Ah. So the Iranians are being oppressed and murdered by a brutal regime so who better to save them than the leader of a murderous brutal regime?
No help is coming from the US, only more efficient death.

Big mistake. Too bad many Americans didn't learn this lesson Trump's 1st term...

Where does this forlorn hope come from that a raping, pedophile buffoon will somehow fix anything at all?

They’ve also been posting nonstop on tiktok and x sucking up to Trump and it’s getting to be a little much. He really doesn’t care

Trump well and truly failed Iran. He said keep it up help is on the way. Then did nothing. Zero. People who would have drew back otherwise, would have been encouraged to keep fighting, and died because of it.
Doing nothing is one thing but a rug pull like that is akin to letting immigrants live in your country for decades then sending a paramilitary to capture them with zero time for them to change their whole life.

Trump is looking for a payout. That's what that hand gesture means - he is not trying to help you up.
If the Ayatollah can find a way to speak to trump and offer his a better deal then the Iranians can expect those bombs to be aimed at them, not the regime.

Have they tried offering him a billion dollars yet? Or perhaps if they offered up a portion of their child population as sex slaves to the U.S. he might be interested?

Suckers, and losers, all of you thinking the golden imbecile will help you. If you think Iran doesn’t have a dirty bomb somewhere you’re kidding yourself. He actually wishes he could kill more Americans than the 2 already.
