I need to stay on topic so the mods don’t get angry with this culinary discussion. President Trump, get your act together and start winning again, brother! The Iranian people need a hero ASAP damnit!

Full English breakfast for the Iranians!

Who was ignoring anything?

Tearing up the JCPOA has ensured that there's no stopping Iran from pursuing nuclear weapons, without a US military occupation, which you seem to be fully on board with now.

My dad owned a brick mason company that employed Americans only. He just sold it to another company and retired.

It's amazing that this was never an issue until the mid 90s when companies realized they could exploit the workers for pennies on the dollar and not have to provide benefits or pay taxes

But now this "dangerous hard work" is too much for Americans, especially those that would demand higher wages, benefits, PTO, etc...

Not on my crew. I'm sure newbies could be taken advantage of, but skilled laborers that are hard working, dependable and not drunk or high are hard to find in my neck of the woods. They're in demand.

Here too.

It was difficult bidding against Mexican crews but my dad had a strong group of contractors that preferred quality over saving money. it put a lot of American workers out of business. MY dad also started doing specialty work travelling to redo Brick kilns.

Mexicans are extremely hard/insane workers but they also did shoddy. They didn't match up joints, left excess mud on the wall, didn't use hurricane straps. My dad paid health insurance to employees and never did any work under the table.

People think "hard work" i.e. working for cheap dollars under the table in a fast way for 12-14 hours with showing up early and not having to pay OT or insurance is better than following the laws.

I agree, a lot of "new" homes are being built "fast by hard workers" but failing simple inspections because they cut corners and work shoddy...

Tell me what criteria was used to decide that the treaty was not in the interests of the United States.

Why not try to negotiate a separate treaty for ballistic missile technology, if that was suddenly of paramount concern?

Have you ever thought there might be some piece of information you don’t have on what prompted the US and Israel to strike Iran?
I’m sure you haven’t since you don’t think the Iranian regime is extremist.

Ham sandwich too?

Where is the logic in not addressing their support and financing of terrorism in nuclear weapons talks?

I will take your comment as the state sponsor of terrorism is just a “classification”as being ok with Iran gaining a nuclear weapon over time.

He doesn’t think the Iranian regime is extremist. They’re just normal guys that are misunderstood

"Beaten and decimated" yet we still couldn't send a US Navy boat through the strait. Hopefully he's just blustering to find a quick out of this mess

So the answer is "trust me bro"?

Forgive me if I don't want to take the word of a country who has been caught on numerous occasions spying on us, and trying to steal classified information.

It's a bad look for you to go out of your way to mischaracterize what I said, but that is to be expected from you.

People that have been posting about the fake genocide in Israel but silent on the people being slaughtered in a real genocide in Iran make me sick.

You ask them. And their typical response is….well my tax dollars.

You don’t care.

The only reason you ever cared was your hatred for Jews.

It’s so freaking transparent.
