Trump is sending more ground troops to Iran in an escalation of hostilities. Why must every Republican president start a war in the Middle East? There's no easy way out of violent entanglements, and diplomacy should have been his first and foremost tactic. Instead he backed us out of a treaty that had been carefully negotiated by smarter people than him THAT WAS WORKING, and has plunged us into an endless morass of death and violence. The American taxpayers DO NOT want this war. He is clearly suffering from dementia and he wasn't a great strategic thinker to begin with. Hegseth is a fundamentalist Christian warmonger who is actively and openly trying to bring about a biblical Armageddon. Neither of them should be involved in running a war in the Middle East as their judgment is irredeemably compromised. Trump and Hegseth must be removed from their positions and someone more qualified put in charge of this war. Congress must act now.
