Cool, crash the price of oil right be fore the election.
Biden is trying to make Harris lose. He hates her for taking his job.

Bibi for sure is. Biden's barely functional.
Bibi is definitely trying to make Harris lose, but I think Biden is still functional enough before 5pm to hold a grudge.
Biden's bitter at people realizing he's too old. Pretty sure he was hoping to go out like feinstein.
Bibi just wants someone he can influence with shiney things rather than needing to pull strings.
What a fantastic democracy/republic we have in the USA 😭
If anyone wants, here's an extremely optimistic 2009 Brookings Institute white paper on how various hostile actions against Iran would play out based off numbers and history.
Chapter 3 analyses a "boots on the ground" invasion (the occupation would require a draft), Chapters 4-6 analyze American and Israeli airstrikes. Neither of them expect Iran to employ masses of drones or close the strait, and they consider ballistic missiles against US assets unlikely.
While they have an extreme western bias, there's no way you can twist the numbers to look good.
This is one psychotic document, jesus

Good luck, I'm defecting as soon as they don't have eyes on me.
It makes it pretty clear how insanely unfeasible a ground invasion of Iran would be even with the most optimistic assumptions.
1.3 million just for the occupation of an 88 million pop country, and that number just comes from other occupations, without taking into consideration the terrain or people or last 50 years of preparation for asymmetrical warfare.
Hey, remember when democrats were saying Trump is crazy for trying to start a war with Iran?
I remember when Democrats gave a fuck about 1 thing. Now they care about 0 things.
Imagine this:
-A democrat who supports genocide.
-A democrat who is championing Trump’s border policy.
That’s where we are now. That’s who democrats are now.
But I’m a ‘tankie’ for pointing that out, I guess.
Have fun explaining your way out of how your supported a candidate who supported genocide and deportations, liberals. ❤️
Yep. And when Kamala wins the popular vote but loses the electoral college because swing stat voters actually don't support GENOCIDE the Dems won't show a degree of self awareness or accept any responsibility, they will just blame Jill Stein voters
I say let them attack iran. It will be the final thrashing before the American empire collapses completely.
I remember when Democrats gave a fuck about 1 thing.
What's that?
I don’t even know, I was just trying to give a little on all that I took. lmfao
stalin shouldn't have stopped at berlin
Iran really should be preemptively striking Israel; I mean Israel is literally drawing up invasion plans.
It’s called deescalation through escalation.
America supports it when Israel does it, that means it’s okay.
Iran, go right ahead. Lebanon, go right ahead. Hamas, go right ahead.
Israel and America have already stated this is a perfectly valid reasoning. The rules of war go both ways.
Again: If America is the world ethics, these actions are perfectly valid. This is what America does.
This is what America does.
Except it isn't. USA does not preemptively attack countries which plan to attack USA, since nobody is doing that. USA wrecks and coups countries because they are either trying to leave the US hegemonic control or the ones that are simply appealing targets for imperialism.
First ever actual preemptive strike.
hey, lets do some buddy-buddy attacking sovereign nations with a GENOCIDAL STATE!
Just the thing to endear your party to the electorate before an election. For Republicans, a war actually does this. Not so sure about Democrats.
Why is still president?
Because the term isn't up yet and taking him down for being unable to perform his duties would be greatly damaging to US optics-based politics.
You're right. But how is it not damaging to US optics-based politics to have a dementia addled old man start a war with Iran?
I don't know, i never seen starting a war being damaging to US politics, it usually gets their numbers up.
Good point. But why does no one care about his pudding brain? I just can't understand. The whole country was like, yeah he's unfit. They after he dropped out no one cares.
Peak idealism in politics. For some reason they are completely unable to think in a cathegory of system, it's all just comic book to them where colorfully dressed people run around and the rest of the grey world is a background that just happen, no agency, no reason, it just is. So despite having a really clear indication, that is completely identical politics of Biden and Harris they think problem is gone because person is gone. This didn't happen in year or 4, that was trained by long decades.
Since i'm in south america, i will grab the popcorn and watch the gringos fighting with brown people for the nth time.
Kamala could invoke 25th, if she doesn't agree with it
if she doesn't agree with it
SHUT UP! Why couldn't you let him have that little bit of naivette?
Seriously though, its a damn fine idea, if only the US and the DNC weren't totally bat-shit on this front. Why does a little thing like reality have to be so un-cooperative?
Biden is as much of a Zionist as Netanyahu
You think?
Vice President Joe Biden meets with Israeli Prime Minister
Joe Biden has been demoted to Vice President ?
According to Fox News, President Obama is still president and so is Traitor Trump. Everyone is president, depending upon who is watching at the moment to stir up one kind of hatred or another.
