You’ve gotta be f’n kidding me. President Donald Trump has roiled the world economic system, pushed gasoline costs and inflation increased, killed over 1,000 Iranians, misplaced 13 People, and will value taxpayers $200 billion.
And his administration’s massive answer to finish the warfare? A literal minimize and paste of the deal that President Barack Obama made with Iran.
“Any deal to finish the warfare would want to incorporate the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, deal with Iran’s stockpile of extremely enriched uranium, and likewise set up a long-term settlement on Iran’s nuclear program, ballistic missiles and help for proxies within the area,” reported Axios.

If solely Trump hadn’t torn up the unique deal, he wouldn’t have blundered into this idiotic warfare of alternative.
And you understand how Republicans declare that Obama “gave” Iran billions of {dollars}, as a result of it returned some frozen belongings as required by legislation? Verify this out:
“A second official mentioned there could possibly be room to barter over returning frozen belongings to Iran,” reported Axios, quoting the official as saying, “They name it reparations. Perhaps we name it return of frozen cash. There’s many alternative ways in which we are able to wordsmith in order that it solves politically what they should clear up, to develop consensus of their system.”
Ah sure, “wordsmithing” away years of right-wing assaults towards the exact same deal that Obama struck, one which prevented the form of silly warfare Trump is now determined to get out of.
For context, Obama unfroze $1.7 billion.
Trump, in the meantime, is already panicking over gasoline costs hammering his occasion. So what does he do? He lifts sanctions on 140 million barrels of Iranian oil—price roughly $14–15 billion.
So Iran doesn’t simply get the deal again. It will get a far larger payday, courtesy of Trump’s warfare.
So to recap:
Republicans declare Obama “gave” Iran $1.7 billion, for funsies
Trump tears up Obama deal
Trump claims Kamala Harris will launch warfare towards Iran, however he’s the candidate of peace
Trump launches warfare towards Iran
Iran replaces Ayatollah Khamenei with youthful, worse Ayatollah Khamenei

Struggle weirdly continues
Iran closes the Strait of Hormuz, which everybody anticipated besides Trump and Secretary of Protection Pete Hegseth
Trump lifts sanctions on Iranian oil, rewarding them with large revenue
Trump folks now are floating Obama deal, however with even extra cash for Iran
…
Revenue!
Our steady genius of a president is floundering. He can’t declare chapter to get out of this one. However apparently, he thinks throwing some huge cash at Iran will let him declare victory.
And watch, he’ll then shamelessly brag that he “ended” one other warfare.
