"By Donald Trump’s own admission, he was caught completely by surprise that Iran struck back against other Gulf nations."

He didn't think that US military bases would face retaliation? Or that he would be putting Americans at risk?

"Within the first two weeks of the war, Iran’s attacks on U.S. military bases caused an estimated $800 million in damage, according to a report by the Center for Strategic and International Studies and a BBC analysis."

@CStamp

nope, he "didn't think," people with dementia can't think & people with malignant narcissism can't think about anything other than themselves...

the problem isn't that an evil man can't & won't ever think before he acts, that's a given & a disease symptom, the problem is that there is not one courageous law enforcement officer in the land with the power of arrest who will arrest him or any GOP openly taking bribes & trafficking women

@peachfront Not just him, but none of the cosplayers around him gave any thought of the repercussions of their actions.

@CStamp

all they care about is filling their own pockets, & belonging to the GOP elite is a license to take bribes & empty the US treasury into their pockets

our military & our justice system both have a duty to act but they will never, ever do the right thing when the alternative is to join the corrupt at the feeding trough

i am thoroughly disgusted...
