The anti-Israel push may have changed Trump’s mind on Ukraine

The same people who claimed they were stopping us from being dragged into a war in Iran may have ironically dragged us into a war in Ukraine.

Anyone remember WW3? Before President Trump took out Iran’s nuclear program, various ‘experts’ and ‘influencers’ frenziedly warned us that a world war was coming and millions of Americans would die if we attacked Iran.

Some, like Tucker Carlson (who seems to spend half his time in the Gulf and seems to have offered flattering interviews to every Muslim tyrant in the region), were obvious agents of foreign influence, others may have been sincere in their hysteria, but the combined effect made the movement look like clowns, especially once they were proven wrong.

Most refused to admit they were wrong, but have gone on claiming that if it wasn’t for their bedwetting, we’d all be dead.

Whoever won the debate on social media is hard to say, but we all know who won the debate in real life. Trump acted and shrugged off the antics.

But, interestingly, there are signs he’s pivoting on Ukraine.

While that may be in part hardball negotiating politics due to Putin’s refusal to make a deal, it seems to have ramped up after the same people who had vocally argued against U.S. support for Ukraine burned up all their credibility trying to stop a U.S. strike on Iran’s nukes.

I’ve been a longtime critic of the U.S. backing for Ukraine under Biden, and it’s unfortunate that a legitimate position was discredited by dubious figures and even more dubious experts who spent a week telling us that a third of of Tel Aviv had been destroyed and Russia and China would bomb us if we hit Iran.

Many of them showed they were ignorant, idiots or agents of foreign influence.

President Trump was paying attention. This is why it’s important to keep a movement, a faction or a trend ‘clean’.

The same people who claimed they were stopping us from being dragged into a war in Iran may have ironically dragged us into a war in Ukraine.
