Overview:
The Trump administration's recent actions, including their controversial attack on Los Angeles and their failure to secure a treaty between Ukraine and Russia, have led to widespread criticism from a growing majority of Americans. This surprise, unsanctioned attack on Iran on Israel's behalf has caused tension within the US, with many within his own party questioning this administration's ability to effect regime change given the president's personal history with Iran.
They needed something.
Everything this White House has done and continues to do is making the administration increasingly hated. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) had been a complete failure. The girls were fighting. The “big beautiful bill” was on its way to being sabotaged out of existence, and the polls were even crashing on immigration.
Cabinet Full of Clowns
There certainly wasn’t anything to cheer about in his cabinet. His cosplayed-into-memedom Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary allowed an allergic reaction to hide her rather than face Senate Democrats over her part in the debacle that occurred within that four-block radius in downtown Los Angeles.
These folks cannot do anything right. In addition to Noem’s incompetence, Pete Hegseth has failed at every level as Defense Secretary. Seriously, go down the list. Name one who has proposed a policy that Americans actually approve of. Top to bottom, they’re all a hot mess.
So Trump certainly couldn’t prop them up for anything positive. Remember, he had just run away from the G7 after being completely useless to the USA there. He did take time to spew pro-Putin talking points, on camera, while lying about how Russia got kicked out of the G8, so there was that.
But he’d also been caught sleeping in a meeting. On Day One. So, he had to go.
He Said What?!?
But, naturally, this president couldn’t even do that right. Leave it to Trump to undermine his own cover story for leaving simply because Macron repeated it. Then after a night of fits where he yelled “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER” over his social media app, the giggles became titters.
Pressed over what he was going to do about the war besides screaming into an app, this president made his press secretary stand in front of the press and utter two words that turned those titters into howls of laughter. With a face so straight that scenes from horror movies came to mind, this woman said that Trump would be making a decision in “two weeks.”
Two weeks. Two weeks! That was it. This administration had officially labeled itself a joke. A “you tried” meme for the ages.
We all knew it would never hold. Especially after Trump tried mightily to convince reporters that they were in danger just talking to him before he ran off to golf outside at his Bedminster resort. Nobody even pretended to bother to believe him. So because there has never been an administration so insecure in the history of the nation, the bullies figured they’d shut us up by bombing three sites in Iran without Congressional approval, then stepping up to the cameras (because that was the whole point, of course) to proclaim the mission a resounding success. And to insist that Iran must now make peace.
So What Do We Know?
For one, Iran has not “made peace.” They have continued the war with Israel because they never needed nuclear weapons to go to war against Israel. Today, they added US air bases in Qatar and (maybe) Iraq to the list. No casualties were reported…this time.
We also now know that the three sites at Isfahan, Natanz and Fordo were not nuclear power plants, but merely uranium enrichment facilities that were only capable of enriching low-level radioactive material, such as that used to produce electricity.
Meaning, that this president interfered in a war and made the USA a target for revenge over the equivalent of an electric plant.
Which didn’t stop Bibi “days away from a nuke” Netanyahu from re-bombing Fordo after satellite photos revealed that the superbombs dropped by the USA had not, in fact, “obliterated” the Fordo site as Trump claimed. Which apparently embarrassed Israel, because, optics.
Speaking of Optics…
Unfortunately for We The People, what we can be reasonably sure of is that this current administration will never get Iran to sign a treaty with the USA. Because Trump literally ripped apart the last one. Despite the fact that Iran was in full compliance of the deal.
But at least Trump got a photo of him awake in the situation room out of the deal. That makes it all worthwhile.
Meanwhile, the joke continues as this administration today talks about “regime change.” After, naturally, spending the entire weekend denying that as a motive of the attack. Which would be beyond insane considering that this administration can’t even effect change here in the USA.
Nor between Ukraine and Russia. Remember the embarrassing “stop it” post? That was way back in April. Has “Vladimir” even pretended to heed Trump’s warning?
No wonder Bibi attacked Iran.
Fight, Fight, Fight!
So because destabilizing the Middle East wasn’t enough of a deflection from the laughter, we get to watch the destabilization of MAGAville too as the cultist try to figure out a way to support THIS potential foreign conflict without being mocked to their faces for all the “peace through strength” noise they’ve made all these years as if we’ve forgotten all the non-peaceful actions they’ve engaged in throughout the years…within our own borders.
Being able to temporarily boss around LEOs doesn’t make you strong. It simply gives you the ability to boss around LEOs temporarily.
