Sister texted me asking if we're going to war with Iran. Then a friend asked the same question. Well, I don't know, but there’s a flowchart to TACO in chief. Trump is terrified of 1) blk women 2) ppl perceiving him as small 3) and the ppl who own him.
For the latter category, he's owned primarily by 3 factions: Putin, Netanyahu, and the money-making Arab countries. Trump is their golden retriever. MBS tosses a Frisbee, and Trump goes happily running to fetch it. Putin calls him on his birthday to pat him on the head and scratch his nose, and he drools. Netanyahu? He beats the PM to his own talking points. Trump has spoken for years about turning Gaza into a resort with no Palestinians. And it’s not because Trump likes Jewish ppl or Israel.
Trump is a tried and true racist NY real estate mogul who -once again- hates black ppl, uses Latinos but thinks they're beneath him, while also believing he needs Jewish lawyers and business associates for power. I’ve talked to Jewish lawyers in Miami and NY who have clients like Trump: rich, racist, white nationalists who desperately want Jewish lawyers or colleagues b/c their racist dad taught or implied that Jewish ppl own the world and the world of real estate in NY. It's still Marjorie Taylor Greene's "Jewish space lasers" antisemitism mixed with his own personal brand of greed and fear that leads to licking Netanyahu’s face (Btw, all of Trump’s love is based on fear. It's why he will never love his kids.)
Anyway, the problem currently is that a war with Iran involves his 3 owners who all want him to do different things. Netanyahu wants the US to be involved and bomb Iran. Putin does not like that because it will hurt his weapons supply line while he’s fighting Ukraine. And Saudi and the money-making Arabs are ambivalent. They hate Iran b/c they get in the way of business, and they send their radical terrorist cells to Arab countries to destabilize regimes. Yet they don’t want Iran to get rocked too hard b/c the ppl might overthrow the Iranian gov, and revolutions are contagious. Most of these money-making Arab regimes are rich despots hated by their own ppl. A revolution in Iran triggered by bombing the gov might trigger ideas among ppl in other Arab nations.
The House of Saud might be secretly rooting for Israel and the US to decimate Iran without leading to regime change. So we will see how this unfolds. But whatever Trump decides, rest assured, there is one person he is not worried about: you. Or the American public. Or US soldiers, or in the best interests of the nation. There is no love there because there is no fear of getting hurt by the public or soldiers. This is purely a money-making face-saving operation he’s trying to figure out among his 3 different owners.
Whatever Trump does, expect waffling, flip-flopping, throwing his own negotiators under the bus, and then declaring victory no matter the outcome. So if he bombs Iran, expect a daily flip in the US position to not bomb them or asking to build a casino in Tehran and promising the Ayatollah it'll be beautiful. There will be no consistency because his golden retriever attention span mixed with narcissism mixed with his rubber ball-in-mouth, latex gimp devotion to his owners means he's everywhere and nowhere at once.
What's happening in the Mideast right now is a chess game. And Trump is the chicken who jumps on the table, knocks off all the chess pieces, and shits all over the board so expect him to be at his usual level nuance.
