Trump's popularity at its lowest, his "birthday parade" was a failure, and now suddenly a surprise attack on Iran. Interesting. (infosec.pub)

I find it odd that he thought attacking Iran was "face saving", like is warmongering something respectable?

Sadly, yes.

It worked really well for Dubya and Obama, and in Trump's first term. I vividly remember Fareed Zakaria gushing over Trump after he ordered the MOAB dropped on Afghanistan. Americans fucking love war.
