    I think the military is pushing back on him, that’s why they fired four generals yesterday. If it were up to him we would have dropped many nukes already.

      Seems systemic… Spend trillions every year and never win a war since desert storm or ww2 before that. It’s not budget, it’s not man power either the military are doing something really poorly or there is some type of corruption somewhere taking that money…

        I mean they’ve bombed the shit out of countries before, e.g. Vietnam. It didn’t win them any wars since WW2 as you said. And yes there’s definitely massive corruption happening in the MIC, no doubt. Im just saying, if it were up to trump he would have nuked tehran, someone had to tell him it wasn’t gonna happen. (He literally talked about nuking a hurricane at a public televised press conference in the past.)
