Politics will be shit if he loses.

Bush must've done that a couple of times during his stint.
'Too old, eh?'
There's no way this guy is gonna win but by God people are going to give him money to drive around the country talking about malarkey.
Biden vs. Trump debates will be a glorious display of what dementia does to people.
:D Legit looking forward to 4 more years of this dude.
It appears that most of America have forgotten about the Senates role in this process. Lol
Has Trump picked Bobby Lashley to represent him yet?
Vince could fund his first XFL season if he story lined that stipulation.
This must basically just cement his re-election even more. Even if he was actually stripped of the Presidency, he'd run again anyway and get re-elected.
I wonder if you could run for President if you've been removed from Office?
According to the BBC, you absolutely can.
This man is about to lose an election to Donald Trump.
Wasting Qassem Soleimani seems like an odd thing to do when you claim not to want endless conflict in the Middle East.
Getting the Qod commander + his right hand man in Iraq, as well as Hezbollahs second in command sounds like a pretty good get to me for one airstrike.

This is pretty massive.
The planet probably needs a WW3 at this stage anyway.
So I woke up to this today and it seems like a not good thing at all.
Why were the US bombing an airport?
Because The Donald would happily throw the whole world under the bus to avoid getting impeached.
Because Trump runs foreign policy like a mob boss, which may or may not be a good thing.
He's been impeached already and it was already a done deal that he wouldn't be removed from office.Quote:

What are Iran going to do in retaliation, level Dubai? Sign me up on Team Ayatollah.
That's pretty cozy. I wish my trial had consisted of a jury of my mom, my dad, a few lads from the local and Raj the newsagent.Quote:

Do the Iranians not have nukes? Not going to be much of a cleanse without them.
I read that the rest of the region (Assad aside) all hate Iran now, to the point where Israel are on the same page as several Arab nations. That may be an over-simplification but this is no time for nuance.
I think they have the capability to produce, rather than the actual nukes themselves. Either way, if they go firing them off then it'll be (more of a) barren shithole within 20 minutes and they'll be fully aware of that.Quote:

Apparently you can.
Great for the oil price which is good because I want to sell some shares. Cheers donny T for putting US nationals in OPEC territory in significant danger.
Twitter has been incredible. We need more instances like this more often.
One convoy a day keeps the impeachment at bay.
Saudi rather than Iran in that instance.Quote:

You know it's serious Joe Bidens abandoned the 'No Malarkey' bus.
Does that mean he's changed his position on malarkey and how much of it is permissible?
I think he's just come to terms that we live in a malarkey-based economy.
He's went back to the printers with a slight amendment. "No? Malarky!"
No it's been rebranded to 'Battle for the soul of the nation' which I'm not sure quite works alongside his 'Everything will be fine when we get rid of this Trump guy' platform.
That is some change of tone.
Mike Pompeo can do one. If you want us to be supportive, maybe don't fire a series of flaming cheeseburgers into the direct proximity of our troops who are still hanging around there from the last time we were supportive.
If you needed any sign of how badly this admin was going to be on foreign policy. Pompeo going from CIA Director to Sec. of State was it. Imagine making the Director of MI6, the Home Secretary. It's mental.Quote:

Iraq have just voted to remove US troops from the country. Just 4d chess to bring the boys home.
That is pretty big. Someone somewhere is writing up how this is all a Russian work.
I was going to have beans on toast tonight but the Russian deep state has made me have mushrooms instead.
History is doomed to repeat itself because absolute dumbasses care more about looking cool than doing good.
