Bibi has already 'denied' he ever twisted Donnie's arm -- but Trump & the War Dept says he did.

This does seem a repeat of the Fall of Rome. That empire allowed the colonies to get used to commanding the legions. The city of Rome was conquered by its own colonial general, the Visigoth Alaric. At any rate, the Israeli colony is now a regional superpower, not just a military garrison. Its own connection is to Saudi princes and local Emirs.

Vance is registered as a Catholic. That means he's less inclined than Evangelistic Maga to clap at what Trump gave Netanyahu, Jerusalem as The Eternal Capital of Israel.

Vance taking over was always the plan of those pulling the strings in the shadows, like Peter Thiel.

Trump is playing war games with the lives of American troops. His family is positioning to make billions on the war. Trump could care less about anything but money and power. Vance won't take over in a run for president. A stronger MAGA with even worse fascist members is lining up to take over and I wouldn't be surprised if Tucker Carlson, MT Green, Joe Kent and others who will make a big thing about being anti-Trump to shmooze the cult members will rise up.

Spot on the message, Zev. Can we imagine the number of body bags that should have accompanied the troops going into this killing field? And how hideous it will be when an entire troop ship is blown out of the water, with all hands lost to the sea! Felon doesn't give a damn, but too many MAGA/Congress/"Junk Drawer" Cabinet are all in this together. Unacceptable!

I think Vance is positioning as the repug candidate cuz more and more folks don’t like this “excursion”. Diaper Donnie won’t get reelected; he’ll have to steal the election, if he is still alive.

Looking pretty snoozey these days.
