You want a world where Iran is enriching uranium towards weapons grade because we didn't honor a deal our country struck, so Trump could play dictator like those he so admires?Quote:

That seems like an easy answer.
Elon Musk posted an interesting and funny sketch on where he has always stood and where things have gone which make him look right wing now.Quote:

Has anyone looked at their investments lately (or pick your weekly crises)? Already taking in the a** with inflation. And good gawd, we are talking about Trump again. Good times!
How can we have a reasonable discussion?Quote:

Or, on the ground with inspectors in the country.
Do you even understand the mistake we made in Iraq?
You read one opinion from a guy who is pushing the hawk side of foreign policy without ever bothering to read up on the facts.
It's disheartening.
What did we give up for the inspectors is a question I haven't seen you answer or ponder.Quote:

Saying multiple times as a campaign promise that Mexico would pay for a southern wall to be constructed. Said he would “drain the swamp” though it seems like the swamp has grown with more gators. The inability to work with members on the other party (Sorry but that’s your job as a politician). The insults and derogatory comments to main stay republicans like Mitch McConnell, Mitt Romney, Lindsay Graham, John McCain, etc. The phony “stop the steal” campaign after losing to Joe Biden. It says a lot about his presidency that he lost to Joe Biden. I also find it amusing that the “states” in question for voter fraud are only states that Democrats won. Seems like a strange coincidence. Telling the American public about that you will release your taxes only to be fighting tooth and nail not to have them released. Why tell the American people if you were never going to do follow through with what you said? You also have Jan 6th and Russia which resulted in 2 impeachments. Has never happened in this country before. Policy isn’t the only thing that makes a president though I am sure everything above is Fake News and the Earth is flat.Quote:

Do the conservatives not have any better options than Donald Trump? If 2024 turns into a Joe Biden vs Donald Trump rematch, I am going to write in Strange Brew for my vote.
Also, Joe Biden’s bad policies are a reflection of Joe Biden. It doesn’t change the fact that Trump was not a good president. It just shows that both men suck. Do better Democrats and Republicans. Get better people to run for president.
Not quite sure what you are asking. Can't find your original question, only this. Maybe I didn't go back far enough.Quote:

“An Opinion from One Guy”. A guy who has always been right in his analyses before. Did you even read the preamble about him before the Essay?Quote:

“Inspectors in the Country” won’t be traveling deep into hidden mountain caves because Iran won’t ever disclose their locations.
I once again submit that you are blatantly ignoring Iran’s terrorism and excusing their behavior just to get a “Deal” done- even if it is garbage.
You Obama and Biden negotiate in hopes. Hopes that the other side will act in good faith rather than realpolitik. Iran NEVER has negotiated in good faith and they still hate America, hate Israel and side with Putin and Xi.
No Paul. Stop your delusions.
