Trump's Iran and North Korea strategies are both falling apart, and it couldn't come at a worse time

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Donald Trump once claimed his deal-making prowess and toughness would enable him to face down and reduce the threat from America's enemies abroad.

So far Trump's "maximum pressure" strategies in Iran and North Korea has achieved little, and in the case of Iran seems to have spurred increased aggression.

On Tuesday, Iraqi protesters and members of pro-Iranian militias attacked the US embassy in Baghdad, torching a reception area, in an incident with echoes of the 1979 Iranian embassy siege.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has frozen weapons tests, but is forging ahead with developing new nuclear weapons and long-range missiles that could target the US.

1. And he is all alone - no allies will step up to help.....

Even israel doesn't want a shooting war with iran if they have to rely on trump for help. They know they will be up against russia and china in addition to iran. And they will be a prime target for iranian countermeasures.

You won't see nato helping much. Certainly none of the anzi nations will support us. Japan, nope. France/germany/italy/greece. nope.

He has pissed off or abandoned just about every allied nation, and now he cowers alone and helpless in a mess he created all by himself. Hr has even shredded the very US govt infrastructure he would need to actually put pressure on iran or nk, and fighting a war would be disastrous.

3. Iran would be the graveyard for the vaunted IDF.

Israel's warfighting strategy has been the same since day one: get the enemy out of Israel's tiny country and away from populated areas, and back into their own country to do the bulk of the fighting there.

Iran is immense, and highly mountainous. Any force Israel were to send in there would get swallowed up without a trace.

Of course, Bibi could probably convince Trump to get U.S Forces to do the bulk of the fighting and dying in any war with Iran.

2. t-rump had strategies? Who knew . . .

If the PR in Iraq make good on his promise to hold a "untarnished" election specifying it's people to decide the fate of USA's ouster and Un Kim, Mr. Dictator, continues to develop nuclear weapons, unchallenged, than yeah, t-rump. administration and the Republican party are worthless.

Coupled with the total fuck up concerning Ukraine, Syria, Kurds, Turkey, and many other countries, then all the talk about Republicans are known to keep America safe crapola are based on lies.

Lies, lies, lies and they don't give a fuck . .

4. he doesn't... putin does.

trump just does what he is told to (think and) do.

If putin wants the us to wage a devastatingly disastrous war, trump will order it. Then putin will call him back and step in to exert his influence.

Childs play, cept vlad aint no kid.

5. Putin Strategy

is to do whatever hurts America the most and Trump is happy to go along with it.
