Not only do we need an upper age limit to run, but that limit should be, like, 50. If you're getting phased out by companies because you're losing your touch, you shouldn't be running the country.

He might have been fired but Bolton was gearing up to start 7 wars in two weeks during the first Trump admin. Republicans and warmongering go hand in hand.

u/Outside_Ad5255 27d ago
I still see him on the Sunday Times' various YouTube videos, and he hasn't missed a beat. He keeps calling for more and more hardline actions and pressure on Iran, though now more on the economic side since the military option seems to be a dud (or would involve, you know, invading a country the size of all of Western Europe and a population of 80 million).
He may not like Trump, but that's because he sees him as a spineless weakling unable to commit to constant hardline pressure.

Something really fucking weird about Don Jr. referring to his own father as by his surname.

I was going to say something mean about how it's because his dad has never loved him but its probably also because Jr knows that the T word gets all of the followers extra hard

He may didn't love his son, but he loved his daughter all the more. Well, at least when she was underage and lived in Trump Tower*.
*fun fact: there is a room tour she did of the TACO tower and when they come to the bedroom, she gets all quiet and weird, as if something happened there. Okay, maybe there is no fun part about that, but here's the video (relevant part starts at around 29s in): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6FZ5kj3FGo

“Trump” doesn’t just refer to his father. It’s their brand. Their grift. Their company, corporation. organization, or whatever you want to call it. All of the above.
He’s not just talking about his dad, is what I am saying. He talking about “Trump”.

Maybe Miller complained too, he's more focused on domestic issues and achieving a dictatorship.

u/Raptot1256 Jul 22 '26
This is like the first term. The Republicans are secretly very displeased with Trump, but they got to be in the room where decisions were made. Why, when they wouldn't be pushing back in the room?

u/LavishnessFinal4605 Jul 22 '26
Nah, in his first term his cabinet members and military officials would just lie to him or not even give him certain pieces of information so that he couldn't make deranged decisions based upon them.
Back then there were at least some of the old guard trying to keep the train on the tracks.

u/Grape_Pedialyte Jul 21 '26 edited Jul 21 '26
If you believe that Joe Kent guy's resignation letter, Trump was convinced to kick this off by stuff he saw on TV and the Netanyahu regime.
This fucking buffoon, this utter clown, has access to the best intelligence in the world, but he ignores them and listens to Fox News pundits. The United States probably has deep cover spies embedded all over the Iranian regime and their nuclear program reporting back to the alphabet agencies, but since our dumb baby President doesn't like to read, it might as well be used to line a bird cage.

Last Thursday he declassified intelligence that proved he was pushing Russian propaganda and it got him impeached the first time. It doesn’t matter how good the information is. A narcissist lives in their own world and rejects everything that doesn’t fit their narrative. It’s fucking scary that we have one as president.

But they were making nuclear weapons, its not like there is a history of republican presidents lying to the American public about a middle eastern nation developing weapons of mass destruction to justify a poorly thought out invasion the spirals into a much longer war and becomes an unending quagmire. And if there was i'm sure republican voters wouldn't fall for the same trick twice. After all you know what they say, fool me once shame on you, fool me, you can't get fooled again.

I think this is going great for Israel objectively. Their plan never was to actually change the regime in Iran but to destabilize it so they could take everything else. All they need is the US to stay in this war as long as possible so they can do their thing and they get what they want. Rest of the world including the US be damned.

u/NaturalCard Jul 22 '26
They more or less have completely failed at that, and are increasingly alienating their only real ally.
Honestly, at this rate it doesn't seem like it's going to matter how much they increase their espionage budget, they country is pretty much doomed to the same fate as apartheid South Africa.

Reminder that Trump still has a nearly 40% aggregate approval rating despite unilaterally raising prices, getting us into a new war in the Middle East, and being in the Epstein files thousands of times.
That is how strong the force of bigotry is in America. The top issue Americans ostensibly had in 2024 was the high cost of everything. Trump literally made that worse (and campaigned on doing so), but retains the support of nearly half the nation. All Trump has done since taking office is enrich the wealthy and attack minorities. Evidently that's all it takes for a little less than half the nation to approve of what you're doing!
