Remember when libs were doing the "theres always a tweet" thing with Trump every day?

Donald Trump doesn't. He didn't say HE didn't though. He clearly does, he's different. He's a more special boy. He can do whatever he wants. But not the Cheeto Trump, only Biden.

The adults are in the room and we shouldn't presume to have the intelligence to understand them.

biden-rember Enough with that malarky jack! This ain't a war. This is just a routine missile strike on yet another middle eastern country! Heck, this ain't about actively defending the ability for our friends to finish comitting their geno... you know, the thing... defending themselves. It's about boats! And a bad bunch of boys who wanna play pirates by stealing our Iranian oil tanker, or you know, whatever. This would be a coast guard rescue if any of them could fly F-22s and all the targets we know about from helping the Saudis bomb them for years weren't on land. I'd be out there with 'em if these secret service guys would let me. Sailing to the rescue... wearing that orange lifejacket, wind blowing in my hair... god my dad could sail a boat! What's that...? Oh... uhmmm... my staff is making that motion to tell me to wrap it up. So I'll just say this... we'll win this war by this time next week. God bless America! biden

take us into war with Iran without Congressional approval

without the informed consent of the American people

Read: Donald Trump doesn’t know how to fight a war. But I know. I am the President who can win wars for America.

Democrats entire shtick in 2008 was “the Iraq War was a bumbling disaster, it’s time for the adults in the room to take charge and administer the war competently”

By informed consent he meant “as long as the president informs people he consented to it, it’s fine”

Trump can only drone strike a single Iranian general, as a treat.

Is Joe doing the Trump suggestion where you can get reelected by starting a war?

[-] UltraGreen@hexbear.net 33 points 5 months ago

Silly citizens, drone strikes and carpet bombing isn't war. It's profit protection measures of course. All the bombing will create jobs!

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 32 points 5 months ago

It's crazy how many times I've seen this post dusted off and reposted.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
