12. Absolutely...Trump started an unprovoked war (nuclear weapons blah blah blah)

with zero intelligence having fired most of the career intelligence officers whose actual jobs were to monitor Iran’s nuclear program ..he then bombed a girls school, killing 168 children having used coordinates from something akin to a video game.. and when Iran retaliated and shut down the Strait of Hormuz (something everyone knew was going to happen), Trump, caught with his diaper down, threatened to erase Iran from the face of the earth …then, having learned nothing the first time, sent Witkoff, an incompetent pay-to-play corrupt billionaire, Kushner, his incompetent corrupt bribe-taking billionaire son in law , and Vance, an incompetent blithering idiot (and Trump’s fall guy), to get him out of a winless war with a win…and the Iranian negotiator refused to shake Vance’s hand?…I’m shocked

All things tRUMP touches, dies. Why is anyone else expecting otherwise? tRUMP is not a negotiator, like he claims in SWBTATTReg Jun 21 #6
+1. He threatens and extorts and when that works, he calls it making a deal. tanyev Jun 21 #13
