This is the part that Trump-hating, CNN-regurgitating, mouth-breathers hate to comment on. It destroys their narrative that Trump's foreign policy is a disaster and that he's dangerous to America and the world.

That doesn't ring true.

He shouldn't have said that, but Trump says a lot of things that he probably shouldn't say. His actions though, are extremely on-point 99.9% of the time. I can't say the same for Obama or Trudeau.

LMAO, you're sooooo not Canadian dude. My guess is that if you live here, you still don't even have a Canadian passport yet and you're on a terrorist watchlist.

The US doesn't need to go to war with Iran. They're already way out front. It's Iran that needs war if they want to save face, and that's not a good enough reason imo. I'm pushing for people to realize that under Trump, almost no US soldiers are dying. There are almost no civilian casualties in the ME. Islamic state is no longer a landholder. The leadership of islamic state is dying off. The Quds leadership, which is reviled across the ME for their legacy of murder & torture, is dying. Iran and NoKo are suffering, but they don't have to be. They can make better choices. After the election in November they'll know whether or not they can keep getting away with what they've been doing for all these recent years.

Trump isn't going to go to war. He doesn't need to. He's changed the game. It used to be called "Our peons will kill your peons", now it's "You can play stupid 'til one of our soldier gets hurt, then you're a valid military target."

Really? Grow up. You can stop pretending you're a Canadian conservative now. Even the CNN viewers have figured it out by now. Everyone knows that you're a terrorist-sympathizing, west-hating, foreigner (you'd say fellow Canadian if you really were one of us) who's willfully ignorant of every transgression committed by Suleimani, Khomeini etc and keen to turn any action by Trump into "THE WORST THING SINCE TO HAPPEN TO THE WORLD SINCE NANCY PELOSI WAS BORN!"

What do you want libs to speak about? How the US should just let Iran keep bombing tankers, shooting down drones, killing protestors, and attacking US embassies? Conservatives are angry taxpayers. Angry about spending money on unaffordable illegal immigration, angry about billions going overseas, angry about ridiculous government handouts, etc. That doesn't mean that conservatives want to wait til Iran beefs up their military so that they can make some bigger attacks in the future. Be thankful for Trump and the US dude. Be thankful that Obama and his wads of cash aren't here to keep Iran happy for a few more months while they stockpile more weapons.

Cite? And not something behind a paywall. I didn't move the goalposts at at all. Hunter admitting that his dad got him that job is like saying that Burisma was giving $50K/mo to the Biden family. That's the same Burisma that is widely acknowledged to be on of the most corrupt companies in Ukraine. The firing of Shokin doesn't ring any bells?

He'll send money to Iran and attend Sulaimani's funeral.

You know what I hate more than CNN right now? The people who regurgitate their drivel.

From the New Yorker: https://www.newyorker.com/news/our-columnists/the-us-assassinated-suleimani-the-chief-exporter-of-irans-revolution-but-at-what-price So: -11 attacks by Kata'ib Hezbollah (Iranian militia), -5 air strikes by the US on Kata'ib, -Iran's militia attacks a US Embassy, killing a private defence contractor, -The US kills the top general in Iran's Quds force (who was in Iraq at the time) with a drone strike, **(Iraq asks the US and Iranian forces to leave Iraq, US refuses)** -Iran attacks two Iraqi AFBs with Americans present (the only smart thing Iran ever did, because killing Iraqis will strengthen their resolve to oust Amricans), then.... IMO, when the US responds, their best move is to destroy Iranian missile DEFENCE systems, Iranian radar stations, and then make Iran into a no-fly zone.

For Argus. You can hit the back button if you want to see the original in all it's hyper-glorious awesomeness.

You speak fluent CNN and nary a sensible word Boges. I'll just leave it at that.

Hunter even admitted that he "probably" got that job because his last name was Biden. https://www.dailywire.com/news/hunter-biden-admits-he-probably-got-high-paying-jobs-because-im-the-son-of-the-vice-president One page back I posted a video of Joe Biden saying that he didn't know that Hunter was on the board of Burisma in a reply to Boges. Joe Biden absolutely stated on camera that [paraphrasing] "he didn't even know that Hunter was on the board of Burisma when he fired the prosecutor". TOTAL LIE. And honestly Argus, you've been opining on the topic for long enough that you should know all this by now. Paywall... Regarding Trump Junior and Ivanka, they're still working in the exact same businesses that they were working in before Trump became President, on the same continent, in the same country, for the same company that they were in 2015. Another major difference is that they're not even acquiring any new real estate while Trump is in office, so in fact they've curtailed their business somewhat. Are you honestly trying to compare that with H Biden? Hunter "got hired" in the Ukraine, where he'd never worked before, in the oil and gas sector, where he'd never worked before, when he didn't even speak Ukrainian, they paid him $50K per month, and they gave him all that money while he was busy off-continent for long periods of time running a business based out of North America and mainly invested in China. Sure Argus, that's just like the Trump kids. Are you honestly making that comparison because it's like comparing a quivering bunny to a raging elephant. And if that's not enough, there's still the matter of "how did Hunter fly to China on AF2 and just walk out with $500M in new business from the Communist Bank of China" to contend with. (and again, his dad didn't know what he was going to China for) If you tried to tell the full & honest story of how Hunter Biden is innocent with a straight face you'd turn BRIGHT purple. Literally no one on earth is stupid enough to believe it. So Biden apologists just say "CNN and the Dems say it's all good. What more evidence could we possibly need?"

