War is raging...

I don't blame people for wanting to hope Trump would end all the wars continuing over from the Biden administration - no matter how unrealistic that was and no matter how involved Trump himself was in preparing for and provoking these wars during his previous term... I will blame them for now trying to justify wars they opposed under Biden now that "their guy" is continuing them (just as Obama supporters did following Bush). Reading people attempt to justify or excuse President Trump's entirely predictable/inevitable continuity of agenda reminds me of how eager some people are to become bad people themselves rather than admit people they thought were "good" aren't. No - the Yemenis aren't "pirates." The US overthrew their government in 2011 and waged a brutal proxy war against them via Saudi Arabia for nearly a decade. Yemen is fighting back against the illegal, unwarranted, indefensible presence of the US military across their region and their proxies brutalizing them and their neighbors. But Trump supporters already know this - because they opposed this war when it was Biden fighting it and they voted for Trump because he promised them he'd end it!

I’ll make it clear (again):My vote for Trump in November, and subsequent support, was predicted on a belief that Trump was serious about ending the threat of a nuclear war with Russia and bringing an end to the war in Ukraine.On this the record is clear.So far he has not disappointed.Regarding the conflict in Gaza, the tension with Iran, and the unquestioning support of Israel, I was cautiously optimistic that he might be able to do the impossible.On this he has disappointed.But let me clear—my support of Trump never hinged on Middle East policy.It always hinged on Russia.Because failure in the Middle East is a tragedy.Failure with Russia is terminal.So for all the people suffering from TDS who are critical of my continued support for Trump, pound sand.I will be critical where needed, as I have proven time and time again.But this man is poised to save us all from a nuclear Armageddon.And for that he continues to earn my support and respect.
