they're getting super comfortable arresting elected officials

seen some people complaining that this is a political stunt and lemme say if this was the kind of political stunt more politicians were doing on a regular basis we wouldn't be where we are today dude is actually putting himself on the line here, fuck off with that shit

Hard to overstate the degree to which there appears to be literally no one in the president's current circle who has any experience, even at a low level, managing ANY kind of national security crisis or even situation. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/thoug...

Trump: "We now have complete and total control over the skies of Iran."

Trump on Iran's leader: "We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now."

i know we're numb but it seems not great that an executive branch official is on a Russian asset's show spreading conspiracy theories about American elections being rigged

not to get all partisan or anything but i think going to war with Iran for literally no reason beyond puffing up Trump's ego would be bad

Tammy Bruce: "One thing we've learned about President Trump is that when he tweets, when he speaks, the world watches, and it's the most clear framework that we can learn of his approach." Bruce then proceeds to read Trump's Truth Social post.

Tammy Bruce: "He's the best dealmaker in the world ... the best person who can explain his feelings and thoughts about what's accomplished on any issue is the president himself. So I would refer you back to what he writes and what he's posting."

Tammy Bruce: "We live in a fascinating, exciting time where we've got a man who can make the difference, and he's generous about making that difference. He could've chosen to have his term be about anything other than peace and making America great again ... all of us are grateful."
