There are several points to consider when discussing Operation Epstein and Donnie Dementia’s determination to stage his very own Wag the Dog operation against Iran.

First and formost is his dismissive, callous way of anticipating additional U.S. casualties:

“Sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. That’s the way it is. Likely be more, but we’ll do everything possible where that won’t be the case.” The president also told The New York Times on Sunday that projections from the Pentagon suggest U.S. casualties could be “quite a bit higher” than what has already been seen.

Go to the 1:11 mark on this disgusting video to hear him actually say it without a hint of empathy or emotion–almost as though he was reading it from a teleprompter.

“That’s the way it is”? That sorry-ass bastard.

The obvious response is for Donnie Jr., Eric, Barron and Jared Kushner to sign-up, suit-up and ship out to the friendly sand-soaked amenities of the Mideast. To that suggestion, a regular reader added, “Why limit the faux soldiers to family? [Stephen] Miller? [Steve] Bannon? [Pete] Hegseth? When he has no one to hold his hand or any other appendage-then he might cry uncle.”

Thom Hartmann added in today’s Hartmann Report, “Given that Baron, Don Jr, and Eric Trump all apparently suffer from hereditary bone spurs and no Trump has ever served as a “loser” or “sucker” in our military, it’s unlikely this war will mean anything other than profit-making opportunities for the Trump children.”

During the presidency of Barack Obams, ol’ Cankle Ankles took numerous potshots at him, claiming that should he (Obama) encounter political problems, he’d start a war with Iran:

“In order to get elected, @BarackObama will start a war with Iran.” (2011)

“Our president will start a war with Iran because he has absolutely no ability to negotiate. He’s weak and he’s ineffective…” (2011)

“@BarackObama will attack Iran in the not too distant future because it will help him win the election.” (2012)

“Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin — watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.” (2012)

“I predict that President Obama will at some point attack Iran in order to save face!” (2013)

“Remember what I said about @BarackObama attacking Iran before the election…” (2012)

How ironic–and at the same time, moronic.

But just in case you need any other reminder of the current morass the fat-ass has foisted:
