Taking in all the “Reaction!” to the killing of the Iranian thug. Seems the same people who’ve been wrong about Russian collusion, wrong about the Mueller report, wrong on the economy, wrong on everything for the last three years are now prognosticating with certainty that WWIII is upon us.
For very good reasons President Trump excluded these clowns from any foreknowledge of this strike.
This was way overdue. If the Iranians want to “retaliate”, I can mark three large Persian refineries that would look just beautiful engulfed in massive fire.
Putin is upset that Qassem Soleimani was taken out.
Yet liberals & other robots still believe that Trump does whatever Putin wants proving that liberals are in an echo chamber.
QS wont be making the China Russia "war games" now.
