Hang the mission accomplished banner and move on.
Heck, the bigger nuke in this country is social security will be broke far before 20 yrs and yet Americans and politicians have zero desire to fix that ticking time bomb. Somehow we got so concerned on Iran in 2025 and 2026, that it was literally a non-mentioned issue in 2024. Weird how that worked out.
So economic impact…. What do you think MONTHS of a blockade is going to do for oil and the airlines in this country? (Let alone poorer 2nd and 3rd world countries).
Should I pull the video of Trump saying he’d “ bomb the sh!t out of Iran” in 2024? Or th prior 20+ yrs of talking about Iran and nuclear.
it’s kind of like the “Trump is racist” bit after he hung out with Oprah, Jesse Jackson, Whoopi and all the rest who claim he’s racist now. You all forget he’s been the same guy since the 80’s.
The social security issue has been around since I was atleast a teenager, probably much earlier. Same speech, no change, no solution. Hence one of the reasons us conservatives don’t like wasting money on illegals, Somali fraud and useless homeless spending that produces worse results.

My little app says WTI below $95, markets at all time highs (again), local gas station down $0.10 today and the mall is absolutely packed. Haven’t seen any furlough letters or noticed a/c cancellations yet.
Where do you have WTI today?
