He kinda just did it.
There was no provocation or strategic benefit and starting a war with Iran would obviously impact the global markets and the cost of oil.
No upsides, plenty of downsides, and the idiot just said “fuck it, let’s do a peace with my department of war!”
It’s like he’s actively trying to speed run the collapse of the economy. In his first term, he was able to ride the trajectory Obama set, despite his best efforts, until Covid happened. This time, he’s seeing if he can start a recession before the midterms.
Almost like he doesn’t work for the American people, eh?
