    idk, do you want him to do his job and take care of business or do stupid things that might win midterms?

    I just think he's trying to say what's going on here is serious shit to the reporter that's probably asking stupid questions.

    He's jusy saying this has to be dealt with, not that he doesn't care. I mean, who here actually thinks democrats care about our financial situations?

    Less amusing knowing the damage you've done to the country, though

    Keeping gas prices and inflation down is stupid compared to causing regime change in Iran?

    so, you are being stupid about hating Israel, and ignoring that your palestinians have stupidly destroyed their own future, and it's stupid you blame Israel for that. It's also stupid to allow your iran to get a nuke and terrorize the world

    I'd be happy if he was using all the political capital he had to deport every single illegal because that would help the wages of the average American. Unfortunately, he's instead used all his political capital to attempt to remove Israel's biggest rival, which is great for them, but sucks for the average young American who is trying to build wealth.

    How temporary do you think this is going to be? What exactly is the desired endgame here for Trump? Iran just proved that the US Navy can get ships across with an escort flotilla, but that a sustainable effort is not worth the risk. All it takes is one cheap Shahed drone to hit an American warship and that will be a massive political loss for Trump. Seems like we are ramping up for another big op, but I think it's going to be near impossible to capture all of the enriched uranium that the Iranians have obviously spread across the country.

    I don't see how you can ever be happy. We aren't removing ISRAEL's biggest rival, we are saving the world from an iran getting a NUKE where they could terrorize the entire western world, the entire middle east every minute of every day.

    these sick sombeitches really believe that they are going to rule the world. Go back and learn the real history of Israel and the middle east. or, you can just keep dishonestly bashing Israel etc because you are supremely bigoted against the Jewish state.

    Again, blaming Israel for your extremely stupid and self-destructive "palestinians" is never going to work anywhere but in terrorist/palestinian circles. 

    Have a nice day.

    you don't know what you don't know. But we are a free country, you are free to keep ignorantly bloviating on the subject.

    If your argument was this is taking longer than they thought, or something along the lines of a failed or nonexistent strategy, I could go along with it.

    But to keep talking about gas prices, midterms and Israel is just missing everything going on here.

    Biden canceling the pipeline was permanent, having higher prices because we're in a temporary war is something else. I'd even give clueless Joe a pass on that.

    I can talk all day about the geopolitical implications of getting involved in this quagmire, but I'm focusing on the political consequences of it in this thread. 

    Prices weren't up under Biden because of cancelling a pipeline, they were up because we decided it was a good idea to remove one of the world's largest oil exporters (Russia) from our economy. Prices are up now because the biggest oil chokepoint on the planet is closed.

    Biden shutting down the Keystone pipeline AND not renewing drilling leases were one of the biggest reasons for his 40 year high inflation rate. The same principle is being applied now, with the Iranian war. When energy prices are high it costs more to ship stuff…easy peasy.

    Those things did contribute to decreased supply but were a drop in the bucket compared to taking all Russian oil supply out of the Western economy.
