JUST IN: Trump Admin Reportedly Making ‘Heavy Preparations’ for Putting Boots on the Ground in Iran - Lemmy.ca

Boots on ground will run into artillery and drones.

It’s like they learned nothing from watching Russia and Ukraine.

Iran also has a lot experience with drone warfare since they’re supplying Russia with drones and have people operating and learning in an active war. Meanwhile the US hasn’t really fought against drones in a real war and they refused help from Ukraine one of the countries at the forefront of drone warfare.

I wonder how long will Trump stay in office when the internet starts getting videos of American soldiers getting killed by drones just like the ones with Russian soldiers we have right now.

Until he dies.

If un-armed Americans getting killed at home didn’t get him removed, armed Americans getting killed overseas won’t get him removed, no matter what happens he will refuse to leave office alive.

There’s 300 million of you and 1 of him, do the whole world a favour AND FUCKING K-[Redacted for legal reasons but you get the idea].

The people who got Trump elected will find another hack celebrity.

Trump has no magic powers beyond “name recognition”, really, another “star”. There will be another. And another. And another. Trump will be replaced immediately. The same filthy rich vampires will continue to “donate” and keep them elected.

USA is openly pay-for-play now, they don’t even bother to hide it. Look who shared the stage with him when he won… and those were the dumb ones.

when the internet starts getting videos of American soldiers getting killed by drones just like the ones with Russian soldiers we have right now.

The difference is the videos will only come from official Iranian government sources since there is otherwise an internet blackout in Iran, to which the Trump admin will obviously respond “it must be AI, cannot be trusted, Iranian government propaganda.” Meanwhile, like during Iraq, “embedded” US journalists will present a more rosy view of the conflict for US viewers at home while minimizing coverage of mounting evidence that the stories are true as US soldiers start leaking video themselves as conditions worsen.

He will stay in office until the midterms or Democrats are lucky enough to swing the midterms instead of handing Trump his stupid shit SAVE Act to fuck up the midterms. If that doesn’t happen, he will be in office until he is dead, and there is almost assuredly no coming back from this, despite how notoriously stupid the entire Trump administration is.

A prolonged conflict in Iran could spell total global financial disaster. Like, really bad.

best time to buy is when there is blood in the streets, republicans are disaster capitalists…they’re actively trying to collapse the markets so they can profit from it.

they do it everytime they’re in power, it’s a pretty obvious cycle tbh…every recession the last 50 years happened under a republican administration

You’re almost there!

Just wait until you learn about THE FED and the actual disaster capitalists, like JP Morgan, Deutsch Bank, and so on.

They’re international and they run the show (and the US dollar) “under” every Democratic admin. (bOtH sIdEs, sitting at table with Nazis, etc.)

Look at what happened after The Great Depression, and in 2008 under Obama, and our other bubbles. Who profited from those bubbles bursting? Why are they in charge of the US Dollar?

It’s a mystery, I’m sure they’re looking out for us

Oh sweet, the “good cop” term is on the way to save the day! I am sure that they will fix everything and punish those bad cops this time! I CAN FEEL IT

Trump has raped children, is a convicted felon, and demolished part of the White House. He’s threatened reporters with execution, demanded personal enrichment as part of foreign trade, incited a terrorist attack on the Capitol building, and then pardoned the terrorists convicted of their crimes. He has openly solicited bribes and disclosed classified data to our enemies that resulted in the deaths of American agents abroad.

His supporters will not move an inch regardless of how many soldiers they see dying.

I’ve been around for over 4 decades and the only thing I’ve ever seen conservatives give a fuck about were gas prices, unborn babies (specifically), and people with not white skin becoming president.

Note: Specifically unborn babies because they don’t give a flying fuck about kids after they’re born. That’s why they voted for a party that is currently obliterating child cancer research and are against free school lunches.

Guns and hating any sort of liberal thought.
I genuinely disagree only because, for so many of his supporters, it is their children. I don’t think it will change them as people or their politics as a whole but it will effect Republican chances in the next election. If we have legitimate elections at all. I’m almost certain there will be armed feds at polling stations to “protect them” and fearmongering about Iranian hackers tampering with the results.
Yeah but this could make gas prices go up.

He is doing what putin tells him.

And to those who say that Russia and Iran are allies. Russia was never a true ally with anyone, it is just partnership of convenience. US destroying itself in Iran has massive benefit for Russia.

And the fact that US did this and also lifted sanctions on Russia and Belarus is clear demonstration that US is ruled by Russian agent.

Please just think about this for 5 minutes.

Russia’s economy is about the same size as California’s. They can no longer afford the President, Russia needs to step it up and give him a jet, a few hotels, or something to compete.

It’s all legal, none of this matters.

The US military has long been obsessed with World War II era tactics. Which essentially amounts to “We’ve got more troops than you, and we’ve given them bigger guns”.

But this strategy hasn’t been relevant since the end of the Cold War. Why would I care how many soldiers you have stationed at an important facility when I can just blow said important facility up with my big bomb? Their presence is irrelevant. Now that drone combat is so prevalent the number of troops you have is even less relevant.

Iran has essentially managed to defeat the United States without any of their troops moving beyond their border.
