    The blockade of the Persian Gulf does not exist anymore. A carrier was hit by a missile and they pulled back 500km. They should just leave, it is only showing more and more weakness. The only thing the GOP knows is doubling/tripling/quadrupling down on being wrong. They usually can buy their way out or litigate until the other party runs out of money and gives up, but the military is powered by people and they don’t understand people.

      What the US is doing has nothing to do with Republicans vs. Democrats. This imperialism is all we do. To blame the ‘GOP’ for this instead of the US is to admit you don’t care what’s causing these sufferings.

        They removed all of the competent military leaders and are ignoring intelligence. This is a uniquely stupid situation and no matter how much you try to convince yourself, both sides are not the same.
