1. Hell!

I understand it.

2. I doubt he could find Iran on a map. And if he could, he clearly knows nothing about its borders

(both water and countries). Unfortunately that is probably true of most Americans today. But at least if shown several maps of the region, including the Strait of Hormuz, I do think they would "get it."

Trump has always been an ignorant, arrogant man who could not be bothered to try to learn. That said, I do believe he has had a lifelong difficulty with reading and comprehension. That which he accused Governor Newsom, most likely applies to him. But, now he has lost his filter with advancing dementia, so his delusions guide his actions. He is a seriously dangerous man and sadly, I'm not sure many of us will live to see things turn around. The latter will take decades, if that.

4. Remember that Trump, not that long ago, made the claim that one could easily walk from Qatar to...

Iran, a distance of about 34 miles, across open water. The man is ignorant and stupid...

10. I never heard that. When did it happen?

5. Does Gallipoli ring a bell?

[MLWR]

7. Not to trump, I'd bet good money on that.

He wouldn't be able to A) find it on a map or B) tell you its significance. If he saw the movie, he still wouldn't know..

11. Guessing he doesn't know North from South (witness his fondling the bible.

6. Does the Air Force even still have any A-10's?

They’ve been retiring them left and right. Do they still even have any?

[littlemissmartypants]

9. They won't if DJ gets his hands on them. ETTD

[doubleplusgood]

16. Idaho National Guard has them

Landing in Boise last year we saw a dozen or so A-10s while we were taxiing to a gate.

12. That'll stir up Trump.

Provided he sees it. I could see him getting so worked up over it that bulging vein in his brain goes “pop!”

Bye bye.

And yes, it would leave a mess like we’ve never seen before.

15. Exactly what "cognitive deficit", greg? The one the msm invented

and screamed endlessly about? Because they sure as hell are not covering the one we see before us every day. Funny how that works.

18. I never served in the military, but even I knew this.
