President Trump's legacy hangs in the balance

Whether he'll admit it or not, President Trump's legacy hangs in the balance over Iran. If President Trump continues returning to the negotiating table with Iran, his ENTIRE LEGACY will be that of a failed presidency. President Trump will be known for letting Iran get nuclear weapons. If President Trump wants his legacy to be that of a game=changing president, then he needs to finish Iran's nuclear program forever, then he needs to eliminate Iran's theocrats, the IRGC and the Basij. In other words, eliminate the theocrats and the people that protect the theocrats.

Matthew Continetti lays things out by writing "President Trump has a little over two years left in office. What kind of world will he leave to his successor? Will it be a world where the Islamic Republic of Iran can reconstitute its nuclear program and threaten the U.S. and its allies with missiles and terrorism? Or a world where the Iranian regime no longer possesses nuclear material and is about to collapse? The answer will define Mr. Trump’s legacy."

I agree with Continetti's opinion with a slight modification. Elininating the regime shouldn't take 2 years. Further, elimination of the regime is THE ONLY OPTION! If there's a single theocrat left, a single IRGC member left or a single Basij member left, then the regime will rebuild itself. That can't happen. If that requires going full Truman on Tehran, then that's what President Trump must do.

The repercussions of Mr. Trump’s decision in February are well-known. Twenty-three dead and 417 wounded U.S. servicemen. Damaged U.S. bases and depleted munitions. Increased gasoline and diesel prices for global consumers. Strained relations with U.S. allies and partners in the Middle East and beyond. The blowback has been political as well. Vice President JD Vance says the Iran war is the reason Republicans lost so badly on Tuesday.
First, Vice President J.D. Vance is great in debates against Tim Walz but he's a policy lightweight. His political career should be finished. This is what a back-stabbing VP looks like:

Being a back-stabbing VP is terrible but stabbing Israel is 100X worse:

Vance just showed GOP presidential candidates the fast-track to losing.

President Trump MUST finish Iran's theocrats. The majority of American voters aren't opposed to fighting Iran. They're opposed to fighting Iran without a plan to defeat Iran once-and-for-all.

Kendall Quall's big mistake

Image
A loyal reader of this blog just sent me a screenshot touting Kendall Qualls. The screenshot is short on truth. What it lacks in truth, it makes up for in fiction. Here's Kendall's fiction: Kendall Qualls should be ashamed for spewing this BS. First, Qualls knows better than this. Jeff Johnson and Lisa Demuth have both confirmed that they're abiding by the Convention's endorsement. This appears to be Qualls attempting to be something he isn't. While I'm not disputing whether Mr. Qualls will abide by the endorsement, I'm calling BS that he's THE ONLY GOP CANDIDATE who will abide by the endorsement. This brings into question whether Mr. Qualls is willing to say anything to win. We don't need another candidate who'll put together fiction to win. We've had too many candidates who fit that description throughout the years. Next, we need people who fit J.C. Watts' description of character. Watts said that "the definition of character is d...

Minnesota loses another major business opportunity

Image
If I wsa advising Lisa Demuth's campaign, one of the first things I'd do at Friday night's debate is highlight how "a Minnesota-based company belonging to the Indian conglomerate Essar Group" is building "a major steel plant" in "southeast Iowa's Lee County." According to this Iowa Public Radio article , "President Donald Trump on Monday announced an $18 billion investment in a fully integrated American steel system, including a major steel plant coming to southeast Iowa's Lee County. The $15 billion plant will be built by Mesabi Metallics, a Minnesota-based company belonging to the Indian conglomerate Essar Group. The other $3 billion will help complete Mesabi’s new mine in Minnesota’s Iron Range, which will supply iron ore to the Iowa steel plant. Gov. Tim Walz insists that Minnesota is one of the best places to build a business or raise a family. This isn't Minnesota's initial embarrassment. In Sept, 2025, KARE11 repor...
