This was very readily apparent in 2015. But the media offered him tons of spotlight and NO pushback. At the time, I believe, they assumed the average American was simply too progressive, too smart, and at least informed enough to see through the multitude of his juvenile, half-baked bullshit.

they were wrong then, and after 10 years of environmental and societal fuckery that has been wrought by him and his cronies and social media, even more wrong.

The liberal PM is more conservative than many conservatives, unfortunately… And I voted for him :/

I am mildly confused. Can someone explain the joke to me?

He treated the war with the same level of thought as he does publicity stunts. One thing Trump is genuinely good at is controlling media attention and how to keep people in a constant state of shock. This is why you have shit like UFC fights and a festival so cheaply put together that things fall apart in real time. And how he tore down part of the white house before that… And now wanting the live streamed execution of a prisoner.

He treated Iran the same way he treated those other cases. Wanting it to be a cheap gag that’ll garner attention for a few weeks or months before somehow disappearing into the endless list of shit he has done.

But Iran won’t have that… They are fighting a war the way a war needs to be fought: to achieve strategic and political goals. To that end they are winning brilliantly.

Exactly. I remember Bush. The guy was a reviled idiot.
