Trump’s Inflation is at 4.2%

And it looks like their is no end in sight as Trump's war has gone on for more than hundred days now despite promising it'd be over in two weeks.  It seems to be escalating at the moment.  Trump has put us in a quagmire and there's no way out other than sending in the ground troops, which is unacceptable or making major concessions to them and it is doubtful Israel would agree to any concessions made.

Well MAGA was right about a few things.  Before the 2024 election they said if I voted for Harris prices on groceries would go up and gas would hit five dollars a gallon. I voted for Harris and the price of groceries has gone way up and the price of gas has hit $5 a gallon. 

 

 

MAGAs are such big fat chumps.

Wait.....was it Trump that said this Iran War would be over in two weeks, or our very own Tom?

Yes! Although, to be fair, as stupid Tom and Millerpig told us, Noble Dear Leader didn't say which two weeks. It's a'comin'. Just 'round the corner. Peace in our time. It's all temporary. And bad things don't count if they're temporary. 

 

The Turd's ego won't let him reach any reasonable agreement with Iran, because he'd have to make some concessions, and he thinks that would look weak. It comes down to, neither the Turd nor Iran nor Israel has any real interest in stopping this war. They're all enjoying it. So the only thing that will stop it is the death of the Turd.

 

Maybe a nice, routine, massive myocardial infarction? I beseech the great Flying Spaghetti Monster to help.

  Mark is such a moron. Everyone knows why the number is up presently - because of the soon to be ending of the Iranian crisis. Once the crisis is settled there will be nary a peep from Mark as inflation drops -   all he cares to do is stir up people over temporary issues. Question - Just where was Mark when inflation was 7-9 % during the brain dead Biden administration?


won't let him reach any reasonable agreement with Iran

 

What is a reasonable agreement?

In general, one where each side makes concessions and each side gets SOME of what they want.

 

Trump has to acknowledge that Iran is a sovereign nation and that we don't have the right to tell them how they can arm themselves. The MAGA rhetoric is that those rights don't count, because they're big bad meanies and Bibi hates them. The US in general has to put away the idea of "regime change" and dropping bombs on countries we don't like.

 

Iran has to acknowledge that the Strait of Hormuz is international waters. It also has to refrain from attacks on its neighbors. They're entitled to respond if Israel attacks them.

 

The best solution would be to reinstate the treaty that Trump violated and broke in 2018. And yes, yes, I know that Trump said that they had violated it first. The FBI, the CIA, and the independent treaty observers said that they hadn't.

 

The second best solution would be to return to the status quo before the Turd War started. That would disregard all the destruction and death that we've rained down on Iran. But reparations, which would be just, are probably never going to be on the table.

 

In short, any agreement would have to acknowledge that we're in the wrong and our actions were unlawful and unjust. Will Trump ever admit that? Will MAGA? Will you?

 

 

 

 

Mullah Kevin - the UN said that for years Iran violated the treaty and repeatedly did not allow inspectors at various sites. 

Should the US allow a country to develop a nuclear tipped missile that can reach the US; particularly a country that even attacks its allies?

 

The other nuclear countries subscribe to the MAD theory; while Iran is just mad

 

 

 

 

Should we "allow" that? Yes. Because Iran is a sovereign nation and we do NOT have the authority or right to tell them otherwise. Can you refute that statement? No. Don't bother trying.

 

We allowed Russia to develop nuclear weapons. Should we have bombed them to stop it? What about Britain? France? China? Israel? Should we have bombed them, too?

 

The UN reports, though they weren't what you say they were, should have been used as a tool to get Iran to allow stricter compliance. Then, if they truly were violating the treaty (and it has never been established that they were), we could have canceled it. But the truth is that neither Trump nor Bibi wanted it at all, so they looked for any excuse to cancel it. There was never any good-faitn effort. Trump was just doing his "wipe out everything Obama did" shtick. And Tom...you know that to be true.

 

Mutual Assured Destruction would still be a deterrent for Iran. They would be fully aware that a nuclear strike on the US, Israel, or anywhere else would bring massive retaliation and the obliteration of their major cities and military installations. Contrary to what you imply, they're not crazy. They have just as much self-preservation instinct as we do.

 

You have to let go of the concept that we're entitled to make war on nations because we think they're big baddies and/or they don't like us. I know that's been a core Republican/MAGA philosophy, that we're the world's policeman. But we're not, nor should we be.

Oh, and stupid motherfucking asshole Tom...if someone had said in 1950 that the Soviet Union had the right to develop nuclear weapons, I'm sure that some craphole would have called him "Comrade Fred" and he would have been dragged off to be prosecuted by the Un-American Activities Committee.

Mutual Assured Destruction would still be a deterrent for Iran.

 

They don't care if they get bombed.  Every time the launch missiles they get hit 2-3 times harder.  These are not rational actors

 

The Central Bank of Iran reported that the 12-month inflation rate through the end of March 2026 stood at 53.7 percent. However, point-to-point inflation for all goods reached 73.5 percent.
