The Art of the Retreat… did Trump just blink on Iran because his base can’t afford to fill up their trucks?”

[Conservative from Georgia]

This is the same guy who stood at his State of the Union just two weeks ago bragging about $1.99 gas as proof of his economic genius. Now Susie Wiles is apparently running around White House meetings warning that pump prices are going to be “catastrophic” for Republicans in the midterms. Trump is calling a 50-cent-per-gallon increase in a single week a “little glitch.”
The man launched a war that’s choking 20% of the world’s oil supply through the Strait of Hormuz and somehow seems surprised that gas got expensive. Oil is really high. The people who were promised $2 gas are now paying $3.47.
So was the four-to-five week timeline always the plan, or did gas inflation just become the exit ramp? The hawks wanted this war. The base wanted cheap gas. Turns out you can’t always have both.

Rubio and Vance were against it.

Ratcliffe, Hegseth, and Netanyahu were for it. So was Fox News, of course.

He wanted the leaders who allegedly offed tens of thousands of "protesters" to pay and they did.

We should have just done that and stopped.

His war is illegal. See Constitution Article I, Section 8.

This was purely to boost the DOW. He was watching the plummet and decided to tell a lie to turn it around.

Now he has reversed that since the market is closed.

You would think after more than a decade on the scene and being your President now for 5 years that even somebody with a fake "Conservative" lie in his screen name would be able to figure out that everything is a negotiable point to Mr. Trump. You see it as a sign of weakness because you're not terribly bright.
But most of us see it as keeping the enemy off balance as well as keeping his own options open.
In the past, so many politicians have been criticized for being incalitrant, never altering the game plan even when it's failing. (Iraq and Vietnam, anyone?)
Trump is brighter than that.
And brighter than you.
So don't you ever forget that.

The pedophile doesn't care about your gas prices. I want to see later this week who made money from transactions made before and after the pedophile's "very complete" comment knowing that oil prices would go down 10% after he said it before shooting back up and beyond later in the day and in the coming days

lol, I nailed it:

Dems: trump is a warmonger! We shouldn’t be in Iran fighting Israel’s wars!!

Trump backs off..


Dems: look at trump the coward! Retreating from Iran! TACO!

lol, it’s too predictable.

I am glad he pulled a TACO. This was a disaster. He shouldnt even have us in this situation. When ever Trump reverses himself the market loves it because all his ideas are terrible.

So, why then do you all mock him when he does exactly what you wanted?

You will cheer both his backing off and his backtracking in the backing off. Because it’s a cult. And you’re a member.

I have already posted several times that I approve of this reversal.

Why would I cheer for either one? I’m not a trump supporter lol.

I don’t like the idea of wars screwing up our economy, I don’t like the idea of a terrorist state getting nukes either….
