We are currently trapped in a forever war. Not because US troops want a fight. Not because Iran wants to fight. But we are trapped because the current president of the United States is too stupid to keep his mouth shut and let the diplomacy process do its thing.

I am of the mind that the democratic party should swoop in and nominate Thomas Massie as their candidate for Congress in his district. He doesn't have to vote with us. He just needs to be back in Congress as a continual thorn in Trump's side throughout the remainder of his presidency.

Thomas Massie won the election last night. The other guy might have gotten more votes but Massie won. The time is coming soon when a MAGA free Republican party will need star power to head their new leadership. Massie will be one of the largest stars in that movement.

Are we tired of all this winning yet Trump bombed Iran and transformed it from a regional power into a near peer. Then he went to china and grovelled at their leaders feet. When he left china was no longer a near peer. It looks like the world's only superpower. And the US is now merely a near peer.

I took some time to have knee replacement surgery. The idiots in DC didn't take any time off from their stupidity. Trying to catch up on their actions while taking multiple mind altering opioids has been surreal.

The Republican party wanted someone who would run the government like a business. They elected a man who gained wealth by running his own company. What happened? The stock market crashed, banks failed and unemployment skyrocketed. That election was in 1928. Rhyming history can be scary.

Trump has lied about peace and prosperity to the point that his actions are devastating his base. Many of his loyal followers are now walking away. His solution to win them back? More of the same lies. He has passed from the land of ignorance into total stupidity.

It has been an incredible decade watching an entire political party fall into delusion. And for the opportunity to own the libs the rank and file of the party have willingly endured hardship after hardship. At last the price is too high for some and they are crashing back to reality.

History is a great teacher for those willing to learn. When the rich attempt to become richer by exploiting the poor it leads to the collapse of the society that allowed them to become rich in the first place. Republicans and your mega donors, you have been warned.

We need a constitutional amendment to correct this corrupt Supreme Court's ruling impling presidents are immune from prosecution while in office. I firmly believe a president should be taken into custody if a prosecutor has a case and leadership passed to the first person not facing charges.

Another guardrail I believe we need is an amendment establishing an independent commission of physicians and mental health professionals to monitor the president, his cabinet, high ranking judges, senators and representatives to ensure they are fit to fulfill their duties.

It is high time we start discussing what guardrails we are going to put on our democracy once the Democrats return to power. Might I suggest a constitutional amendment to make cabinet secretaries have experience in their field... defense=military, health=medical, state=diplomacy.

The party of manufactured problems seems totally surprised that they installed a leader who can snatch defeat from the jaws of victory consistently.

We have reached the tipping point in Trump's presidency. A lot of things that will be written about in history books are going to occur within the next 90 days. There is already a lot of infighting from the inner circle and the rats are starting to flee. With any luck it will all be over soon.

Trump got himself elected by promising to make a country great. I am sure none of those who voted for him knew the country he was talking about was Iran. Every move he has made in his stupid war has only served to increase Iran's power and prestige on the world stage.

Dementia Donnie thinks he's Jesus but Jesus is just a doctor. The Secretary of Drunkenness.....sorry, I mean Defense is quoting Bible verses that actually come from a movie. The FBI director can't provide accurate information. Does this entire regime share a single, overworked braincell?

Mussolini founded fascism. Its ultimate expression came under Hitler. Orban, using Soviet tactics, was the founder of a repressive movement that is now expressed in the US as MAGA. It is a great day for Hungary, also for the US to see this movement dying before Trump completes consolidating power.

I know times seem dire. America is in the worst position that it has been in since the civil war. But the fragmenting of the MAGA movement is accelerating. Soon We the People will be able to rid ourselves of the idiot-in-chief and his band of con men and thieves.

What are we doing? War. Ceasefire. A treaty is almost complete. Destroy a civilization. No boots on the ground. Mustering ground forces. Regime destroyed . The regime closed the strait. They have no weapons. They struck again. I don't know how much more of this yo-yo foreign policy we can stand.

We got a two week reprieve on an escalation of the war in Iran. I'm totally unsure if it was Taco Tuesday or an example of chicken and waffles. Maybe Dementia Don forgot why he was bigly mad at the country with the funny name. I'm just glad we got more time before he committed us to war crimes.

After Trump's Iran speech it is time for Republicans in Congress to get serious. They need to replace speaker Johnson, then remove the entire Trump regime. We need someone in power who will do the hard work of saving as much of our nation's prestige as possible. Recovery may take a century.

Trump built his base on the illusion of being the billionaire every man. As dementia peels away his ability to spin lies the small, evil man underneath is starting to show through and his base, even the true believers, are beginning to turn away.

Like all charismatic leaders, Trump is human. And in his case he is a very flawed human. His actions over the last year have revealed this to his most devoted followers and they are beginning to see him for the con man he is. Once the veil has been lifted, the fall isn't far behind.

Trump has figured out that war with Iran is a bad idea and wants out, but is too stupid to shut his mouth which pisses off Iran, the entire world and, quite frankly, every American with more than two brain cells. It's time for Congress to be the adults and take away his ability to play General.

The no kings protest this weekend was the largest yet. I'm interested to see if the 3.5% rule applies here. That rule states that it only takes 3.5% of the population protesting to bring down an authoritarian government. That number for America is around 12 million. We are getting close.

