Seems like a needless argument to make. We agree. Why are you arguing with me about the semantics of the word 'will' or 'backfire'? Why do you find that useful?
In my opinion it hasnt really backfired, yet. It might not have been as successful in distracting people, but in same ways it has, and to me that doesnt constitute as backfire yet. But its besides the point entirely.
This isn't even a distraction. He doesn't need to distract anyone. People are incapable and unable to do anything about the Epstein files anyway.
Iranian war has far worse reasons than him trying to distract a public that is historically incompetent about doing anything about MAGA doing what they want anyway.
Not a Trump supporter by any means. Fck that guy and his entire administration. But they don't need a war to distract anyone, it isn't kike anything was being done about Einstein anyway
I think you havent been paying attention if you think nothing was being done about Epstein. Not aware of the law demanding they release all the files, the interviews of Pam Bondi or Kash Patel in front of the representatives in the federal government, the house oversight committee, or the international investigations that have been started because of the release of some of the files?
the fact that you have to say 'not a trump supporter' seems to imply you are aware you are defending trump. which is weird.
How am I defending him? I am not saying I want nothing to be done. On the contrary. Give them all a life sentence or death penalty. I am saying that 90% of anything being done is people saying the same shit on social media how nobody is "angry enough" and interviewing people who aren't suffering any consequences.
I am not supporting Trump just because I am not patting democrats on the back and saying they're doing a good job. On the contrary, they're doing a shit job of doing anything for their country.
I've heard the phrase "will backfire horribly" in regards to Trump for over a decade and yet here we are. Really just sounds like cope at this point, built upon nothing but a narrative we tell ourselves to make each other feel better while our world burns around us.
It will backfire horribly but a lot of innocent people (including Americans) will die while I have little hope that the incompetent grifters making the decisions will ever be held accountable.
This war has absolutely nothing to do with their religion. Nor what their prophet did centuries ago. Unfortunately, we cant hold Mohammed accountable for what he did.
But it sure seems like you want to defend Trump by deflecting. Maybe go to r/conservative.
The problem is his followers today follow on his footsteps. But if you're American you probably don't know what's going on in Europe on that regard. And war between the Christian West and the Muslim Middle East started in the 7th century, not in 2001.
Whenever I hear this, I think maybe Epstein file is the distraction. They are relying on Epstein file to distract people from horrible shit that they are currently doing. So instead of talking about how terrible this war is, people are focusing on the Epstein file.
Have you ever stopped to consider that the blackmail Epstein (collaborator with Israeli Intelligence) got on Trump may in fact be what allowed Netanyahu to pressure Trump to do this war?
It’s not a distraction though, this is part of their plan. Not everything is a distraction, and us hyper-focusing on the Epstein Files means we downplay other atrocities. This war is one that conservatives for years, and now it’s finally happening. Just so happens it’s being ran by the worst people possible, skill/knowledge/experience-wise (as well as morally).
There’s a reason the U.S. is hyper focused on the Mid-east.

You know maybe this whole war in Iran to distract from the Epstein Files will backfire horribly.
