This is the equivalent of an NFL Linebacker trying to tackle a kindergartener, missing completely, hurting himself, and buying the kindergartner a Maserati.
(The player also hurt the whole NFL team, doubled their debt, collapsed it's economic, some geopolitical alliances, it's petrodollar, etc - and that's just in relation to this one thing/war with the kindergartner.)
I'm not sure you know what an analogy is.
Ugh! Yes I do! It's like a eulogy but for your butt!
Not to be confused with, or followed by, oralogy.
You have analogy, sure, but what about extended analogy?
One can always build an analogy up until it collapses just for the fun of it!
A deal as professional as it's maker.
I hope he will get reminded every day that he fucked this up completely and made a deal far worse than Obama got - without causing a war, too.
You overestimate his ability to accept responsibility.
I know that this ability is zero.
He's gonna flat out say that it was obama/biden that made this deal. 100% chance of that.
Vance has a look and stance of absolute defeat.
This was the deal that was supposed to fuel his presidential run…tough milk crate to stand upon.
I suspect at this point he just wants some good ol’ couch time.
😂🛋️
Serves him right. He has no morals. No class. No ethics. He spent a full election season saying he was a "Never trump guy". So when trump called him up and said "You wanna be VP?" the respectable thing would have been to say "Yes, but not with you. I'm a never trump guy".
He didn't do that. He said "YES SIR!!! WHERE ON YOUR ASS WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO KISS, SIR???"
And this is where he is today.
They'll 25th Trump's ass as soon as it doesn't count as a presidential term for vance, if he pulls the trigger now, this will count as a full term and in his (and peter thiels) mind he thinks he'll win two full terms after Trump's done
So when trump called him up and said "You wanna be VP?" the respectable thing would have been to say "Yes, but not with you. I'm a never trump guy".
I disagree with this. The respectable thing would be to say yes, but also that you're not just going to be a yes-man. Take the role and push the administration in the right direction. Trump wouldn't accept this, so that would never happen, but it would be the best thing to do, but effectively it'd be saying no.
I guess an alternative is to say yes, wait until you're locked in, and then do the right thing and push back. I don't think there's any mechanism, besides impeachment or murder, to change the VP after the election. Get your foot in the door, and then shove the door open. Vance doesn't have the balls for this though, if he even actually disagrees with him. Him being anti-Trump was probably just a political move.
I honestly wish he would do the world s favor and just kill himself.
It's actually kind of a hilarious picture, now that I've zoomed in.
This whole circus still made the Trump family richer with insider trading so it's a win for them. They don't care if the USA burns to the ground.
Because nominal wealth relative to natural capital is true wealth /s. Fuck the world!!
Remember, this is in addition to the billions of taxpayer dollars given to Lockheed, Raytheon, Boeing, General Dynamics, etc. to fund the killing of schoolgirls on the other side of the globe.
Aren't you glad that money wasn't squandered on something frivolous like healthcare instead?
Can we just take it all from Elon? I hear he just came into a bunch of money, and from the sounds of it, he had a big hand in this presidency happening.
This is what happens when dumb and dumber are in charge.
Y-Huygeuh tremundus winning like yuve neva seen before in the hishtorreé of eyeballs bevore 👐
id wait for the actual text to come out. reuter's claims otherwise.
Dont know what's with these posts without any sources. Even if its to a twitter or truth social, i want to know the source of the information, not a fucking photo
*tRUMP-Epstein war.
The war was a huge success for Trump though. It distracted from his Epstein Files and he made some insider trades so he got richer. Win/win!
Remember when Obama got the release of hostages from Iran for a measley $1.7 billion that we already owed them? And remember how Republicans lost their goddamn minds? This millennial remembers.
Dozy Don looks fucked.
I should start a war with America
EDIT: Wait, did I just say that out loud?
EDIT 2: I mean... look... easy money, right?
Will they actually be stronger? I thought we bombed a lot of their navy and anti aircraft?
The US lost way more military resources than Iran in this conflict. We sure did cause a lot of damage to their citizens though.
Mostly just children's schools and hospitals.
How about America NEVER!
"We really got torn a new asshole here but the way we're going to spin it is to just say that it's a really great outcome."
Is the jaw dropping sum including deporting the Trump family and the administration and the republican party and establishment democrats to Iran?
Wonder if Iran will turn it into a business opportunity in the long run...
