War and simply killing the people in a geographic area is not in America’s interests?

Who, other than every non-MAGAt in the world, could’ve predicted war is not a universal answer for weak man-boys to get what they want.

Trump thinks he holds all the cards.

He honestly thinks he can do anything and the rest of the world will cave to his demands.

When you empower and give immunity to a total psychopath,
you will get the crime of the century.

How could so many go along with this madness without any pushback? They can't all be victims of blackmail or bribery

catering to every delusion and desire.
We know what throne the King died on.....
At least Elvis had talent.

(And I spelled sycophants as psychophants on purpose ).

From his echo chamber of sycophants and parasites to the Tech Broligarchy to an at least complicit if not state run media to the standing ovation he gets at dinner when he’s fleecing us for money (his weekend job).

No outside opinion is wanted or needed.

Trump goes where the money is.
Period. He doesn't need help with that.

Who can ever watch those videos of a ‘cabinet meeting’ where they line up to drop down and give appropriate ‘honors’ ( yeah, application of lips on the giant orange ‘Lord’) - makes you want to BARF!

Trump has to be the dumbest person in America.

So, this is really on you Bolton.

John Bolton is just flapping his gums about nothing. Everyone who's ever worked for Chump in ANY capacity, knows he won't listen to anyone or take anyone's advice. For Bolton to mention something he said to Chump in the first term is just ludicrous.

Now I call it dementia.
I’m his age.

That is super funny - no one can argue about that.

All you have to do is look at a map.

There are zero surprises!

Did you draw him stick-figures with a Sharpie?

He’s ignorant about pretty much everything.

I suspect Bolton is talking to 1-maybe get a job with Vance 2- trying to lay down defense tactics for his upcoming 2027 trial

( yes that is a Firefly quote massaged in there)

Trump will continue to ratchet the stakes up.
If he lands 5,000 Marines on Kharg Island- then what?
Iran will move them off. There is no neat and easy way that this ends.

He’s destroyed everything.

can you expect him to remember what his national security advisor say 8 years ago? People are so unfair to little Donny. Expecting him to understand that other people might not see how he has the very best of everything and they need to just do what he saids. How is he supposed to keep all these countries and presidents straight? So unfair.

They probably had to explain that Bolton told him attacking Iran would be very bad and he would wind up losing reelection. That, he listens to.

Not know that Trump has the attention span of a gnat?

He gonna get more and more unhinged now. Even more than he already is.

let alone with Bolton told him 6 years ago.

another indication that he isn't fit to be President.

Trump is demented, but he has had help from the neo-cons.

And that has brought neocons like Bolton and even Condaleeza Rice, out of hibernation.

he was at an "undisclosed location"!

And briefings are oh so boring.

But that's just giving him an excuse.

Bolton didn't dumb it down enough for Trump to understand the retaliation measures he was laying out. Trump never shows the gravitas that situations like this call for. I remember Kissinger talking about the Gulf of Hormuz some 50 years or so ago. Something I have alway wondered is whether anybody ever studied the feasibility of blasting a canal through that tip, taking that hazardous tip out of play. The current National Security Advisor has been thrown under the bus by Trump, so why hasn't he resigned? He is being blamed for thes mess.

is the Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff - https://www.democraticunderground.com/10143633393

Got another book coming out?

Fuck off, Bolton.
