The Trump Presidency 2.0

"Sometimes you've gotta pop out and show 'em."

+5 for the K. DOT ref... one note, he's ubiquitous enough that you don't need to say who said it, let em google.

For Iran- the only reason I am even sort of inching closer to being ok with this is because of the DoW actions in Iran 1 and Venezuela.

Targeted glassing and schwacking of high level government folks, no boots on the ground, weapons our adversaries don't have, executed perfectly?

If that's how this goes, let the boys off the leash and bring everyone back home. Clarified intent, guidance, execution, endstate, straight into Phave 5 ops.

Oh and also no need to include any allies. Not for planning not for "joint ops". We don't need anyone else. Keep the messaging clean.

That's pretty short sighted of you. We need allies to be successful in a modern world.

This made me audibly chuckle. +3

Dear Mr President,

If you could please wait to bomb Iran until I get back from vacation and safely (relatively) back to the United States , that would be dandy!

Yours in awe and wonder,

Are you vacationing in Iran?

Remember when we talked about economics and stuff? Good times. Anyway, Trump was right about tariffs; the Supreme Court ruled in a 6-3 decision that a 1977 IEEPA statute (the underpinning for the tariffs) can't be used. Nixon used the same wording and the same statutes and was upheld.

As always, Clarence Thomas cooks in his dissent, Trump invokes more tariffs globally, and now that the SC just clarified a very small portion of the statutes and his constitutionally vetted powers, Trump will just use other statutes.
