WTF? Trump now says it would be "Unfair for Iran not to have ballistic missiles."

I’m old enough to remember when Trump criticized Obama’s agreement with Iran for not being tough enough on Iran’s ballistic missile program.

The dementia is strong in this one…

1. Iran has shown itself to be a "strongman"

So, now, they are similar to Orban and Putin … he will just act like they are his besties

2. Yep..................

Bibi did not get want he wanted and the region really have not changed for the better.

Lebanon is still the target, and Gaza will become a resort.

Now, maybe Bibi will refuse shithole's bid in the resort discussion.

3. Self rationalization and bidding

I can’t be wrong so that’s what I thought the whole time.

4. Trump is in full withdrawal. Someone in his inner circle finally got to him.

He seems backtracking, and fast these days.

5. TACO: He makes it up as he goes along.

6. But he's RIGHT!!! Hell, it *might* even be "unfair" to prevent them from having nuclear weapons---

as a self-defense deterrent against out-of-control imperialistic governments
like the current leadership of the United States!

North Korea has atomic bombs, and was named by George W. Bush
as being part of "the axis of evil" back during his administration---
but we don't see anyone beating up on them, do we??

Even nations which we might consider to be "evil" are entitled to
a credible self-defense...

and Trump has just given a great demonstration of why they might need certain weapons
for the purpose of deterrent for self-defense reasons!




But yes, his statement is 180 degrees opposed to some of his previous statements---
which by now is merely "same completely different shit, different day"

7. Exactly. Especially since Iran and six nations spent two years to come to an agreement limiting enrichment of uranium..

…and a system of verification. Trump tore up that deal. While on the middle of negotiating a new deal, he launched a decapitation strike on the regime, killing the 90 year-old Ayatollah.

8. That was one of his biggest criticisms of tghe previous deal

That the The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) didn't address Iran's ballistic missile capability was one of the main reasons Trump tore the deal up.

He's been saying for almost a decade now that the deal he got would get rid of Iran's missiles.
