Oh great. Can't wait for Joe Rogan to talk about how safe trump makes him feel after this.

Well the opposite would be feeling safe with Iran having nukes. Is that what you are claiming?

Missing the point. Trump claimed to be anti-war and isolationist, and these airstrikes are neither. Pointing that fact out is not the same thing as wanting Iran to have nukes.

Kinda like pointing out that we knew all along that grocery prices would be hard to control before the election, and Trump claimed he can bring down grocery prices. He backtracked after being elected. Pointing out that he was full of it before, and that somehow people believed him, is not the same thing as wanting high grocery prices.