I'm unsure which is worse. Is it Trump's plans that will destroy America or is it the damage he is doing as he vacillates from one position to another? Both are inflicting damage that will take decades to repair if repair is even possible.

Remember: Trump destroyed fishing boats because (Epstein), tried to annex Canada because (Epstein), threatened Greenland because (Epstein) and is bombing Iran because (Epstein). These are all distractions that have a name. EPSTEIN!

The creators of what would become project 2025 must be totally dumbfounded realizing that the chrismatic leader they endorsed has turned out to be a complete idiot who is systematically destroying their 40+ year plan to dismantle the American democracy.

The America First crowd needs to understand that it should be Americans First. That means good jobs with good pay, first-rate healthcare and world leading education. You know, all the things Republicans have been chipping away at for decades and the things MAGA is trying to destroy completely.

The Trump era will come to an end. When it does we as a country must put some much higher guardrails on our constitution to prevent a more competent strong man from succeeding where Trump failed. Our Republic won't survive another assault if we don't take action when the opportunity arises.

The Roman Republic became an empire because the Senate refused to stand up for themselves and their country and the commoners didn't have a voice and their opinion didn't matter. Our Republic is still standing right now only because the common people have a voice and our opinions still matter.

Over 70 years ago the US toppled the democratic government of Iran because of American business interests and installed a puppet leader who would be deposed in the 70's. It took another 30 years before treaty talks were possible. Trump has set that process back more than another 70 years.

Trump has spent his entire presidency badmouthing our allies and has tariffed the world. He has backed the genocide happening in Gaza and has started a pointless war of his own. Now he's discovered war is hard and is begging for help from those same allies. He has to be totally insane!

The secretary of defense saying that the strait of Hormuz is open and the only thing stopping shipping is the Iranian missiles raining down on ships proves that Trump actually prefers to surround himself with people who are confirmed to be more stupid than him.

I'm getting ready to sit down and watch some news coverage of the war in Iran, or as it's officially known in the White House.... Operation distraction from Jeffery Epstein!

Trump has created an unwinnable situation with Iran. Now he is babbling on about regime change in Cuba. Does that sound familiar? George W Bush started an unwinnable war in Afghanistan and thought it a brilliant idea to start another in Iraq. History isn't rhyming this time, it's repeating.

How many young Americans are going to die in Trump's needless war with Iran? How many will be broken mentally and physically by this war? What will they do when Republicans tell them they were suckers for serving and that their country won't offer them support medically or financially?

Trump has picked on nations that couldn't fight back. He thought the same of Iran not realizing it is a nation with a large population, a strong military and a mountainous terrain that makes it a natural fortress. Now he's learning an actual war is much harder than he thought.

Trump took out the leader of Iran. Iran threatened Trump. The Trump administration claims to have taken out the person responsible. Are we supposed to believe this? Like the Trump administration has the intelligence to pull this off. They didn't have the intelligence to not get us into this mess.

I hope the irony of the little nation that must submit to whatever peace terms Russia offers becoming the only nation on the planet being able to provide a technology the strongest military in the world desperately needs for its latest war isn't lost on the average American.

Obama was able to work out a deal with Iran because moderates were coming to power. Trump ended the deal and moderates were replaced by hardliners. Now he has started a war and is creating martyrs and zealots guaranteeing another 40 years before relations can start to improve again.

Trump has spent his life bullying those he deemed lesser-business partners, construction workers, etc. He brought that attitude to the presidency and is learning the hard way that bullying doesn't work with opposition nations and the results are worse when applied to now former allies.

The idiot in chief needed a war with Iran as a distraction. Now he is surprised that the focus is still on Epstein, surprised that no country in the free world is coming to his aid and is surprised that a large swath of maga is angry with him because he went too far.

Dear leaders of the United States military; Trump starting a war with Iran without receiving permission from Congress is unlawful. You have a constitutional obligation to shut this down before this mad man escalates and gets us into something from which we can't get out.

Welcome to the Iran edition of the Epstein wars. Every time the Epstein files begin to dominate the news cycle Trump picks another country to bomb. Unfortunately for us, this time he picked a country with an established government, a military, non-state actor militias and allies.

We spent 2 decades battling insurgents in a country with no central authority. Now Trump has drawn us into a country with similar terrain that has an established government and a large, well equipped military. If he puts boots on the ground it could easily cost the lives of thousands of our troops.

"The supreme leader of Iran is dead so says Trump". This was a news headline I saw. Is he really dead or is he dead like their nuclear facilities were completely destroyed 8 months ago? Time will tell I suppose. But does it matter? Iran will rebuild and the US has become an international bully.

Bill Clinton testified before a secretive Republican committee. They do not want that testimony to be given to the public. President Clinton was under oath when he answered questions before this committee. It seems to me that the American public should be allowed to hear what he said.

Israel striking Iran first sounds like a preplanned strategy to allow Trump to claim he was just defending our ally when he hits Iran later. Sadly, some will believe him in spite of the fact that he has been building up a strike force for months now. Another long, useless war.

The idiot in chief is threatening a war where thousands of Americans would die in an effort to force Iran into negotiating a nuclear deal that will never be as good as the deal Obama arranged more than a decade ago. A deal this dumbass quashed as soon as he got into office the first time.
