Bombshell reason for Trump's Iran attack surges into news - Brian Tyler Cohen

[TexasTowelie]

- Trump allegedly justifies military action against Iran by claiming Iran interfered in the 2020 and 2024 U.S. elections to stop him — a claim tied to a dubious article from Just the News.
- Brian frames this as “wagging the dog” — a distraction from Trump’s domestic unpopularity, policy failures, and scandals, echoing his own past accusations against Obama.
- Trump’s goal may be to legitimize election interference claims, using war as a pretext to later justify suspending or altering election rules via executive order in 2026 and beyond.
- A draft White House memo reportedly cites legally dubious statutes (like IEEPA and NEA) to claim emergency powers over voting — powers the Supreme Court previously rejected for tariffs.
- Legal expert Marc Elias calls the memo “bonkers” and unconstitutional, vowing to sue if Trump acts on it — but warns media outlets are legitimizing the theory by calling it “plausible.”
- The video concludes Trump is an “aspiring autocrat” who prioritizes self-preservation over democracy, using war and conspiracy theories to consolidate power — and he’s “too ham-handed” to hide his motives.
