No one, and no thing, is coming to help him this time.

Not his maga base, not a delay-able justice system, or the Supreme Court, not a friendly Congress, not any of our allies, certainly not Russia or China. Not public opinion. No one in his cabinet can fall on this sword for him.
He's put himself in a trap of his own making, and the whole world (including the Iranians) know it.

I'm not going to rejoice exactly, because a lot of people have died already and more are going to. But he did this to escape Epstien, and this isn't an escape, and he's realizing this trap might be just as bad. He's caught, he ****ing knows it, and there's nothing he can do. I'm not rooting for the Iranians, but NOW is when we need everybody in Congress that's not a 'foreign policy wonk' to start back in on epstien and ICE and everything else, because now he CANNOT escape the traps he's set for himself.
Lets finish him off.
'Let's kill him PROPERLY, this time.'

Is that a threat?

Wow! This DUmmie really believes that the Iran campaign is going badly. Even Al Jazeera has published an article by a UAE "foreign policy wonk" prof detailing how and why Trump's and Israel's strategy is working. DUmmie Volaris needs to stop snorting Iranian and Chinese not very I AI videos and memes. :mental: :mental: :mental:

As for "he did this to escape Epstien"(sic), DUmmie Volaris really does not get that there's nothing Epstein that Trump needs to "escape". DUmmie Volaris probably still believes in pee tapes and the Trump-Russia Collusion Delusion. :mental: :mental: :mental: :mental: :mental: :mental:

Dem Party True-Believers don't even notice when their puppeteers do total reversals.

For example, in January, February, and March 2020, the Dem Party line was that Trump was exaggerating what came to be called Covid and shutting down China travel was racist, racist, racist. Then in April, the Dem Party line reversed course and became, "Trump isn't doing enough!" and "Trump wasted two months doing nothing!" All lies, and I can show the news article receipts.

Along about September or October 2020, several Dem goobernors proclaimed that they did not trust Trump's Covid vaccines and would somehow have them tested by their states. Fast-forward to January and February 2021 and the Dem lie reversed to Trump having had no plan for distributing Covid vaccines ... despite millions having received their first dose before LIEden was inaugurated.

Your entire post hopes that our country fails.

I'm reasonably confident that the US Secret Service will be questioning the DUmp'Rat in detail on exactly what they mean and how they intend to achieve that end...

...at the bare minimum.

Not ... not any of our allies ...

Well, that aged poorly:

BREAKING: EU and Japan Flip, Pledge to 'Contribute' To Hormuz Protection

European leaders, including Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron, flatly rejected Donald Trump's request to provide escort support for commercial traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump responded by calling the US commitment to NATO's common defense into serious question, calling these countries "allies" in care quotes, and that the relationship had been proven a "one way street." Trump expanded on his remarks in a press avail at the White House, telling reporters that the Hormuz crisis was a "great test" of NATO's faithlessness.

Two days later, Europe has seemingly changed its tune:
...
The joint statement, published by the UK's Starmer government, appears to commit the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the Netherlands to participating in escorts through the Strait, emphasis mine:
...
That may not be an ironclad, explicit commitment to send naval assets to the Strait. It does, however, contradict the explicit refusals earlier this week from Starmer, Macron, and Germany's Friedrich Merz. European leaders wasted little time in making it clear that they did not see the war with Iran as "theirs," and scoffed at Trump's attempts to get them involved after hostilities had already started.

It fell to John Bolton to warn these allies that this argument would backfire in a big way with Trump. He's already skeptical about how NATO and Europe have stuck the US with the war in Ukraine, and Europe may have just handed Trump a precedent for telling them to solve the issue themselves. Reciprocity is the key to any alliance, after all:

Maybe someone reminded the posturing Euro-"Leaders" that the US is a net exporter of oil, and told them that much of the oil being carried through the Strait is "their" oil.
