So they werenβt caught off guard, they just bungled it? Got it.

Arenβt we supposed to capture strategic locations like that, early on?
Like establishing air superiority?
The us bombed Bagdad for a month straight before deploying a single ground unit
Maybe firing the highly qualified black man and replacing him with an unqualified nazi drunkard was a bad idea?

And scouring through the internet for unflattering images. The time they have to spend during a war they started on nonsense is astounding to me. If Obama was out golfing while everything was going to shit, Trump would have been blasting him 24/7.

If they weren't surprised, then the truth is that their war planning was trash.

Fired and replaced with yes-men last year. Good times. If thereβs one thing they did well, it was the misdirection between then and now.

They were only surprised cause they fired the specialists, probably because they were saying what they wanted to hear

But they WERE surprised. They thought, no, they "knew," that Iran is a 3rd world sand pit full of people in robes shaking torches & ancient rifles in the air, with maybe 1 rocket launcher in the entire nation.
And to find out they are a modern nation with a real defense system and ability? Horrors.

So, um, what exactly are they saying here? Because if it's what it sounds like, it's pretty much contrary to everything I was taught about the American ethos.

That's funny, I could have sworn he said something about not needing Royal Navy vessels because the war was already won.

E. Jean Carroll, one of my personal heroes, took on Trump and won.
Sheβs one of the bravest people Iβve met.
She shared some thoughts on Trump and Epsteinβs awful friendship.

This summer I will fan the nationβs flame of discontent
And make a list of all who dare express a bit of sharp dissent
Weβll laugh about the places Jeff and Ghislaine went
And shrug away the fate of all those ballroom dollars spent