You must come from de Nile region. NVM Marocc.

That's a total non-sequitur Argus. The post says, basically "why is it so easy for me to spot CNN's obvious lies when you never manage to catch any at all"? It doesn't say anything about what anyone else said, just CNN. I'm not finding these CNN lies with any info from Trump, or Fox News, this is all from cross-referencing CNN's own information that they put out. They say two things that don't jive. 1) Some people notice, 2) some people don't. 3) Some people can't even connect the dots when you put the info right there in one post with all the links. Which crowd are you in? (the correct answer is 3) Care to guess? (the answer is right above here. It's 3. You can get this one thing right. Just reply "3")

Get real Argus. Biden got his kid a cushy $50K/mo job, lied and said he knew nothing about it, finally admitted that he did know about it when presented photo evidence, and this was after he bragged on national TV that he withheld $1B in loan guarantees until the prosecutor who was investigating his son's company was fired. His kid also flew to China on AF2 and closed hundreds of millions of dollars worth of business with the communist bank of China. Again, Joe said he didn't talk to Hunter about what he was doing in China. Never said a word. Why did Biden pretend not to know his son worked there if there was nothing wrong with what he was doing? Why does he always pretend that he never talked to his kid and suddenly his kid is up to his eyeballs in money? Why are you so adamant that this is all above board? Utter hypocrisy, that's why.

BS. I showed the CNN quote, stated exactly how it was incorrect, and then showed their own webpage where they had all of the correct info. You just ignored that part. Shocker.

Yes, they do. They buy their radar, missiles, missile defence systems, drones, etc. All they could make themselves is boats that don't float planes that don't fly. They don't all hurt, but the defence systems give them the feeling that they can sit comfortably at home and keep brainwashing kids to strap on explosives.

There you go again. Failing to back a claim which you chose to make. If there was no evidence to back your claim then you just shouldn't have made it in the first place. Here's a thing that bugs me.... Why is it that I only have to be exposed to CNNery for a minute to expose and conclusively prove material lies in their propaganda and you never-Trumpers are exposed to it constantly and can't even catch them one time? Do you need me to do all of your thinking for you? Do you never get offended when you find out that they lied to you, over and over? You need higher standards Boges.

Sanctions have been working against Iran, because they slow Iran's military buildup and restricts the amount of money that they have to spend on terrorism abroad. Recruiting, propaganda, tech to communicate covertly, training, brainwashing all cost money. You just called anyone who disagrees with you a Trumpophant in your last post and now you're whining about ad hominem attacks? Cry me a river Boges. You're name-calling like a child.

Boges, that cite isn't relevant. You said that Shokin wasn't investigating Burisma. I asked for proof. You cited a link that claims Shokin was fired for a different reason. That's not the same thing, at all. Find me a source that backs your claim, and don't change the direction. It was your claim, you need to back that claim up. Not change the topic.

Of course sanctions work. Are you daft? Go play any military strategy game and try to build an army without resources. Without money. A countries industrial capacity = a country's ability to create a modern army. Period. Places like Iran and Saudi Arabia with minimal industrial capacity buy their weapons elsewhere. If diplomacy worked we wouldn't need to go through hoops to get on an airplane. Are sanctions against NoKo and Korea better than giving them hundreds of billions of dollars and all the tech they need to build nukes? Do you know what Iran would do if they had the military power that the US has? Open a history book.

It was to protect his family. Hunter wasn't just reaping the benefits of his dad's position in Ukraine, he was also doing it with the Communist Bank of China. It was the Trump administration's position that a crime by Biden needed to be investigated. Get your head out of your ass Boges. It was common knowledge for a long time that Joe Biden's position was that he didn't know his son was on the board at Burisma. Here's Joe saying it, rudely, for the 1,000th time, on video: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2019/11/02/joe_biden_on_hunter_i_didnt_know_he_was_on_the_board_of_that_company.html If Joe wasn't on record as saying that he didn't know his son worked for Burisma then why would the photo of Joe, Hunter and Devon Archer been a big deal? It was proof that Joe was lying the whole time, about knowing that Hunter worked at Burisma. The day that photo came out was the day that the whistleblower complaint story went hyperbolic. It was the day when the Dems started circling their wagons like a tornado. There's a huge difference between a father giving his son a job at the company he built, and a father who gets elected to government who allows corporations or countries to bestow riches upon him or his family. There's never a good reason for it. Cite?
