Republican hawks vs Maga isolationists: the internal war that could decide Trump’s Iran response
Trump could decide to help Israel by joining the fight against Iran, or refrain from involving the US in a new overseas war – either choice will upset his support

This could be interesting, in addition to leaving the G7 early Trump also attacked Macron and snubbed the Australian Prime Minister.

The paid protestors accusation is so foolish, when you see ~5 million Americans turn out, and, and in an aspect that I think makes this protest movement so unique from others I remember earlier in my life: it’s as if this movement is the “Revolution of the Signs”. I’ve never seen anything like it. At every demonstrations that were sizable, thousands and thousands of HOMEMADE signs. Reflecting how each of the sign holders feel about the state of America today. The last thing anyone would conclude is that “these people are being paid”. These malcontents are griping that wealthy are paying for all these demonstrations? Paying for what??! Free rides to the event? Free food trucks for the crowds? A check in the mail?
Full stop: you cannot look at the thousands of homemade signs, the thoughtful and clever things concerned Americans are broadcasting on each and every one of those signs, and conclude “this is all contrived, these are paid actors”.
It’s dumb, dumb, and dumber. And if AG Bondi decides to investigate, let it be a warning: it will mean Trump is going on a counteroffensive against the No Kings movement. It may mean cracked skulls, haul offs, like we see in Putin’s Russia when demonstrators get too close to the truth with the accusations they level. We should expect Trump to stop at nothing to protect himself. But, cracking down on a movement this large, this spontaneous(not planned in back rooms with dirty money), this beautiful and encouraging sign that the American people DO understand what they have, and they have no intention of losing our democracy without a fight, WILL backfire. As long as we stand committed to resist, we will prevail.
Another thing the “they’re paid!” clowns will never understand: attend a rally. Feel the exhilaration of mingling with thousands of fellow Americans that feel as you feel. Don’t think you won’t notice! It will only make you want to attend such events every week! Few things better than mingling with friends, and mostly strangers, who are smiling back, as you smile at them, reading all the signs, and telling you: “This is a movement, I am a part of it, this is way bigger than just me, it is so ENLIVENING to be here today”. It will only grow if Trump tries to stamp it out.
Signs…
Out of FEAR and desperation, MAGA levels accusations. They want this to go away. It’s not going away! Threats of investigations will not stop our movement.

Talk of the parade soldiers purposely marching(walking) out of step. The comments from veterans claim that was the case. And the squeaky tanks, which may have been on purpose too. Hilarious.

Cool! Only the rich can enjoy the mountains and rivers. Exactly what the working class slob voted for last fall. Elections have consequences

Pretty sure Trump is telling Tehran to evacuate because Israel is opening a can on Iran. I think… that’s what he’s referring to? Then again, it’s Trump. So maybe he’s telling Los Angeles to evacuate because of black people or something?
In true adult fashion, I think Trump is telling millions to evacuate Tehran or be blown away by Israel. So mature and responsible as real countries are waging war against real people with real life consequences.
I don’t have any love for Iran’s government. But it’s pretty irresponsible for the president of the United States to just be tweeting this sort of thing out there. Is Israel pushing for regime change? Are we supporting them in that? Are there steps to be made to prevent a humanitarian disaster if thousands are killed, millions displaced, and Iran (70 million people) find themselves without a government?
Guess it doesn’t matter. The teevee president is tweeting. So entertaining. Fun!

Does Donald have insider information that his national security advisor doesn’t? Or does he really not care what she thinks? Who appointed her to that position?
This is really concerning. If our president doesn’t care what national security advisor says, how can we rely on them to keep us safe? Shouldn’t these *** clowns be in the same page?

This pisses me off. I ride dirt bikes in American Fork canyon often and that land is used by hundreds if not thousands every day for hiking, biking, moto, etc.
The Rapist is publicly inserting the USA into this war when he could keep it on the down low. What an idiot.

Sorry working class slob, that’s an awesome canyon. It’s too nice for you unclean masses. Elon, Zuckerberg, and Trump are gonna make a lot of money building condos off tibble fork, a ski resort off silver lake, and paving all over cascade springs. I’m sure you poor loser can find some trail or something west of eagle mountain to recreate on. Don’t like that? Angry at the rich? Here, let me distract you with some woke black trans Muslim woke, are you distracted and angry yet?
I love American fork canyon. I’ll be running in it this weekend!

So **** Ukraine, cuz war is bad but hells yeah, bomb bomb bomb Iran cuz war is good. So we’ll support the theoretical war of extinction (Israel fighting for survival) but not support the actual war of extinction (Putin invading Ukraine and slaughtering countless innocents)?
Where’s the Trump suckers on this website? Why aren’t they pissed that Donald is starting world war 3 with Iran? Isn’t war bad? Peace is good? I thought Donald was supposed to be a dove?

They need some of our bombs that can, as I understand it, only be dropped by a B-2 bomber, in order to destroy some of Iran's most hardened facilities.
While I'm not enthusiastic about this little adventure, now that it is underway I think Iran's nuclear capability MUST be completely obliterated before it is over. This is a one time opportunity to wipe an unstable theocratic regime from the nuke club for good. I don't want Iran to have nukes.
