I knew that, but it’s just wild to me that of all the things going on in the US and all of the things to criticize Trump over, Schumer and his party decide instigating shit with a country who hasn’t done anything to the US would be a productive use of their time and resources.
The point is to continually saber-rattle so that the ‘defense’ industry always has justification for funding and therefore will fund his campaign and back him in DC.

Never underestimate the amount of influence they have.

Don’t you know that the average voter is chomping at the bit to send their kids to die in an invasion of Iran?
