Was inevitable. I don't see any sign Iran is willing to completely stop enriching, even to just 60 percent, and Trump has to have that politically, here at home. Anything less and people will ask what's changed.

Seems like Trump expected Iran to capitulate weeks ago, it hasn't happened, amd now he has set a standard that can't be met.

It can be met, but are we willing to do the necessary destruction and loss of life to effect regime change? Then come the paradox of regime change, will Iran become a stable country again or be another Lebanon/Syria which the world absolutely does not need. Is anyone looking further down the road? Hopefully the current leadership can be replaced with more moderate leadership and I think that that is why Trump is giving then time and using the economic pressure in hopes of an internal rebellion.

Even though outer ears are mostly cartilage they can heal pretty fast especially if you treat them quickly.

I slipped while hiking in a cave and ripped my ear pretty bad on some jagged rock. It was a 3 hour hike back to the car so I cleaned it with whiskey in my flask, heated some sap into pitch and slapped a bandaid on it and you can barely see the scar. It was torn up ragged.

Oh I totally don't believe he was shot in the ear. I mean, his ear is still there, completely in tact. Was it his real blood? Idk. Maybe he got cut by something in the SS scrum, maybe it's fake blood. Who knows. But no, I don't believe he was shot that day.

Even if you don't believe he was struck by a bullet it's a dumb argument. Someone tried to assasinate him. On TV. For everyone to see. It resulted in death. And I hate Trump as much as most of the country but that was an iconic moment in American history regardless of how you feel about him. We got photos of the bullet screaming towards him.

Frankly it's a distinction of no consequence

Yeah, the government has sure never been known to cover up things. What about the scrambling of photographers (directed by SS) before shots were fired, the SS allowing him a photo op where a kill shot could easily be taken for multiple seconds,

The photo where secret service was literally trying to pull him down/away? You believe they were “allowing him a photo op”?

the crane lowering the flag for said photo op

You don’t think the flag was already there for the event? Speaking in front of the flag seems like something politicians should do.

at the perfect time, the fact his ear is perfectly intact, and the fact that he very rarely even speaks of it when he generally can't shut up about people that cross him.

He’s spoke about it multiple times. He spoke about it on Rogan’s podcast who confirmed the scar was present.

I don't think I've ever come out and said "I believe this was staged," but knowing DJT like I have gotten to know him over the past decade, I wouldn't be surprised. I certainly don't think taking 1 life to make it seem "real" is something totally outlandish. He is a narcissist after all.

Well if Trump isn't lying (probably is) or about to TACO (as usual), things could get scruffy this week with Iran. I'm curious as to how our military could be comfortable with sending ships through the strait. Seems extremely dangerous if Iran plans to intercept them.

I suspect this is all typical puffery by Donald. At least I hope so.

Strait of Hormuz: President Donald Trump announced the US will begin guiding ships through the Strait of Hormuz starting Monday. US Central Command said military support will include guided-missile destroyers, more than 100 aircraft and 15,000 service members, though a US official said the initiative is not an escort mission. Top Iranian official Ebrahim Azizi warned the plan is a violation of the ceasefire

Well, looks like you were wrong again.

They cruised through and didn’t take a hit. Is Iran reduced to mosquito type warfare?

They had Apaches, and I’d guess Vipers too, escorting them. Their chain guns probably made quick work of the fast attack boats and any drones Iran sent. Any missiles were probably taken out by interceptors or CIWS.

Oh you don’t have to wonder. Buying into that crackpot conspiracy theory 100% makes you a loon.

Especially with regards to the Butler, PA incident. You know, the one where
- The Trump Campaign
- Biden DHS & Secret Service
- Local & State Police

All colluded to execute a live-fire fake assassination that culminated [checks notes] in:
- Felony Murder
- Co conspirator shot
- Two others shot
- Director of SS fired

And the two most inept administrations in recent memory managed to pull it off, keep it quiet, with no leaks.

Yea… 100% Looney Tunes

But don’t feel too bad. You’ve got company. Other board heavyweights (such as yourself) like @WoodsmanVol @swampfoxfan @K-town Vol Fan and others are right there with you.

Yes, also along with several million sane people.

I'm not changing your mind and you won't change mine. But ask yourself why no in depth investigation and no scars.
