Can Someone Point Out How The Iran Situation is Any Better Than it was in June 2025?

[candycorn]

We took those sites out in June 2025. How did this war make any difference?

Nobody can explain how the situation is any better except for “dead leaders”...as if that matters.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Deal. I assume you'll refrain from any further comments on the deal until you see it.

We will see what develops.

Trump posting on social media that there was an agreement...he didn’t mention anything about nukes...just that the strait was open--like it was in 2025...

TRUMP has said consistently the deal is no nukes!!!

 

[Zincwarrior]

TRUMP has said consistently the deal is no nukes!!!

And regime change. And no more drones

 

[odanny]

Irans ability to explode nukes in Wasjh DC is now zero
The balance of power in the ME has changed Iran is now isolated
Irans proxy killers are at their weakest
Iran no longer controls the flow of oil
The most violent regime is now on its knees before the might of Americs

An unparalleled level of consistency. Truly in a league of your own.

 

[candycorn]

Sure. As the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism according to the U.S. and many Western governments, Iran’s influence extends far beyond its borders through a network of proxy groups and militant organizations.

Thats true. And it remains true today....

Depends on what you consider better I guess. Iran has definitely been damaged by this.

TRUMP has said consistently the deal is no nukes!!!

Yeah...he also said he would only accept “unconditional surrender”...then went on to say they were close to deal--aka a conditional agreement--38 times.

Putting 3 exclaimation points on the end of your sentence only highlights the flip flops.

I think that is something we can agree on.

However they were damaged in 2025 as well.

More so now. We all paid a little with gas prices, but Iran will be recovering for a long time.

So?

I’m always curious why this is trotted out as an accomplishment....hurting someone else doesn’t make you any healthier. Especially when they were not going to hit you in the first place.

PS: a 50% increase isn’t “a little”.

I'm more passive on this than you might be assuming. Just stating something true.

I get it...

But during the trade war (which we also lost)...we kept hearing how much pain we were supposely inflicting on China....as if it makes the elevated prices you’re paying better or something. Turns out that Chinese exports actually increased despite our tariffs.

My bank account makes me happy thank you Donald Trump.

True, but MY bank account (Portfolio) has gone up since I started investing in 1985. Minus that BUSH debacle.
Trump has done nothing special.

Tax cuts

Help the RICH.

drill baby drill

Biden Drilled More than Trump......deny it with facts.

blow up Iran

Cool Story.
I hope trump is preparing for the next 9/11.

arrest Maduro

Good

close the border

Show us the numbers to prove your claim.
You can't, you won't.

cut government regulations

Cool story, until a refinery blows up or we have another COVID like disaster. Cutting regulations ONLY saves corps money, and does shit for you and me.
Prove me wrong.
How have you benefited directly from some trump cutting regulations.
It's all talk dude.
If NOT, Prove how either you or I benefited.

fire useless federal employees.

Yup, bloated. Glad they are gone.

Oil is down to 80 dollars gas and inflation are coming down jobs beating expectations by 100%

More talking points.
Why did oil go above 100?
Why did inflation increase, and while you are at it, explain the inflation increase under Biden.

Now why couldnt democrats do that?

I'm NOT a (D), I don't know, just like I don't know why (R) do the shit they do to NOT protect the American.
It's all about the ultra rich with (R).
This ^^^^^ is a fact.

They are busy putting men in womens bathrooms

Sure, I don't understand ANY of that Trans crap, including Ultra Right Winger Bruce Jenner.

Have YOU EVER been involved in a "bathroom incident"
Not me, I'm not sure what you are doing if you have.
It is BS.

What is true, is men playing in women's sports.....<<<<<<this is 100% wrong. ****'em. As a trans, created your OWN league.

and running NAZIS and socialists for office.

You can't even define NAZI. Or Communist.

Hey thats plan go for it. I'll keep making money Trump is prosperity.

You made money under Biden and Obama too. Also Clinton.
Trump is nothing special.

So have American taxpayers and consumers.

Not if they are getting $300 billion. Thats insane.

Meh. Honestly I'm comfortable enough that none of this bothers me that much either way. Left wing, right wing, debates over moral certainty. I think life is pretty good.

 

[Anomalism]

Are they? Dang.

 

[candycorn]

Are they? Dang.

Well that and they get to sell their oil again on the open market. So $300B is just the beginning.
