In reply to the discussion: So what part of this Trump v Iran mess do I have wrong? [View all]The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,267 posts)33. Trump has absolutely no idea what he's doing
or even what he wants to do. He pulled out of the JCPOA for no reason other than that Obama negotiated it, and now Iran is a bigger problem than it was without the treaty. Bolton wants a war with Iran because Bolton always wants a war, but Trump can't start a war because Putin won't like it. So Spanky is left with nothing but impotent saber-rattling when Iran moons him.
