Mad King Donald had lunch with a Fox "News" host who told him that Iran was just days away from having a nuclear weapon, despite denials by his own DNI. When another former Fox "News" host, the Secretary of Defense, began to assemble forces in the region to prepare for war yet another former Fox "News" host tried to gain Mad King Donald's attention long enough to stop the rush to war based on false information.
But Mad King Donald saw the wall-to-wall coverage of the Israeli strikes against Iran and decided he wanted in on the action, wanted credit and praise because of course.
In short, current and former Fox "News" folks are deciding whether or not America goes to war by swaying a man-child who is detached from reality and easily influenced by their ratings driven idiots.

prolonged discussion w/trump from any gop member who has a strongly opposing view, with trump in the same room. carlson and bannon may pack extra diapers, but that would be it. WWE redux.

"Remember that I predicted a long time ago that President Obama will attack Iran because of his inability to negotiate properly—not skilled!" ~TACO Trump, when Obama was President.

Trump is the most un-selfware man in the world. Only a narcissist could say the idiotic things he says and still believe he's some kind of genius.

I don't think you understand Trump. He is very much aware. Here is a reminder of George Orwell's 77 year old prophesy.
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

For once the left got something right. This quote is 100% wrong of Trump.
Obama sent Iran pallets of cash and wanted to codify Iran having the ability to make nukes...plus never even thought about putting their ballistic missile programs on the table.
He'd never attack Iran...because he's a fan.

The only person who sent pallets of cash was Bush- to Iraq.
Obama was a main driver of a treaty in which Iraq promised not to pursue a nuke, a treaty that international inspectors said they were adhering to. Trump scrapped the agreement, and here we are- facing a deteriorating situation that Trump himself created,

https://apnews.com/united-states-government-fd4113...Treasury Department spokeswoman Dawn Selak said in a statement the cash payments were necessary because of the “effectiveness of U.S. and international sanctions,” which isolated Iran from the international finance system.
The $1.7 billion was the settlement of a decades-old arbitration claim between the U.S. and Iran. An initial $400 million of euros, Swiss francs and other foreign currency was delivered on pallets Jan. 17, the same day Tehran agreed to release four American prisoners.
The Obama administration had claimed the events were separate, but recently acknowledged the cash was used as leverage until the Americans were allowed to leave Iran. The remaining $1.3 billion represented estimated interest on the Iranian cash the U.S. had held since the 1970s. Among other transfers.
The correct amount of money to be sent to the mullahs is $0, before some of you are tempted to try to justify this somehow. The correct amount of interest to be paid on sezied assets is $0 as well.

He may be 'aware', but I still maintain he is not self-aware. He sounds like such an idiot when he opens his mouth. But then his followers accept that spew as words handed down from the mount. I just don't know what to make of that. It is mind boggling.

Ok- I had to look that one up as well. I’d forgotten about it.
How could I have forgotten about it?
Probably because there’s nothing there.
The money was a payment to Iran on a legitimate debt owed to Iran.
And the money in cash was because Iran was cut off from international banking

In other words, we used Iran's own impounded money, not USA money, as negotiating leverage.

"Obama sent Iran pallets of cash and wanted to codify Iran having the ability to make nukes..." - Dumbass Lyin' Dope
This is a lie on so many levels. You have to be lying because you have been corrected numerous times and still repeat it.
Obama did not pay Iran. As part of the Iran Agreement, Iran's banking assets that were frozen were released. It was their own money.
Also, it did not codify Iran having the ability to make nukes. It did the opposite. It made sure they never had the ability to enrich uranium to a level that was high enough to make a nuclear bomb. It also had a very rugged system of oversite to insure this.
Stop lying.
