I've read a story today that Trump and Netanyahu are "in agreement about what to do with Iran".
They're going to attack and knock out the nuclear facilities at some point aren't they? I'm surprised Israel hasn't already done so.
I like JD Vance. A far better VP than Mike Pence. I'd be okay with him as President if something happened to Trump. I think he stands a very good chance of succeeding Trump next election. I think some long term strategists are already planning for him to win in 2028 and 2032 and make this a 12 year in power plan. So that's all sorted then until at least 20th January 2037. Of course the best laid plans and all that never quite come to pass as expected.
One thing about JD Vance that is amusing. He was born James Donald but changed his middle name to David. He obviously doesn't like the name Donald very much!
If Trump helps Nutteryahoo with the Iran problem---then that will not sit well with Putin. He cannot possibly appease both Israel and Russia and use Iran as a punch bag to display strength. It wont work.

If there was WW3 at least would all be happy and we know about it. That would be the war to end all wars and nature will take over.

Bizarre he's backed by 3 South African billionaires including Musk.
I venture Vance will be president by 2027.
On what basis do you think Vice-President Vance will assume the responsibilities of President of the United States by 2027?
On the claims that Trump as the beginnings of dementia.
He is so like a good friend of mine who has been diagnosed with dementia at the same age who hopes he 'll kick the bucket before he gets worse.
If he does have dementia I reckon the stress will get to him and I don't think the real life Bond Villain Musk has invested in Vance along with his SA billionaires for no reason.

Given his facility with spoken English I am surprised anyone can follow what he is saying to know whether he is demented or not. It is gibberish.
Palestine not looking good with USA Ambassador appointment to Israel who wants to annex the West Bank and Israeli Ambassador to USA same stating PalestiniaNs should find elsewhere to live.
Harris totally avoided this matter and shouted down protestors and probably wonders whey Of course Harris lost the US Palestinian vote.
Actually I've done the test Trump did and my pal did that supposedly determines Dementia.
It's really an aptitude test..there's no medical test..and I struggled with a word repeat test because I had gone deaf with an infection..had to boot the social worker out of the room. It was the same word test Trump says he passed.

The people who voted for Trump to stick it to the Democrats over Israel/Palestine must be pleased and the Palestinians so grateful to them.

Have you not been paying attention to what Kamala Harris was saying, she took talking gibberish to new heights all of her own in a completely new and mangled style that everyone seems to have begun calling "word salad", not a term I'd heard much before she began having to campaign and answer questions, and this phrase was always directed only at her. She was regularly giving a masterclass in how you can speak for two minutes and actually say nothing meaningful, her own unique kind of gibberish.
I won't deny Trump goes down gibberish alleyways too in his speeches now and then, but Harris at times was embarrassingly inane.

I said nothing about Harris Rich. I just gave an opinion on Trump. That doesn't mean I have a positive opinion of Harris.
This is what I find so frustrating about modern "debate". So often even the obviously intelligent like yourself, just default to zero sum responses. It is so tiresome.
(Not intended rudely Rich just expressing an opinion about modern debate)
