    Just how bad he ed up pissing off Iran...We may be responsible for crashing the whole worlds economy if Iran shuts down oil from the middle east by knocking out everyones refineries and ports and keeps the strait closed. Their economy already sucks. They don't give a what happens in the rest of the world. Who is the big winner? Russia.

    It's cute that he and his dip cronies thought it was JUST oil in the first place, as bad as that is.

    Aluminum, fertilizer, etc.-- industries everywhere are starting to grind to a halt.

    Still waiting on the 35-D chess grocer blog from TSA explaining all this.

    My guess is that he doesn't give a . It's a "look over here" attempt to get people off of the Epstein files. There's no other rationale I can come up why he's doing this n

    He knows he's going to die soon and wants to exercise all the power he can before he goes.

    I wouldn't be overly surprised if he drops at least a tactical nuke somewhere. Dude can't not do like that.

    does Trump realize?

    a.) is blissfully unaware
    b.) somewhat attuned to the global supply crunch he just caused, but hopeful things will turn out well
    c.) fully aware of the possible damage, but was taken surprise by the suddenness of the crisis
    d.) fully aware of the possible damage, fully intended it

    all seem possible, I'm sure there are other possibilities

    I waver between c.) and d.) on this

    not sure why Trump thinks he has any control of the timing now




    "We did a little excursion. We had to take this little couple week excursion. But it's been incredible. Our military has been unbelievable. I would say to put it mildly way ahead of schedule."

    DOOCY: You said it's an 'excursion,' and you said it's a 'war.' So which is it?

    TRUMP: Well, it's both. It's an excursion that will keep us out of war. For them it's war. For us it's turned out to be easier than we thought.

    Trumps ing regime change plans are blowing up in his face. The son is more radical than the old man and they have the upper hand. They are letting their friends ships including China to move through the strait unmolested and blowing up everyone else. The only way to stop them is boots on the ground or US capitulation including war damage reparations.

    Without a draft, there's no way the US could assemble enough troops to invade Iran, and even if we did, the damage would already be done, it would take months and months.

    South Asia and SE Asia are going to eat because of the closure, wouldn't be totally surprised if they decide that China is a more stable and reliable trade/security partner than the US.

    Trump is killing the stock market world wide. Every day is more red. Fortunately I'm in for the long haul and this will eventually pass but I'm down $50,000 since they attacked Iran.

    How does one trigger inflation and a worldwide recession?

    Start a war of choice with that cuts off energy supplies to everyone. Trump can't turn off the war he started.

    Even if we obliterate the Iranian state, what that does is create even more instability right next to the world's most important shipping lane, with no controlling political authority to make deals with.

    We know Khamenei got hurt, Iran admitted that much. No doubt there's a succession plan for him too.

    the decision to threaten Iran's existence as a political state -- and the very foreseeable second and third-order effects -- are on Trump, Israel wouldn't have done it without US participation
