Trump's Second Term

[Ziggurat]

So why is Donald so eager to steal the oil from Venezuela and Iran?

One possible reason is to back China into a corner.

Trump: "We took a little excursion because we felt we had to do that to get rid of some evil. I think you'll see it's going to be a short-term excursion. Short term. Short term!"

One possible reason is to back China into a corner.

So not because he's a greedy, avaricious criminal?

"There's something wrong with those people. And we can't let them ever be in a position where they can lead this country again."

Teo weeks!

Trump: "Operation Midnight Hammer was pretty good too, right? That was when we knocked out their nuclear potential. That was a big day because if we didn't do that they would've had a nuclear weapon within two weeks."

Hegseth on Iran:

I’m a man of faith who encourages our troops to lean into their faith. Rely on God.
There’s no atheists in foxholes. Your mortality is right in front of you.

My Christian faith, faith in general, is important to Trump. It’s important in our fighting ranks to give them perspective on human nature, on their own humanity, on our own mortality.

We lost a lot of that with sort of self-help, self-esteem nonsense, which is not what troops need.

Thus speaketh a man who's never been in a foxhole.

It's more fun killing sailors

Trump: "I said, 'Why don't we just capture the ship? We could use it. Why did we sink them?' He said, 'It's more fun to sink them.' They like sinking them better."

Trump: "We knocked out 46. Their terrorist leaders are gone or counting down the minutes until they will be gone. Think of it -- we had leaders, and they're gone. Then we had new leaders, and they're gone. And now nobody has any idea who the people are that are gonna be the head of the country."

Trump: "The hardest thing is to go to Dover because Dover is where, for the most part, a lot of the fallen, the warriors, the great young people that have died in war, they seem to mostly go to Dover"

Not enough winning

Trump: "We've already won in many ways, but we haven't won enough"

A step above

Trump: "They emptied their mental institutions. They emptied their insane asylums. That's a step above a mental institution. They emptied them all right into our country."

Wait... did you think he gets to personally keep seized oil?

Mike Johnson speaks at Trump's property in Doral: "We're in the middle of the new golden era, the new golden age"

Put marauding gangs on your streets, pissed off your allies, dumped the developing nations you were helping, killed a bunch of people, stole one neighbour's oil reserves, started a war you keep announcing you've won and then announcing you're redoubling your attacks... It's a ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ golden age folks. Why aren't you all partying in the streets?

 

[Andy_Ross]

Trump on Iran: If we didn't go in, they would have come in after us. Within a week, they were going to attack us.

Well, that's what he seems to think

He's President, everything is his.

One possible reason is to back China into a corner.

Because that worked great with Imperial Japan.

Why does he want to do that to China, exactly?

Trump: "I think they were looking to take over the Middle East ... we have pretty good proof"

Trump: "I think we have a country that's as hot as it has ever been, ever before, maybe hotter. And I say it all the time, the king of Saudi Arabia said it to me better than anybody could say it, I get along with him very well, he said, 'You know, a year a half ago, your country was dead.'"
