Irrational Numb-ers
Things are getting worse by the hour. The UK is distancing itself from us and France, Germany and the UK have condemned Trump in a formal statement without ever mentioning Trump or the USA. We’re on our own, just like Putin wanted.
If Iran attacks us, who will come to our defense?
Iran isn’t rational. Trump isn’t rational. Former allies who are rational but have cut us loose.
Iran has a navy. They can cut off the world’s oil. They can make a nuclear bomb.
Mike Pence is going to explain everything to us in a week. The vice president is going to address the nation in lieu of the president telling us why he did what he did and he’s going to do it in a week because they need more time to rationalize what Trump has done.
Mike Pompeo went on TV this morning to repeat Trump propaganda, pound war drums, and rationalize WWIII with smirks and grins.
An impeached, irrational, criminal president is ordering assassinations without Congress’ approval.
Nikki Haley is so ambitious, and wants to be president so bad, that she’s grabbing on to dog paddling MAGAs so she won’t drown. She said, “The only ones mourning the loss of Soleimani are our Democrat leadership and Democrat Presidential candidates.” That’s not only irrational, it’s irresponsible. Fuck you Nikki Haley.
Breaking! No big mouth dog paddling MAGAs are lining up to enlist in the armed forces to go kill Muslims in Iran with their badass guns.
John Bolton tweeted out support for Trump killing Soleimani in the morning and then said he’d be willing to testify in the Senate impeachment trial if subpoenaed later on in the day. Um, wut? Is this a rational thing to do? Why yes it is, if you want to get around a signed nondisclosure agreement and sell more books.
If Mitch McConnell blocks Bolton from testifying, the House can do it. Even better, they can open another impeachment inquiry into Trump’s abuse of war powers and subpoena him for that.
Our national security apparatus can’t figure out what’s going on. It can’t manage the fallout. It doesn’t know what to do because the commander in chief is a madman and half of the Congress supports him. Nobody in the White House is rational. Or competent. Or qualified to be there.
After the Pentagon sent a memo to Iraq announcing the exit of American troops, it took it back which is irrational and crazy as fuck. Joint Chiefs Chair General Milley told reporters, “That letter is a draft it was a mistake, it was unsigned, it should not have been released, it’s poorly worded, implies withdrawal, that is not what’s happening.” Um, wut?
The Pentagon’s Chief of Staff is resigning.
We look weak. By trying to look tough, the irrational commander in chief has made us weak.
After Trump threatened to sanction Iraq he’s now saying that he’ll wait a little while to see if Iraq actually kicks American troops out. Trump is playing You Sunk my Battleship because he never got to as a kid because all the other kids wouldn’t play with him because he was a such a shitty kid.
“As increasingly troubling and alarming as Trump’s behavior has become in recent days (which is saying something,) what’s far, far scarier is the absence of any voice of authority from within his own party condemning it — to say nothing of doing something about it.” — Steve Vladeck
The entire Republican party is irrational and its base is numb.
The GOP sunk our battleship.
