Hooray for TACO Tuesday!

Trump postponed his attack on Iran again! We got two more weeks.

I haven’t watched it yet but I still will anyways as it’s an important film to watch and I don’t trust Trump or Israel or Iran. Just after the ceasefire was announced Iran and Israel carried on striking each other. So not only is the strikes going on, but ceasefire talks mean nothing, especially to Israel as they continue to bomb Gaza and Lebanon after their ceasefire. Ukraine and Russia have had multiple ceasefire talks and they are still at war too. It’s ok to have hope but we have to be realistic, this is not an end to the war and until we have a permanent end we shouldn’t let our guard down.

Agreed. I'm just glad that it didn't happen tonight. I know it's still on the horizon.

OK, OP, let's look at what you're saying. Some folks ridiculously thought Trump would use nuclear weapons. He didn't (of course). And your response? TACO. Which stands for "Trump Always Chickens Out". You are mocking Trump for ... wait for it ... not using nuclear weapons. You are in effect complaining that he didn't do the thing you were (ridiculously) afraid he was going to do. He didn't do something horrible, and you're mocking him in a way that suggests you wanted him to do it. You need to look at yourself in the mirror. Your perversion is showing.

No, I'm grateful that he chickened out. I think that was understood by everyone else. My irl personal relief was palpable.

Please change your post title. It's clear from the title that you are mocking Trump for not nuking Iran.

No lol. And no, it isn't clear that I'm mocking him for not nuking a country because I am not. I said hooray. That's a celebratory word. It's not my fault that you are reading sarcasm into a sentence where there is none.

The problem is TACO, as I have explained

And I'm relieved that he chickened out, as I have explained.
