In a related speech, President Trump had indicated how much he cares that Congress is the only branch of government that is constitutionally allowed to declare wars.

Last week, the Iranian military shot down an unmanned American surveillance drone worth $220 million dollars over the Persian Gulf, and a few days earlier, several oil tankers have been attacked in the Gulf. In response, President Trump decisively ordered an airstrike against Iranian military targets, then unexpectedly, but just as decisively, aborted the strike a few minutes later (thus also proving that his pro-abortion cred). Here are 10 reasons why Donald Trump called off the airstrike on Iran.
1) He thought that by cancelling the strike at the last minute he will finally lock down that elusive Nobel Peace prize.
2) Trump didn’t want to ruin the relationship with a foreign authoritarian government – what if you need to collude with them later?
3) His bone spurs started acting up.
4) Trump chose to punish Iran in a different way, specifically, by firing off multiple nasty tweets in ALL CAPS at them.
5) Trump changed his mind after he was told that the strike would result in 150 deaths, because Trump is tremendously appreciative of the sanctity of human life, unless it’s a life of some migrant toddler in a border detention camp.
6) Trump decided that it doesn’t make sense to attack Iran now since we’re going to Mars of which Iran is a part of.
7) The one-two combination of the attack order and the subsequent cancellation was only meant to be a clever ruse to test the loyalty of his appointees, by forcing them to praise both Trump’s wisdom in ordering the attack, and Trump’s wisdom in calling it off.
8) Iran isn’t the real enemy. It’s not like they going to try impeach Donald Trump.
9) Trump had previously ordered strikes in Syria and Somalia, and he’s heard something of some “three strikes and you’re out” rule in the Constitution or somewhere.
10) It’s really hard to press the correct button on his secret “countries to attack” keyboard with his tiny hands.

All very likely reasons. And maybe also, he learned that the Ayatollah was good friends with Kim Jong-un, and he didn’t want to upset his pal in NK.

Considering that Trump thinks that the Ayatollah’s name is Khomeini, I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump thinks that Kim Jong un is running China.

Well, when he “pulled out” of the Paris Accord, that didn’t sound manly to me. Neither does “pulling back” unless, of course, it is on John Bolton leash.

These are excellent, X. I can only think of one other possibility. Some aide suggested that the Secretary of State go to Iran and talk them into a treaty promising them to ease sanctions in return for not developing nukes for 10 years. They could call it the “Trump Treaty.” Has a nice ring to it.
LikeLike
That could be it. And then Trump would argue that since it’s a 10 year treaty named after him, he personally needs to stay in the Oval office for another 10 years to oversee it.

I hate to admit that I just heard of this because I was too busy watching the Democrats prove how knowledgeable they are on current events in the debate. D’oh. Also, it had nothing to do with sex, so of course the news didn’t report it.

Here is another possible explanation:
When he heard the number 150 as the potential casualties, he said, “Nah… too small.. I will wait for a crowd that is bigger – or more (h)uge”

For some reason, he’s very touchy about the size of his hands. And been the subject of a very lively debate between Trump and another Republican primary challenger whether Trump’s small hand size indicates his “down there” is small or “there is absolutely no problem down there”.

Wow. Of all the things that could be attributed to this famously-large douche-canoe, you’d think he could brush off the small hands stuff. But you could be right, maybe he’s worried about a different part of his anatomy. I’m not entirely sure why anyone would want to be around any of his anatomy, but life’s weird that way.

He is a very strong and tough leader and very strong leaders do not tolerate others questioning the size of the manhood. So he – in a particularly high point of the 2016 election – actually brought up, unasked, during the presidential debate, the crucially important subject of his dick size.

I wanted to comment on your latest post, February 4, X, but it wouldn’t let me, nor “Like” it either. After thinking about the Iowa reporting problem, I totally approved of your ten assessments. One other possibility, I submit, is that Iowans, desperate to find a new market, may have succeeded in turning ethanol into an alcoholic drink and the precinct leaders are blotto.

I have to apologize for the technical difficulties causing the comment section to unexpectedly get delayed. But it should be out there now, unlike the Iowa’s results. Maybe it really is ethanol, because I definitely did not have any for days.
