In my humble opinion, Trump may have just DELIVERED the US Senate to the Democrats in 2026! (along with the House!) [View all]

Trump and the Republicans were ALREADY at 2006 Bush disapproval poll ratings over the economy,
WITHOUT any new middle eastern war----

and NOW they want to add a NEW "Iraq war" on top of that ???

"NOBODY VOTED FOR THAT!"--- and indeed, Trump RAN on
NOT starting any new wars---- before he became a 'neo-con' himself!
Even many MAGATS are now bailing on him over THIS particular 'broken promise'!

And, before he started this NEW WAR against Iran,
Republicans were ALREADY starting to panic about their continued control of the Senate!-----
before this NEW SHIT was thrown against the wall!


I think this will TURN the upcoming Senate general elections
in Ohio, Maine, Alaska and TEXAS---

(and possibly some other states which I can't imagine right now---
and that the Democratic incumbents/candidates in any 'swing states'
will HOLD their seats this November!)


((YEAH, I'd rather that the 'High-Chair Hitler' hadn't done this,
but we can't seem to control him---

but I think this is the 'silver lining'!))



((( Too bad Iranian civilians may 'pay the price' for it,
but 'it is what it is'! )))
