How hard do you reckon he jerked himself off after writing all that?

    Has there been any confirmation of this cease fire from any more reputable source?

    I realize that's a low bar.

    Wait

    Did he just admit in writing that he ordered, started, and finished a war?

    Like a president can order troops in a conflict but never impeachable because it's not war and they never reach the point of "war"

    He has stated it was a war

    Yeah seems like the Iranian state media is saying that it’s a lie too. What a fucking idiot man. What the fuck was the plan here? To just lie a ceasefire into existence?

    Its about manifesting peace. It's an advanced form of America's "Vibe Diplomacy".

    If you repeat a lie enough times, eventually you start to believe it. Others might also start believing it. Get enough people fully wrapped up in your lies and now you have a cult. Your cult followers will happily swallow any lie you tell them and defend it, often to the point of torture and death. This is pretty much where we are with MAGA, it's a cult of personality and it's followers will happily slurp up anything which dribbles out of Trump.

    I'm curious to see if the cult outlives its original prophet. Once Trump kicks it, does the cult undergo a transition to a full blown religion? Or, does it fizzle out without it's original charismatic leader?

    This is one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

    I’m glad they get to finish off their missions. It must be incredibly frustrating to have a bombing mission and be told to come home because there’s a ceasefire now.

    I guess when something is completely made up the timing doesn’t really matter.

    We're living in a post-truth world. We really haven't begun to process what that actually means. The president is so confident in his abilities to lie to and propagandize his base, that he feels he can invent entire cease fire agreements from whole cloth. Just claim that an agreement has been reached. Then, when Iran proceeds to ignore the imaginary agreement, accuse them of breaking the cease fire, and use that to justify further attacks against Iran.

    It really is striking how different the lie campaign is with Iran vs the lead up to Iraq. With Iraq, the traditional media was still powerful and legitimate enough that the Bush administration felt an elaborate prewar propaganda campaign was needed. They held numerous hearings in front of Congress, speeches in front of the UN, etc. It took months of propaganda before the Bush admin thought they were ready to launch the war. It was all ultimately a lie campaign, but the fact that they felt the need to do it is telling.

    Now? No such campaign needed. Just launch a war, lie through your teeth, and rely on individual social media bubbles to convince the rubes. The effectiveness of propaganda has increased manyfold over the last two decades. They don't even feel the need to concoct convincing lies anymore.

    I feel like if his dick worked he would give himself a boner every time he signs his name with the title PotUS underneath.

    Are they taking turns? In 6 hours, Israel will stop for 12 hours, and then Iran will stop for 12 hours? And everyone is allowed to just continue their in-progress missions?

    Dudes fighting hard to slap his nicknames on shit. Fuckin little 4th grader acting like he's in charge of the playground. Go back to striving for control of failed businesses.
