Trump and Hegseth's "make-believe" war... [View all]
Brought to you by the Department of War and Orwell's 1984 president.
It doesn't matter who is dying on the ground or who will pay the price for their actions, it only matters that they have the best script for the media.
Hegseth yesterday, went on a rant about the "fake news" media. They were not reporting the way he wanted. He didn't like the way he was photographed so he kicked out a couple of reporters. He suggested alternative headlines for them.
Of course, the out-of-touch president was following his script. He was winning everything. He would accept nothing but "unconditional surrender". When that did not materialize, he came forward with more threats of annihilation.
This war is not real for these people. They are living in a make-believe world. Everything will be great and they will be celebrated as the greatest warriors of their time. People will die but it is a small price to pay.
The Pied Piper of Mar-a-Lago continues on his hell-bent destination.
