The main stream media has been bombarding America with the message that this was an unprovoked war that will turn into another quagmire like Vietnam or Iraq. It isn't that and never has been. Trump is much smarter than any of you on the left give him credit for. He understands economics. He knows that you can bring a nation to it's knees with things other than an invasion. Iran is FUBARED! They know it...no matter how much they bluster and posture!

I'm amused by your polls. 54% disapprove with how he's handled the US-Mexico border? LOL Trump secured the border and made it secure in a matter of a couple months. It's remained safe and secure ever since. Why would anyone disapprove of that?

Weve been at War with them for 47 years Clown

Does that make us "good guys" or terrorists?

Iran thanks you for your service

That is not combat and his fat ass would never fit in BDUs.

He took a bullet. And I've seen some serious fat-asses wearing Desert Camo at Ft Campbell, KY

True, but they actually volunteered, unlike fatboy felon.

I could have sworn Trump said the Iranian navy was kaput!? Moar lies?

What kind of Navy does Iran have?

Probably a few corvaires.

Fart Hood, retiring Staff Sergeant, was at least 325.

Trump is serving this country in a more impactful manner than most soldiers. Putting his life in danger just because he dares to stand up to the Establishment Deep State.
I spent years in the military and most of the people on active-duty never see one day of actual combat.

Trump is his own Deep State.

Continued evasion and deflection from your supporting anything you've claimed with actual evidence gets tiresome. If you can't back it up, nor defend it, don't claim it.



Trump has driven nothing up, Iran has. Trump is trying to get it down. And $4.39 sure is a sight better than the $7.00/gallon many were paying under Joe Bedpan. We'll live.

Maybe drive less for a while, stay home and play with the dog. Do it for the environment.

Better still, buy an EV, then you won't care about gas prices.

You cannot document your lie that a gallon of gas had cost $7.00.

Please stop your desperate attempts to concoct diversions from Trump's rising gas prices.

The price of a gallon of gasoline was $3.08 in January, 2025. It is now $4.46.

I never did get a list of what they had in the first place.

 

[Robert W]

Probably a few corvaires.

Those are small cars.

Those are small cars.

And fun to drive.

It depends where you live. Here in KS it's $3.99

Where are the fuels for the US refined? I can't explain the price rises but do not believe the activity in Iran is a factor.

$3.69. $3.79 here in L.A.
