US intelligence has been telling US presidents since Reagan that attacking Iran is a dumb idea. It's why the US tried it through an Iraqi proxy for plausible deniability. Trump is just the first to be malleable enough to be 100% on board with Zionist and Christo-Fascist rhetoric. His "I don't think I'm getting into heaven" comment was written off as a joke, but it should have scared the shit out of all of us, since it showed his mindset. He was probably led to believe by those around him, including too many in the Pentagon, that attacking Iran was his get-of-jail-free card and Dog would grant him indulgence for diddling little kids.
