Well one Republican hasn’t been fully neutered by Trump. How about the rest of you?

      We (Americans) don’t get punished for war crimes. Those are only enforced on countries without leverage. This is why it’s so important to keep leverage (big beautiful bombs) out of the hands of anti-Christian dictatorships. Also, our supreme court ruled that he can do anything in the context of being president. I’m bummed that he had to go to war over low approval ratings but no better target than Iran if you’re going to do it. It’s a bigger country than Gaza while being equally shit and Israel will absorb much of the short term retaliation. I’m curious to see how China reacts.

        Trump’s trade wars have destroyed a lot of America’s leverage. Your military was about all you had left, and that’s going to be tied up in Iran for who knows how long now.
