I hate so much 2000’s election. W Bush shit on the Constitution to such a degree that now Trump can get us involved in a military affair, not with the explicit consent and will of Congress, but with a fucking tweet.
Gwb you started this, that and the rigged supreme Court. If I were of voting age back then I would’ve rioted. I asked my dad why he didn’t, despite being a huge 2A proponent, and all he could give me was less respect for him.
I thought Reagan started all this? Or Nixon? If only we could agree (not that this matters literally at all at this point) in who actually started us down the path of fascism. It’s so hard to keep the demagogues in order these days…
Or we could just agree that shit’s fucked and we need to do something about it without trying to point fingers or blame on any specific person in the last 60 years who is already dead and long gone.
Americans are just fucking stupid. I’m in the South and just bought a gun because the KKK originated within 30 min of me, and statistically, half my neighbors are nuts. I’m not sure if someone will not kill me on a daily basis. This country is unsafe for some people. I’m white, a citizen, and from the South too, and I’m still scared.
Maybe they did, but 2000 and 2004 were the first elections I was truly aware of, and intelligent enough to know something should’ve been done. I voted for the first time in 2006 and haven’t missed an even year voting cycle since. I stopped asking my father why he didn’t support peaceful protests happening in areas near to him about 10 years ago, and cut off all contact 6 years ago. I’ve not been more at peace since
I honestly think that he’s trying to get Iran to blockade the Strait of Hormuz to drive up the price of oil, to the benefit of Russia and also U.S. oil producers.
This isn’t the US’ war, why would Trump be making any demands?
Because he sees a chance to profit. His war or not, Trump wants his cut. Or else. He’s got a right on his cut because he’s the president. The best president ever. Everybody knows that.
Also, we all forget he tried to gin up a war with Iran in his first term. Wartime presidents tend to stay in power, and he knows this - wartime protests would also give him an excuse to use the military at home like the blunt instrument he sees them as.

Edit: I just saw that Trump has posted that the US is involved directly with the war.
Let’s see, a war to distract from an unpopular Republican president. We’ve never seen that before…

The CIA started it in 1953 by overthrowing the government of Iran.

Yeah. Nixon being forced to resign was the turning point.
I honestly think that he’s trying to get Iran to blockade the Strait of Hormuz to drive up the price of oil, to the benefit of Russia and also U.S. oil producers.
Yeah hes doing everything he can to ruin everything Biden did to improve the economy.

Well, considering he’s had a hard on for nuking Iran since before he was elected the first time…I didn’t think he cares.
