Let's face it: this happened because he needed something that would give him an ego boost, with the added bonus of creating a distraction from Epstein and everything else he's in the doghouse for. Because the only thing that really matters to Schlump is the care and feeding of his greatly oversized but very fragile ego.
If that means killing a bunch of Iranian civilians and American service people, he's fine with that. He 's a psychopath, so causing people to die has no more significance to him.than setting fire to a stack of paper dolls.

I have often thought that too. Jeffries is too weak. We need someone with the strength of Pelosi.

This will be a downer for the 3-4 DUers who are dedicated to supporting Trump's war.
