16. Trump was already at the bottom.

There is a Difference between surrender and retreat. The people that live in the US came out on the bottom by losing all international trust, respect, trillions of dollars in munitions, accusations of war crimes, lots of dead US military, and hope. The American people have suffered badly because Trump and his Republican elected officials and toadies lied to their own supporters and the entire American population, left financial scars that will take years to heal - all without anything immediately happening to actually accomplish the original hodge dodge of objectives that were given by the administration for why they chose to spend some much money and get us all cucked and punked at the same time by Iranian clerics who were more than eager to kill off dissenters. Have you heard anything about the water fights over the Colorado River, by any chance? Or just whom the state of Israel thinks came out on top?
