More than three full days after taking the United States into war with Iran, something he calls an "operation" because he did not get the constitutionally-mandated war declaration from Congress, our draft-dodger-in-chief is now scurrying around trying to come up with reasons for going to war as well as a list of what he hopes to accomplish through this military misadventure, a.k.a. "objectives."
Generally leaders clearly enunciate reasons and objectives BEFORE pumping lives and treasure into an overseas meat grinder, but our leader is just stumbling along rattling his sabres, patting himself on the back, and discussing White House drapes and his new ballroom - and talking about the war when it flits across his mind. There is nothing quite as reassuring as having a leader with less than a "laser focus" while he conducts war from a golf cart.
He does know that he is putting his FIFA Peace Prize at risk with this vainglorious production of lethal theatre, doesn't he?
Donald, oh Donald, think how much better off you and our country would be if you had actually served in the military and had some inkling of the horrendous mess into which you are dragging us. Perhaps then you would have put some thought into our reasons for attacking Iran, as well as a list of things we hoped to achieve through our efforts.
Reasons and objectives are good, Donald, for everyone. American taxpayers need some accountability as to how their taxes are being spent, and why. And the parents of those little girls who were crushed beneath falling slabs of concrete when their school was struck by our missiles over the weekend would undoubtedly like to know why their precious children had to lose their lives - and in such a grotesque, painful, and inhumane manner. Do you have any empathy, Donald, or even know what it is?
Do you even know what day it is?
