Who Will Take The Next Shot… And Why?

[BEZARK]

So many reasons.

An infuriated MAGA would be interesting.

“He lied to us!!”

“Trump weighs Iran war expansion” — Fox

[Rick Richardson]

Israel is the monkey in the room with a monkey wrench to toss about to keep this escapade going.

[BEZARK]

Too true.

I'm sure Trump's cadre of Yes-Men -- the only people he ever listens to besides Netanyahu and Putin -- have constantly reassured him that the War On Iran has been an unconditional Glorious Victory all-around; the greatest victory since the end of World War II. 

And everyone is seeing an economic boom from the bombing booms. At least, everyone who counts, like his Big Oil, arms industry, and crypto billionaire buds. (The economy kind of sucks pig balls for the other 99% or so, but what of it? 

What have they done lately for their Glorious Leader?

As a previous president put it: "Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what your country and you can do for Donald Trump!"

Thank you for so many years of wonderful writing.

Thank you for saying so, Plainol.

Even if no one had ever read any of my posts, this place has been such a great outlet for my thoughts over the years. But I can't deny that it feels good to be appreciated for some of them. Your own intelligent input has been growing scarcer over the last year or two, which is a little distressing.

I would have gone crazy -- even crazier than I already am -- if the Forum hadn't been here. For that I thank Euwe and Mags.

Lobo, over the years I have used your posts without attribution because 

I want people to think they were my ideas. I really enjoy your perspectives..

Though I guess that's because there are fewer and fewer people here for you and me to respond to. Especially on the MAGA side. Which is most distressing.
