15. That might happen in a sane world with sane leaders.
Sun Mar 8, 2026, 03:34 PM
Sunday

But consider.

All of this is a wet dream for Trump and all Republicans
who enjoy killing and inflicting hardship on people.

Bibi and Trump are megalomaniacal criminals trying
to stay in power and out of jail... with Trump raking
billions through mob boss tactics.

IOW, they are not going to quit; and Iran and the ME
are not going to fare well.

The USA might also collapse. Who knows what's going
on with out oil reserve.... Trump is playing games talking
about that too.
