United States President Donald Trump has denied being dragged into war with Iran by Israel as he faces increasing criticism over the conflict, including from segments of his own base.
No, they blackmailed him.
My money is on bribery because it’s the only thing he consistently responds to
They dangle bait, but not hard cash, more promises of real-estate opportunities on the rubble of Gaza.
They probably didn’t even need to, he’s so easily manipulated. “Look! Airplane! And I like your idea of attacking Iran!”
epstein file talked him into the war to distract the news.
In Trump‘s first term and this term as well, he had The Who is Who of „Bomb Iran“ in his cabinet. Trump also has talked negatively about Iran for decades.
Trump just needed an opportunity.
Who said it was new?
Translation: Netanyahu talked Trump into it, but Trump was too stupid to know he’d been played.
In all fairness, “This is false, Trump is lying” is by far the most likely thing when he says anything that makes him look better (or at least less bad).
IMHO the most likely scenarion is that Trump was played by Netanyahu, later figured it out or was told that he had been played and now is lying about not having been played in the first place.
Why assuming he was played? The action the administration took to make this happen was too extreme to say “he was played”
The money all the rich made with market manipulation doesn’t indicate he was played.
Everything point at him and his groups to be actively benefiting from this situation.
He’s a psychologically sick guy with a profound Narcisist complex whose constantly harping about how he’s great at everything.
People who believe themselves better than everybody else and hence would never fall for a scam are some of the best marks around for scammers.
So it seems like a reasonable explanation that he got swindled into doing something which superficially looked like a win - especially in light of the recent similar “win” in Venezuela - but had secondary effects which turned it into a defeat.
Mind you, I’m not “assuming” jack shit, I’m just putting forward what I think is a likely explanation.
Obviously Israel talked him into the war and told him to deny it.
No. They manipulated him into it. Trump is rather thick after all and easily sells his love and trust for shiny trinkets.
Trump: Israel didn’t talk me into it!
…soooooo Israel talked him into it.
Trump is so easy to manipulate, and he doesn’t even realize it.
That is the reason it is so easy
So it was not about alliances? You just started a war unilaterally, because you had a bad day.
This guy is begging to be impeached.
Israel wouldn’t want him impeached, so Schumer will never let impeachment happen.
He could nuke Iran, kidnap refugees, and personally execute them on live television without getting impeached. There is no mechanism to really threaten him.
He is calling it a war, Donny you dropped some bombs on people and now it’s the worst possible shit show it could have been.
The war with Iran …pfffh
“American first” has become “Israel first”
It always was.
… has become Trump first
It never wasn’t.
There was pretense that he was for America first. His actions have always shown different but this is really irrefutable.
It’s true
The man is so simple I almost feel bad for him. Then I remember what he’s done.
“Trump says” well I don’t care.
Israel told him to say that, obviously.
That doesn’t make it better…
actually, lmao…
He probably has already forgotten that Netanyaho talked him into this.
Cool story bro but your fucking lying
