Nah, gotta wait for a bigger bomb.

The Times of Israel - Trump: ‘Iran, Israel have been fighting so long they don’t know what the f*** they’re doing’

today

A visibly furious US President Donald Trump blasts Israel for its strikes after he announced a ceasefire would be starting in the coming hours, and for now preparing airstrikes in response to an Iranian missile fired after the truce went into effect.

... just like Donald.  🙄

The NY Times - Strike Set Back Iran’s Nuclear Program by Only a Few Months, U.S. Report Says

 

breaking

 

The attack sealed off the entrances to two nuclear facilities but did not collapse their underground buildings, classified findings indicated.

 

The report suggests that President Trump’s earlier statement on the strike’s success was overstated.

 

The early findings conclude that the strikes over the weekend set back Iran’s nuclear program by only a few months, the officials said. ...

 

The White House took issue with the assessment. Karoline Leavitt, a White House spokeswoman, said it was “flat-out wrong.”

 

 

 

 

There is also talk that Iran sealed the entrances themselves to thwart any ground special op.
So USA just double sealed them to make them safer? MIGA ! 

Digging them back out again would seem to be no problem, even digging new ones. 
Perhaps conventional ballistic missiles have proven themselves to be better.
Just build enough of them. Now everyone will want massive stockpiles.

With peace IRGC can go back to terrorizing its own people, until it can get back to exporting. 

What Trump believes and what Trump says he believes?
He is not a trustworthy witness to himself or anything else.

When Trump starts advising himself, creating his own reality, feeling his power and divinity.
Who knows probably not even Trump.

A dictator has to be a 'Strongman', USA has given Trump tools to never feel consequences.
He can perhaps see Elon had a point, empathy makes you weak. 

That might remind Trump of his dad and the book of speeches he left him beside his bed.

Another baffling quote from James, with a very sharp response:

Some interesting reading - this guy (who used to work for the sadly now-defunct 538 website) suggests that if the Democrats want to win in 2028, they need their own version of Trump.

Makes sense. When they go high or low, you go lower or higher.

And preferably nonsensical and arbitrary, like Reagan with his irritating dismissals of Jimmy Carter with 'There you go again!'

Sounds like South America.

Flip Flop from Right Wing Autocrat, to Left Wing Autocrat, to Right Wing Autocrat etc.

Trump is already doing the 'disappearance' thing. 
Just needs ICE to accidently disappear opponents and he is well on the way. 

Americans seem to beyond understanding the concept of Social Democrats, and you can have Left of center, Right of center and mixed.
Anything social is a Communist Dictatorship to Americans.
The binary society that only understands extremes. Social media is ideal for this. 

Good point, just a pity that the answer is still "sadly, yes" (for some people):

kingdragonfly: NATO chief calls Trump ‘Daddy’: Politico

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte surprised reporters Wednesday by calling President Donald Trump “Daddy,” a moment of levity in a serious NATO summit.

As the two leaders greeted each other before reporters ahead of meetings, Trump drew a question about the profanity he used a day earlier to chastise both Israel and Iran for violating a recently brokered ceasefire, and his comparing them to unruly children. “They’ve had a big fight, like two kids in a school yard. They fight like hell, you can’t stop them. Let them fight for about two, three minutes, then it’s easier to stop them,” Trump said in a press appearance alongside Rutte, echoing language he has used to describe Ukraine and Russia.

Rutte took the fighting kids analogy a bit further: “Daddy has to sometimes use strong language.”
...

He is a smart guy. We all know Trump is a lacklustre narcisistic idiot. But if you fawn and grovel to him, you will get a result. Putin done it, Jong Un Kim done it, Netanyahu who had a fraught relationship with him is doing it. Zelensky told the truth, not bagging him, but disagreeing and UKR got hammered. Cut off intel, weapons are on the downer. Suck up to Trump if the greater good benefits. Truth and honesty? We all love it and want it, but wait till the 3.5 years left roll out first. Sad to say, but thats where we are
