THE U.S. HAS LOST THE WAR IN IRAN. WHAT IS WORSE, WE HAVE LOST THE TRUST OF THE REST OF THE WORLD, AS WELL, WE HAVE LOST ANY INFLUENCE WE MAY HAVE HAD IN THE MIDEAST, EUROPE, AND – WELL – ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD.
Trump is universally recognized and treated by other world leaders as the ignorant, incompetent buffoon that he is. And if you support him, that makes you . . . well, you know.
Here is the one and only accomplishment (singular) of Trump’s war with Iran:
- It took the spotlight off Epstein.
And now for a few of the failures of Trump’s Iran war:
1. Iran is now relevant in the world. Iran took on the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE and won.
2. Trump gave Iran regime change — the new regime is more radical than the old one.
3. Iran now controls which ships get to pass through Hormuz – the ones that get passage will pay fees. And — Trump will get none of the fees.
4. Here is a big one – Iran’s proxies are going to grow and gain new recruits – Hezbollah, Iraqi militias, Hamas, Houthis, are all going to increase in size and power. Trump’s war made the Mideast more dangerous, especially for the countries that took on Iran.
5. The US is going to abandon the majority of its military bases in the Mideast. Countries in the ME now realize that the US presence can’t protect them, instead, a US presence makes them a target, so, most Mideast countries will no longer want our military there.
6. China and Russia will make certain that Iran keeps its status in the Mideast. China will supply Iran with weapons and Russia will supply Iran with intelligence. Iran will supply China with oil and supply Russia with drones.
IRAN WON THE WAR. Trump and his MAGAts are not even smart enough to recognize the fact.
