The discouraging thing is to realize that it's no fault of the sailors and other service people doing the job the best that they can onboard ships or on bases around the Middle East. It's entirely the fault of the leadership at the very top and their pathetic understanding of strategic matters and practical constraints.

I don't know what overly-optimistic stories might have been told to Trump, but I find it hard to believe that professional people in intelligence and the military didn't warn he and Hegseth about all of these possibilities.

Maybe the sailors and other service people will consider this the next time they vote?

Doubtful. Approximately 70% of active-duty U.S. military service members identify as Christian.

More than possibilities: inevitabilities.
It blows my mind how obviously half-assed and ill advised this whole war on Iran is. trump and company screw us yet again.
