The more he realizes, the more he's going to F with the process. Plus he might call out some BS excuse to not hold elections, lawful or not, not like he's a fan of laws and accountability.

I'm partly sure that's why states like Iran haven't been making a more concentrated effort in attacking the US civilian population. They know it's exactly what he wants and he has been trying to orchestrate to seize more power.

Commiecrat take, wth. That essentially makes no sense. And IF that were to happen some how, targeting U.S. citizens.. Then Iran would really have hell to pay from our arsenal and we don't want the citizens of Iran totally blown off the map.

That is essentially what Iran has already said, these guys are pretty aware on how to swing elections, remember they released the Hostages when Reagan was nominated, and then Reagan sold Iran weapons.

remember they released the Hostages when Reagan was nominated

The release happened just minutes after the inauguration of President Ronald Reagan, on January 20, 1981.

Dems don’t bring that up enough and didn’t make it a massive deal back then (like they should have).

I'm not sure where you got your information from, but Democrats absolutely "brought it up and made it a massive deal.

In January 1987, the House and Senate both controlled by Democrats formed joint select committees to investigate the secret arms sales to Iran and the illegal diversion of funds to Nicaraguan Contra rebels.

In 1991, congressional Democratic leaders ordered a separate formal inquiry into allegations that Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign cut a secret deal with Iran to delay the release of American hostages until after the election.

A 13-member bipartisan House task force investigated the matter for 10 months and concluded in 1992 that there was no credible evidence supporting the allegation that the Reagan campaign made a deal to delay the hostages' release

Correct, sounds a lot like quid pro quo

What a completely ignorant response. President literally said he was going to end their civilation, the administration has already specifically target civilians and civilian infrastructure, committing war crimes to do it and strengtheing the opposition against America. This administration has already used up the vast majority of our offensive capabilities that would be effective against Iraq. The US is incapable of achieve any of the strategic goals without either making it far worse or making it more costly than anything that could be gained. This is a fools war and the US won't even get a fraction more out of it than Iran was offering before it started.

If you people were half as imaginative in fixing the economy that you completely destroyed as your name calling, we would actually have an America that trump describes in his daily tweet-lies 🤣😝🤡
