Trump’s War is Also his Biggest Folly in 80 Years

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

What do you get when you put together a mentally challenged, obese, old man, his criminal protégé, and a group of toy soldiers? Another lost war in the Middle East.

There’s a lesson in this story for all the uninformed men and women who continue to support the worst man in the world, Donald John Trump. What is happening to our country today is the result of choosing a wealthy, wannabe playboy to lead the most diverse and complicated nation in the world.

I could have titled this story, “The Fat Man, his Brother from Another Mother, and Their Toy Soldiers.” Whatever Trump claims he is accomplishing by unilaterally choosing to wage a deadly war against Iran is a lie.

The truth: Trump is the biggest loser in America’s history. He has failed at everything he attempted to accomplish. With Pete “Dumbass” Hegseth carrying out his orders, and our incompetent military brass in the Pentagon, America has lost its fifth war since WWII, and its third in the Middle East. Not one of Trump’s goals has become reality.

HOW IRAN’S LEADERS ‘SUCKER PUNCHED’ TRUMP AND HEGSETH

Trump ordered the first attacks on Iran on February 28th. His war has cost American taxpayers about one billion dollars each day. That is about 134 billion dollars.

Over the last 134 days, there have been occasional cease fires. Desperate to end his biggest mistake, Trump agreed. This gave Iran an opportunity to regroup and make additional plans to accomplish another victory against the armed forces of the United States.

Our arrogant and incompetent military leaders refuse to learn from history.

Between December of 1979 and February of 1989, the nation with the second largest military in the world, the Soviet Union, invaded Afghanistan. They left in shame with their tails between their legs.

George W. Bush’s war in Afghanistan and invasion of Iraq were clearly unwinnable from day one. However, the president with the second lowest intellect in history refused to face reality. Last February, the dumbest fake president in history thought he could accomplish the impossible. He simply added another failure to his lifelong list of disastrous results.

PETE HEGSETH: REALLY?

Trump was obviously in another world when he chose Pete Hegseth as his Secretary of Defense; (not “Secretary of War”). Hegseth is another lifelong loser. Add to that crimes of embezzlement from military charities, his history of being drunk and embarrassing himself and his associates in strip clubs, and the fact that his own mother referred to him as a sexual predator, and what do you have? Another major loser.

I am one of several political writers who firmly believe that Trump intentionally chose the worst people possible for his cabinet and close advisers. There is no other possibility.

I’m sure you nearly forgotten about Kristi Noem and Tulsi Gabbard. However, you are also asking yourself, “how are Kash Patel, Robert Kennedy Jr., and Hegseth still wasting taxpayer dollars and partying without performing their jobs?”

I do have an answer, because it’s obvious. Trump has never worked a single day in his pitiful life and expects nothing more from those who pretend to worship him. They share beliefs in white privilege and male dominance. Patel is his token “brown-skinned” man.

TRUMP DOESN’T EVEN KNOW THE TRUTH

Iran’s religious leaders are far more intelligent than Trump. They have learned lessons from Vladimir Putin and the Saudi Royal Family. They are using his malady, known as malignant narcissism to satisfy his enormous ego.

BACK TO SQUARE ONE?

The Strait of Hormuz is closed again, and both sides of this fiasco are exchanging threats like schoolyard bullies.

Intelligent human beings learn from their own past mistakes and those of others. However, Trump’s ego forces him to believe that he “has never done anything wrong.”

Those of us who know the real Donald Trump know the truth: he has never done anything right in 80 years.
