Anyone else tired of all the winning?

Narrator: Iran was not, in fact, “paying attention to this matter”…

Someone should ask him what the 7 dead Americans died for

No worries, the war is justified because now…Iran has a leader worse and more extreme than the last. So much winning.

He just sounds like a fucking idiot here

It’s a sinecure to keep them in the “family,” aka loyal

What actual empathy and wisdom looks like in a leader. Refreshing

True. Also feels like a mafioso trying to bring another business under their protection racket. I think DT is trying to expand his power. Worked in Venezuela (he “owns” it now, can get kickbacks). I think he thought he could do the same in Iran.

Tell me more about Stephen Miran’s “measurement issues”

The whole point of this war is that Trump can “own” the next leader. He’s just expanding his crime family

In Trump’s mind he’s acquiring other countries, like properties. And that means “owning” the leader, having leverage over them, as in Venezuela. It’s all a protection racket

It’s just a sinecure to keep her in the “family,” keep her loyal

He remains the most punchable face in the world

I think it’s less about Epstein and it’s more Trump feeling he can “buy” foreign countries. He’s figured out if he can get leverage over a leader he feels he “owns” that country, and DT loves to feel like he owns things. In his mind, he acquiring new countries

Nah. Per Venezuela, he wants a new foreign leader to to join the Trump crime family. Doesn’t need to be regime change. Just needs a corruptible replacement

Also, why join the Trump crime family when he’s on his way out. Soon DT won’t be able to protect all his minions

Also just the pure legal exposure of being at DHS. How do you pursue these policies and NOT commit state crimes

Good clarification. El Salvador could be an interesting option. More broadly, I hope people are both aggressive and flexible in pursuing accountability for the Trump mafia

It’s a sinecure to keep her in the crime family, to keep her loyalty

Is there an ICC complaint filed here? Would be good to do that

The answer is a lot dumber than most people think: DJT just wants to. He likes flexing power, feeling like the biggest fish in the ocean. Thats it. There is no strategy, only an emotional whim

It’s this: not having to explain yourself is a prerogative of unaccountable power. DT believes he has unaccountable power, they all do.

Baghdad Bob vibes

And - she should now be prosecuted for her crimes: fraud, abuse, etc

I feel like I hear the Curb Your Enthusiasm music whenever he starts talking

Don’t worry - antisocial personality disordered ppl like her usually do

Could be a cute couple

And hopefully prosecution. Her troubles need to be only beginning

She still must be prosecuted for her crimes
