Or will the MAGA movement stand by and watch Trump the "new boss, same as the old boss?" get us mired in Iran?

Thoughts?

? If America drops these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GBU-57A/B_MOP on Iran's enriched uranium in Fordo, how does that send your young people to fight, kill and die in foreign wars? How does that get you mired in Iran?

We can't go around bombing and invading other countries because they're catching up with us militarily, unless you want to piss off every people in the third world. How long do you think we can go around unilaterally playing global cop? Is that even ethical?

Oh Gary, you poor thing.

Idiot.

Gary, do you have a secret relationship with AI, and has it been you telling you things you want to hear?

Apparently so ...

You're a menace to your country and the rest of the world with it. Get the fuck away from me.

Hey, you win FlashDangerPants.

You have made your case.

Let Iran have the bomb. In fact, actually do give them the bomb, as a gift of goodwill and equity.

Yeah, that's the ticket.

Don't sulk at me. You MAGA people are the ones fucking everything up, no point shooting the messenger.

No, I think Trump has made it quite clear that Iran should not have the bomb.

Iran having the bomb is what fucks everything up.

But, you've made the case that a fundamentalist, terroristic theocracy should have the nuclear bomb. In fact, they should have an arsenal of nuclear bombs.

That way they can kill the Great Satan, once and for all.

Yes, state sponsors of terrorism should be able to amp it up to destroying whole cities.

Who can imagine anyone to say no to that?

Not Gary. He quickly consulted AI, and was told to call me Dennis the Menace and the rest of the world, and then he said he wanted to get real friendly. But Gary interpreted it another way.

And he calls me an idiot, just like the herd that you call everyone else.

Not "everyone else" is a minion like you, FlashDangerPants.

Oh don't worry, the "choice" is very clear.

Iran should either have a nuclear bomb, or they should not.

Trump says they should not.

You disagree with Trump.

Ergo, you want Iran and the murderous thugs who run the place, to have mass murdering capability.

You've made the choice you had to make.

TDS has rotted your brain to the extent that you prefer death to millions, over agreeing with Trump.


Ask anyone, and they will tell you this is true, FlashDangerPants.

I am not endorsing any nuclear proliferation at all. You are a dishonest man, you always have been.

I am pointing out that your strategy will fail and you will incentivise not only Iran but several other countries to pursue nuclear weapons. That's not a wish, it's a purely obvious fact.

Nah. Walker is a foreign policy genius. If you are afraid of something, declare war on it.
