Starvation diets are not healthy. We havePictures.
Trump is setting up China for a Taiwan take over like Hong kong with the War with Iran thanks to Israel.
When hd mentioned a failed nation, I thought he was talking about the debacle he's causing here.
America's behavior is not good for the world. The president of a country is the mother or father of that country. You set a good example, do not show gangster behavior. You cannot raise your children with too What I see is becoming dirty; the end of US dominance is on the way due to the gangster regime of the USA. Dramatic changes are coming to the world.
The President of America must be an example, not examples of manipulative behavior. The president of a country is the father or mother of the country; do not use forceful terms that threaten a father or mother. Get dirty towards your children, the USA lets other countries aggression because of the USA behavior
There is no illegal/unconstitutional act from which Trump would refrain in order to retain his hold on power until he croaks … void election results, extend and expand war, use nuclear weapons, impose marshal law. Nothing to extreme to stay at the soon-to-be-completed White House Nursing Home and Dance Hall. He has no regard for America's future, only for his current scams and for dodging accountability for his many crimes.
Have you noticed that voting sites are being closed down? I wonder why ?!?!?!?
Let's see –.originally Trump's invasion of Iran was limited to a few days , now 6 months. I wonder how long the next "limited " actions will be.? ?
He’s so full of anger
Let’s be real here in order to keep the fake balance the world governments have we have to compromise between democrats and republicans because our nation is only united for business
The first year of a 3 week war is the hardest.
He said the mission was accomplished so why are we doing this again?
Iran will have nuclear weapons in 5 years…
Economic Outcast isn't going to work simply because it won't affect the Iranian regime in terms of its leaders i.e. political officials, high ranking military officers and of course their supreme leader. All it's going to do is make their citizens who were already poor & suffering even more desparate and more destitute thsn they already were
If I had a nuke, I would give it to Iran to end this war. The US Military should be helping allies, Ukraine, Taiwan.
Like Hitler, if the GOP lose the midterms he'll burn the whole USA down and he's already got a huge head-start on doing so.
Scott Bessent is back paddling with every press conference, China have already stuck one finger up to him. Now Bessent says the secondary sanctions will work in maybe weeks or MONTHS.
Trumps got some special rockets he says gas prices are going to go down like a rocket! 😊😂
thx
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
33 percent of Americans would rather worship at the feet of this perverted god then stand with a free democratic America.
I hope everybody realizes that Donnie Trump isn't stupid he looked multiple moves ahead he knew what was going to happen with Canada this is exactly why he went into Venezuela and took their president his foresight gave him the ability to land conversations with specified specific individuals within the Venezuelan borders so amid the dungeons with Canada which you fully anticipated he would revert back to Venezuelan oil because the former ruler would not do business with him
Donald you're not as smart as you think you are
JD Vance needs to distance himself from Trump and be tough on Israel if he is going to have a chance in 2028…
3:00 WHY DOES EVERYONE SAY TRUMP CANT FIND A WAY OUT!?!? YOU JUST LEAVE!
He wont, because he is profiting off of the war.
Why would he want to find a way out?
The stock market is better than ever.
His sons invested in Drone technology.
Lastly, his ego, wont let him "lose". see: 2020 election.
HE IS NOT LOOKING FOR AN OFF-RAMP!
hes making money!
ONLY 2 MORE WEEKS!!!
Haha..if they are fail nation, how can they still be able to strike the neighbour countries?
The US economy will fail before Iran’s.
Banner says Trump said the strikes will be very limited, but you don’t show him saying that. If true, it is usually the loser of a conflict that conducts a “very limited” response just to save face, telegraphed to and pre-approved by the winning side (Iran) in advance. 🤡
The US only has cap guns in the arsenal, how much damage can they do. They make noise but nothing else from that bunch of clowns.
"Very Limited" just like our stockpiles 😂
Why is Vance talking? We don’t care about him.
All he really and truly wants is to turn our media away from the epstein files, this war is nothing but a big distraction! If he it really mattered that much to get nuclear weapons away from Iran, it would have been long done.
