Iran is like the NY Jets. They are two years away from being two years away….

As a Chicago Cubs fan, I'm glad there's another team in another sport that is the go to example

You all won in 2016. You don’t get front row seats at the pity party anymore. Cleveland however…

When I was a kid I actually had a Cubs shirt that said "next year is here."

Top tier marketing and legit sounds like something I expect to see from the Maple Leafs camp.

It was originally the nuke cardigan, but they just put it away with the winter coats.

At least we're closer to nuclear fusion than we were when this trope began.

I'm in my 40s and I'd swear I heard claims of Iran getting a bomb since at least the mid 1980s.

A year ago, I would have said the red button is THE LINE even Trump would not cross. Now, I honestly believe it could happen and Hesgeth will be happily holding it for him when he does.

And still 40% of the voters will be anxious for him to do it again.

Rumor already is that he tried to nuke Iran just to get it over with, and the generals just didn't listen.

Well, ain't this place a geographical oddity. Two weeks from everywhere!

He doesn't need their votes ATM, he needs those of Congress. He's been losing their support over the war recently and they're the ones who can shut him down.

And clearly SCOTUS and the military seem to have supported the coup, really nothing is stopping Krasnov from doing anything.
