I think this is a good hedge. In case the war is ultimately viewed as successful, you and your posse will need a new line of attack. Trump profited from the war has promise.

This is not the first time that insider trading has apparently occurred under Trump‘s second administration. It’s a problem to normal people like you and me that insiders and a select few apparently within our government are fleecing financial markets.

There is no such thing as a victimless crime here.

Sadly, Trump could be 100% lying about being in negotiations with Iran. Trump could be lying just to save face in light of the fact that he made this threat for I ran to do something, and they didn’t which puts him in the awkward position of not following through on his threat.

So yeah, I’m going with Trump is lying

It's public knowledge that Vance has not wholly agreed with the Iran war since the beginning. He likely recognizes that it represents everything that the MAGA base opposes regarding "no new wars" and isolationism.

He's doing his best to be perceived as the best viable 2028 presidential candidate for MAGA. Makes for a sticky wicket with his boss though. Of note, and I had to look this up, Trump cannot fire the vice president.

Vance cast the deciding vote for Hegseth. He’s probably not the worst of the administration but his political career is over. His only hope would be taking over for Trump mid term and Americans developing amnesia.

At the very least Iran right now is lead by a fractured leadership or in the middle of a power vacuum where the side that is willing to be more evil will take control.

That's kinda what happens when you assassinate anyone who could possibly negotiate an end. Almost like it was planned that way

I'd rather have Jeremy Pruitt negotiating my child's future than Jared Kushner anywhere near anything of importance. Kushner only cares about himself and keeps getting put into a position to make everything worse for everybody else on the planet.

He really ought to be fired into the sun (figuratively). I'm not sure what value he brings to anything.

Insider trading is illegal and should be prosecuted regardless of political affiliation.

I just find it humorous that at the first hopeful sign of this whole “excursion”, Trump haters are already teeing up the next line of attack.
