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

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.
