So let’s just discuss the end game, shall we?

He keeps bombing the shit out of Iranian forces with no plan and no diplomacy.

Iran increasingly has to show that it isn’t weak.

We know Iran has the capacity to execute attacks on US soil, and on Americans in the region.
But any attack is going to provoke Trump to “counterpunch,” because his narcissism won’t let him stand for anything that reveals the weak-ass man he actually is.

He will escalate to the ultimate end if he needs to.

The nuclear football is with him at all times.
Unless he is removed, or some sane and rational human in the State Department (plainly not Secretary of the Rapture Pompeo) can convince him he’ll look worse and not better, it’s entire plausible that he will drop the bomb on Iran in the event of a response attack on US soil.
Someone in the @GOP must have a brain.

Russia is telegraphing its displeasure with Trump’s assassination of Soleimani.

It’s counter to their interests to have this proceed.

Russia knows its lost control of their guy, or at least seems to be showing that via Lavrov.
Unless there is an intervention or removal of our madman president, all fucking bets are off.

Someone needs to wake up @senatemajldr.

All of humanity could be on the line (or, since he doesn’t care about humanity, tell him the white guys in DC are likely to get bombed first.)
There is no exit strategy here with what he’s doing and without diplomacy.

Truth-time: he must be stopped. He must. No ifs, ands, buts. He must.
And just for clarity: I am not suggesting that anyone, anywhere, should be engaged in violence. The point is that NO ONE should be, let alone an insane president enabled by sycophants in the @GOP.
