#2But healthcare is far too big of an ask. Btw, they've been planning on this.

#3A war with no objective, no timeline, not authorized by congress, inflicting massive damage to the national and world economy, and the executive going cap in hand begging for more borrowed money to run it.

Sorry, but the hospital ship is in Greenland, providing free health care to people who already have public healthcare.

#7It's wild that people were forecasting this last night because troops were posting photos of lobster dinners.

It will go down in history as one of the most monumental avoidable disasters of all time.

#9What I don't understand is that the talk on this concerns marines going through the Strait of Hormuz to then annex the Iranian terminals on Kharg Island. Now, I know marines are kind of into doing water things, but the USA owns the GCC countries, and I think Iraq was conquered a little while ago. So why can't a different route be taken? Can't they just drive across the desert from the country known as Israel? Or from the Red Sea?

#10It is hard to predict the future, but to me it looks as if the
USA already lost that war. Now, we can say "define losing", but
in my opinion the strategy used by the USA is not clear here.
Yes, they can shift constantly and willy-nilly define new goals,
but everyone ends up being confused. In Iraq it was the lie that
it is about weapons of mass destruction. They don't even seem to
try for anything here now. The strategy used by Israel is clear -
Netanyahu as ultra-right wing politician has the strategy of
escalation. But this does not explain why the USA adopts this
strategy 1:1.
The interesting thing is that Trump is now stuck in the war, just like Putin is in Ukraine. They start forever wars and have no real way out of it, at the least not a simple one. That means the next "logical" step is that there will be US ground troops; the private media is already starting to prepare the population aka "we must occupy Kharg" (or any other area). This is somewhat similar to Lyndon B. Johnson and Vietnam. Step-wise expansion of the agenda. So WHO is really doing the policy in the USA? Clearly it is not Trump - he constantly changes his opinion.
