And now he's got a new enemy: Spain. Can't wait to see how this plays out.

“Several Trump advisers lamented the fact that Mr. Carlson was no longer on Fox, which meant that Mr. Trump was not hearing much of the other side of the debate.”

Isn't that like...their job as advisors?

Ta, Marcie. That Thing in the Offal Office doesn't understand how anything works, which is fitting, because he has never worked at anything in his entire worse-than-worthless existence.

"Pete Hegseth and Dan “Razin” Caine conceded on national TV that the Fordo Frodo-bunker was damaged, but not destroyed. Guess who wasn’t trying to hear that though! TruthSocialed he,

“The sites that we hit in Iran were totally destroyed, and everyone knows it."

`

Wow, he's really THAT much of a baby.

I suppose we should keep our expectations realistic, and count our blessings that he only tweeted, "ARE SO, TOO!!", instead of openly threatening Hegseth and Caine's families.

So what's with the "Thank you for your attention to this matter!"? Is that new? I don't remember seeing it before this last week or so. Someone must have told him it sounds grownup and businesslike.

He picked that phrase up from all of the delinquent payment notices he's gotten from all the contractors he's stiffed over the years.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION etc. is... I'm literally embarrassed for him.

Some shattered fragment of brain in that big, empty, hideously coiffed head remembers that big, important, grown-up, businessmen end their letters with that phrase when they're doing important, grown-up stuff like making business deals, so now he just sticks it at the end of everything.

He obviously thinks it makes him sound like a SRS grown-up attending to SRS BSN, but it's like the Playskool Bizzy Box version of an actual business letter. It's like a toddler trying to fill in a crossword puzzle by writing a big, crayoned "C" that covers four boxes.

He's not even USING the phrase correctly. It's for when you request a specific action, e.g., "I am enclosing the schedule for next week; please post it on the bulletin board. Thank you for your attention to this matter." It does not mean, "Thank you for paying attention to me", even though we know that's all he cares about.

If he weren't such a complete shit heap of a "human being", this would actually be pathetic.

I reckoned that by "spectacular success, never seen before in the history of the universe" he meant "embarrassing partial or entire failure." That's how Trump-talk works. I think Iran's takeaway from getting bombed by Israel and the USA is, "There's no way we can defend ourselves using conventional weapons. We can't even assert control over our own air space." It's easy to predict what their next move will be, isn't it? They'll develop a bomb as quickly as they can. The alternative would be abject surrender and compliance, and I don't believe they'll do that--it would be politically untenable.

The deterioration of his mental state is accelerating and we are watching it happen.

He's now living in his own fantasy world and getting mad whenever reality contradicts him. And he clearly also now believes that the title "PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES" means jack-shit to anyone other than the US. He really thinks it means he's in charge of whole other countries now.

CNN is reporting that the bombing has set Iran’s nuclear program back by months. Months, I tell you!

That was a whole bunch of trucks hauling something out of that mountain. Much more than just 900 lbs. of enriched Uranium. Could have packed up the whole lab for all we know. We blew some big holes in that mountain though!

In a JunkYardDogg News deep investigative research project, I have discovered exactly where the Ayatollah & the IRG have hidden their 400 kilos of enriched Uranium. The Iranians have brilliantly secreted their Uranium inside Noah’s Ark in Kentucky. As any true patriot would do, I conveyed this information, drawn out on an aged piece of Indians Jones like parchment, to Greaseball Hegseth. Expect a massive B2 bomber strike on Noah’s Ark soon.
