If Trump bombs power plants in Iran, the humanitarian crisis will be horrific. Experts tell me to expect water shortages, closed hospitals, many deaths. "We've never had a US president so proudly promise to commit war crimes," Sen Chris Murphy says. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2087 ...

I love the smell of human chains in the morning.

Smells like victory.

Smells more like BS to me.

Iran values it's youth more than that.

Those reports have been debunked. They weren't believable.

If the People did it spontaneously they should have been discouraged.

The reports I read said the Iranian goverment discouraged spontaneous gatherings.

Protect them from the ever increasing hollow threat?

48 hours!

5 days!

Two weeks!

How he got the label of a "art of the deal" really boggles the mind. Unless he has the power to withhold payment, he has nothing. He caves all the time.

The ----- of the Deal.

TACO Tuesday. The Buffoon caves again.

Don't get me wrong. Anything that slows, stops or interferes with the Buffoon throwing of billions of dollars at dirt in Iran in OK with me.

It's just the theater is so f****** comical. Perhaps SNL should do a skit.
