Stupid people wanted their champion.

One wonders how many congressmen and senators profited off of this? How much of the church portfolio is nestled safely with our military contractors? Betting on more war has been good for a long time.

Well, it is only those who are right of center who love Trump and think he's the bees knees. Supposedly there is a huge number of never-Trump republicans who are trying to save the party from him. In reality, based on the 2016 election results, and Trump's approval rating among Republicans, they are a very, very small minority within the party. It is no longer the party of Lincoln or the party of Reagan. It will forever be the party of Trump.

The Trump admin insisted the Suleimani strike was a response to intel about an imminent attack. Today, all Pompeo could offer when asked about that intel was the following:
"We know what happened at the end of last year & ultimately led to the death of an American. If you are looking for immanence, look no further than the days that led up to the strike."
Which means there was no such intel and there was no such imminent attack. The Trump admin was lying. They lie about everything. They are fundamentally corrupt.

I wonder how many Trump supporters on this board believe there was an imminent attack coming and Trump saved us from it? If so, do they also still believe there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq? I'm also curious why they now trust the deep state operatives who are allegedly saying there was an imminent attack. Why do they trust the deep state all of a sudden? Why are they suddenly in favor of more middle east wars brought on by deep state operatives?

Siding with the team for team sake is clearly a problem in politics at times.

The Sec. of Defense just described it as "exquisite intelligence." I'm with you; I could have sworn that none of those agencies could be trusted. Maybe he's talking about intelligence from the Kremlin. At least that would be consistent.

Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office alongside the Greek prime minister, Trump claimed the US strike that killed Iranian general Qassem Suleimani was “retaliation.”
“He was a monster. And he’s no longer a monster. He’s dead,” Trump said, according to the White House pool report.
But senior US officials have previously said the strike was meant to prevent an “imminent” attack on Americans, although they have refused to provide further details on the threat.
I mean, one of the things that should convince everybody that the administration's explanations of the killing are true is that they are so consistent and clear ...
Oh, wait ...

To be fair, I can see how the function of staff might be to draw up preliminary documents to cover the entire range of options. What I don't understand how that document gets delivered to the Iraqis.
I keep trying to tell myself that there is nothing I can do about what is going on, but it seems like the wheels are coming off. One of the truly frightening things to contemplate about a second Trump term: Who's left? We've already gone through the first four teams at least. How deep is the talent roster in crazytown?

What was Solemani doing in Bagdad anyway? Didn't Obama's Iran Deal forbid him from going there? We see how well they adhered to that worthless agreement. How many American soldiers/civilians did this guy help kill? Hasn't Iran been threatening the US since 1979?
Now Michael Moore is apologizing to Iran calling the Trump administration a terrorist regime.
We can't agree enough on anything to be one functional nation. We need separate countries and a full divorce between left and right.
