Trump said he wanted to “see a tremendous victory” in the November election, “’cause it verifies all the things we did. And again, remember, with the war it’s just artificial, it’s a little bit high.”

“It’s a small price to pay for keeping the world safe, keeping our country safe,” he continued. “They can take out a city, let ’em take out Los Angeles, let ’em take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay.”

The crowd cheered.

    Alright, media and experts, time for you to say President Donald Trump ‘aspires’ to commit terrorism on the USA.

      I think he’s trying to drum up enough public support to be able to nuke Iran. That’s the “we’ll finish it soon no matter what” thing.

      He’s a mad king and must be stopped at all costs at this point.

    He said this because he has been informed that Islamic Republic will or has had a nuke smuggled into the USA. He’s too dumb to keep a secret, and just blurted it out like the senile buffoon he is.

    (I have no evidence other than that I know this would be my top priority if I had the same motivations and means as Iran. I won’t nuke Israel because I want to own it)

    This has been a world war for years, they just don’t call it that. Iraq, 9-11, Iran, Israel, Palestine, Lebanon, Yemen, Ethiopia, it’s all the same war, it’s Islamic Republic vs. the rest of the Earth (including other Islam).

    I thought the entire idea of fucking up the economy, killing a bunch of people, degrading our military status and spending tens of billions was to prevent Iran from “taking out” a city? Helpfully, the ex-WWE douche Cheung explains he obviously meant the opposite of what he said.

    Love that he’s doing a rally in Grand Island. For anyone not familiar, it’s a rather boring and methed up town of about 50,000 about 3 hours from Omaha.

      The mid-west mouth breathers that cheered for this have no idea about any of that; it’s just ‘California bad’.

      They don’t know that the top two ports in the entire US is LA/LB. you think our distribution systems are fucked now with raising diesel prices? Just wait until there’s nothing to ship. They don’t know how vital Camp Pendleton is as a mainland port for the military in the Pacific. You thought the Lincoln looked bad now? Just wait until the Navy gets hit in the knee caps.

      And to be clear; I’m not worried about an Iran strike. I’m worried about these mouth breathers galvanising and committing domestic terrorism. The GOP has been running dog fighting rings for decades and the voter base are those abused and tormented pit bulls. He’s just pointed them at two vital American cities and said ‘have at em’.
