All Trump is doing is to find what formula of words and behaviors that lead him to the highest level of popularity. Or said another way, reduce the maximum amount of shame.

This is the sort of thing he has always done and always will do. He's crazy, and this is one way he acts that way.

Trump has actual voices in his head. They are legion. Putin and Netanyahu are just two of them.

*** Vladimir Putin Vows Unwavering Support for Iran's New Ayatollah ***

Meanwhile, Dummkopf Trumpf bleated to junta apparatchiks that he's open to murdering Mojtaba Khamenei (Source: WSJ)

Why is the spiritual head of a religion a legitimate military target?

The US is a country of killers led by a cheap mafioso wannabe.

Why would he want this war to end?

It's weakening America.

It's creating an increased demand for oil.

Trump rolled back Russian Oil Sanctions.

Putin is dangling his oil in front of Europe and they'll capitulate soon enough.

This all a win for Russia.

Great points, Clownshack.

The French moved their aircraft carrier to the Middle East and Ukraine may be sending anti-drone weapons to the US.

Europe is weaker now thanks to Bibi.

But Vladimir Putin vowing his undying loyalty to the new ayatollah doesn't cost him one ruble.

And Putin still needs Shahed drones from Iran, so he has to make nice with the Iranian military-industrial complex.

Did Putin thank the mush-brained chomo for easing sanctions on Russian oil?

@#2 ... Netanyahu is running the war... best talk to him first. ...

Exactly.

All this talk by Pres Trump about meeting [unspecified] objectives and the war being mostly done, we've not heard a word from Israel.

Are the aims of Israel and the US even the same regarding Iran?

Looks like Trump is caught between a cuck and nutcase.

Which master will he abide? I suppose it's whichever one has the most dirt on him.

Well, Putin got what he wanted from his asset, when Trump started the war of aggression against Iran, it meant Putin would never stand charges for the same in his mass murder of Ukrainians.

Trump is taking advice about ending a war quickly from the guy who invaded Ukraine?

Trump also took advice on how to not sexually abuse underage girls from Epstein.

Trump, as U.S. president, should have suggested, "how about you quit giving intelligence to Iran and just f*&! off?!"

But we know he can't. Putin has something on Trump, and Trump's scared sh*$less Putin will reveal it to the public.

What can Putin have on Trump that would move the needle anywhere at this point? No one is going to believe any source on anything if they don't want to.

MAGAts won't. But they do believe the most ridiculous other things. 30% of the American electorate are gullible rubes.

The expression on Putin's face reminds me of that of a proud father being so proud of what his child has achieved.
