Clown Show Demented President versus a real PRESIDENT!!!

What people don't take into account, is that one of these countries have nuclear weapons, and the other doesn't. One of these countries has sworn to wipe the other country off the planet, the other has been playing defense for years. not the country with the nuclear weapons is done playing defense and could wipe the other off the planet if they wanted, but they don't. If the country that doesn't currently have nuclear weapons were to acquire one, they would use it without hesitation. if that doesn't sink in for people, then they need to bow out of the conversation.

Attacking and killing innocent civilians who have nothing to do with politics is in keeping with your country's values of freedom, democracy and human rights?

Just what are you worried that Trump will do?

What am I worried about? Embroil the US in another bloody, drawn-out and very expensive war that won't end well, lead to the deaths of countless innocent people while sacrificing the lives of yet more US soldiers fighting foreign wars, risk destabilizing the entire region (especially if other countries like Russia or China get involved and then it really will be serious), create millions of displaced people and refugees that people in the West will then complain about when they look for asylum away from the warzone, as well as breed even deeper resentment and anger that will radicalize a bunch more and further endanger the lives of US citizens across the globe. And overall be a lot of bloodshed for little in return. I wouldn't push that button quite so readily if I was in charge. And making dark jokes about how he can assassinate Khamenei if he wants is a bit chilling, especially coming from the leader of a supposed liberal civilized country that is supposed to champion freedom and global order.

Plus, Trump is backtracking a bit on his boasts he has said over the years about not wanting to get into conflicts and being an incredible statesman and negotiator, etc. This localized conflict could all too easily blow up into a much more serious one if Trump and other leaders involved don't calm down a bit and rein in their big boy egos. This is real life and real people's lives with real consequences; not a video game to score points.

"And making dark jokes about how he can assassinate Khamenei if he wants is a bit chilling"

I don't have a problem with Trump saying that to Khamenei, but it's probably better not to let the public hear about it. We see, right here, the hand wringing that type of transparency can generate.

You do realize that an emboldened Iraq, which was almost broken under Trump 1.0, is 100% Biden's fault, right? He just loved giving them $8 billion, unless it was one of those unelected dingbats in the cabal that was running the country and the autopen while he was filling a dribble cup.

Finger pointing aside, while in general, being concerned about the US getting drawn into another democrat/neocon/rino type of war is wise, there's nothing Trump has done that makes your seemingly near certain worry justified, imo. He's done nothing that even points to us being dragged into another 'boots on the ground' type war.

In fact, Trump is dead set against us being dragged into more of those wars, as I guess I assumed you would know from paying attention to what he says and does, unless you're doing so thru the lens of a clearly biased media.

As far as destabilizing the region, the barn door is open and the horse is out.. The region was destabilized long-term when W. Bush went into Iraq. Nothing we can do in the short term will make it better now, other than crippling Iran. I don't think we need to support Israel if they decide to go for regime change, which as we all know from recent events, is messy and probably would not go the way we'd like it to.

"And overall be a lot of bloodshed for little in return. I wouldn't push that button quite so readily if I was in charge."

There's been no bloodshed for the US. If Israel's enemies, like Iran, want Israel to leave them alone, then perhaps NOT paying for attacks like Oct. 7 would be a good approach.

I don't know about the "backtracking" you're referring to. I would speculate that comes from the media, who would insult the corn flakes he has for breakfast if they thought doing so would turn even one person against him.
