Only a minority of Americans like this stupid war... and most of those are the ones that like whatever Trump tells them to like. Thanks, Mr. President, for sealing your own doom (and that of your party). Your lack of knowledge and intelligence has finally caught up with you.

We'll see when/if the Dems can finally pull their heads out of their asses. Until then, the Republican Party lives on and will do just fine

Finding common ground: I agree that a lot of Dems have their heads up their asses.

Now, do you still think this "war" is a good idea? Why or why not?

Still? I'm not sure I ever said I thought this war was a good idea.

Perhaps your enthusiasm for everything MAGA gives the impression that you support everything MAGA, which would include Trump's War of Bibi's Choice.

Not 100% sure but weren't you saying that this war is worth it in order to keep Iran from having nukes?

Or do you think the war is indeed a bad idea? (careful... depending on your answer, you may be "primaried")

Yes. That has been the official MAGA sanctioned talking point. Ignoring, of course, the earlier MAGA sanctioned talking points about how we bombed the Iranian nuclear program into oblivion last year.

Good morning everyone

Happy Groundhog's Day. Here's hoping Trump, like Bill Murray, eventually figures out how to navigate it.

Most, if not all wars, are neither entirely good nor bad. I'd prefer a country shouting "Death to America" in their government body to not have access to the ability to bring death to America. I'd also prefer there were no wars ever, anywhere. I've said repeatedly on this forum that I do not wish for the death of anyone and pushed back on others voicing their desire for certain people to be dead, that should be clue enough that I don't love war.

Trump is manipulating the public with affirmations of an impending deal in order to calm the markets before the Space X IPO.

But, you love Trump - to the point of praising his every move. Ergo the conclusion, based on this established pattern of behavior (not an assumption), that you at least tacitly support the war because your guy is all in for it.

I don't praise his every move, I am and have been critical of his handling of the Epstein files and I think it's dumb he tried to put his name on the Kennedy Center, for examples. Ergo your conclusion is wrong based on an incorrect assessment of information available to you.

I support the war for some reasons and oppose it for some reasons. Rarely are things black/white in life.

Are you critical of his handling of nipples? His name on the Kennedy Center is getting removed and will go the way of JoPa's statue at Penn State…..into the garbage bin.

If I implied that you love war, my bad. I doubt even Pete Hegseth loves war!

The question I meant to pose was, on balance, are you in favor of what we are doing over there (and the decision to do it), or are you against it? Sounds like, in a subsequent post, you said you have mixed feelings. Fair enough. Indeed, "most, if not all wars are neither entirely good nor bad".

I have been very much against this war, from day one. The one thing I haven't been able to reconcile, intellectually and philosophically, is that, the bombing we did there last year ("obliterating their nuclear capabilities"), I wasn't particularly against that. So what's okay and what's not and where do you draw the line? Just seems like we went too far this time, what with the "regime change" and all.

Time will tell. I will reserve total judgement for now, there are things I agree with and things I disagree with.
