 lives. Netanyahu, talked Trump into this war appealing to his giant ego and telling him the regime would collapse once bombs started dropping and that Trump would be a hero and win the noble prize. Now here we are with little more to show for this effort then a vague promise and many contentious details yet to be worked out. I hope the media is relentless in asking how this is any better then the deal Obama got (through negotiation not bombs) and not let the spin masters make it sound like a big win for Trump because its not!
