I'd really like one of our conservative posters try to explain what it is that Donald is doing regarding the hurricane relief efforts.

 

Because from what I can see, it's really vile and embarrassing.

 

What exactly is he supposed to be doing?  He's not running the country.

 

He did call Elon and Elon is sending Starlink terminals to help in areas of need...

Doing nothing would be better than what he's currently doing. 

 

Heading into the area, diverting resources.

Lying out the wazoo, causing confusion. 

 

Just being a leader would be a good start and it'd make him look good. The man fumbles everything, it's unreal.

 

A hurricane hits, people are devastated, and his first thoughts are how he can help his own campaign with photo shoots and lies.

Why would anyone vote for Kamala.  It's not a coincidence that we are on the brink of war because of weakness.

 

Why would anyone vote for Trump?

 

He's the guy who tore up the Iran Nuclear Deal and assassinated one of their generals on Iraqi soil....

So going by your logic giving billions to fund terrorism is a good thing.  Do you shed a tear every time a terrorist is eliminated?

And we know this because Trump has told us so and he would never lie to us. 

Your delusional to think if only Trump lies.  I guess Kamala Harris is the definition of excellence.  She's sort of the American version of Trudeau who never lies and nothing is ever her fault.

To each their own.    And Iran was afraid to attack while Trump was in office.  So going by your logic giving billions to Iran is a good thing.  Do you shed a tear every time a terrorist is eliminated?

 

According to Trump and the numbskulls who worship him...

  • January 3: In a predawn air raid at Iraq’s airport in Baghdad, the US struck and killed Qassem Soleimani, the head of Iran’s elite Quds Force, and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the deputy commander of the Iran-backed group in Iraq known as the Popular Mobilisation Forces, or PMF. 

  • January 3: In its first comments on the killing, the White House said Soleimani was “actively developing plans to attack American diplomats and service members in Iraq and throughout the region”, and that the killing was aimed at “deterring future Iranian attack plans”. 

  • January 4: Trump threatened to hit 52 Iranian sites “very hard” if Iran attacked Americans or US assets. The 52 targets represented the 52 Americans who were held hostage in Iran for 444 days after being seized at the US embassy in Tehran in November 1979, he added.

  • January 5: Tens of thousands of mourners clad in black filled the streets of Iran’s Mashhad and Ahvaz to pay their respects to Soleimani. 

  • January 6: Army General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, claimed he saw intelligence which proves an Iranian attack was “imminent, and it was very, very clear in scale, scope”.

  • January 9: Trump said he chose to assassinate Soleimani “because they were looking to blow up our [Baghdad] embassy”. Later, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo reiterated that the attacks were “imminent”, adding: “We don’t know precisely when, and we don’t know precisely where … But it was real.”

  • January 8: Iran launched a series of missile attacks on two Iraqi bases housing US troops, including the Ain al-Assad military base, and a second facility near Erbil airport. In a Tweet, Iran’s Foreign Affairs Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said Iran had taken and concluded “proportionate measures in self-defence” under Article 51 of the UN Charter.

  • January 8:The Kyiv-bound flight (PS752) of Ukraine International Airlines crashed minutes after takeoff from the Imam Khomeini International Airport in Tehran, killing all 176 people on board.

  • January 13: Iran – grappling with public anger and international condemnation – denied a “cover-up” after it took days for officials to admit that the plane was mistakenly shot down during a confrontation with the US.

  • March 12: Three US-led coalition troops are killed after multiple rockets hit Taji military base housing US and coalition troops near Baghdad.
