The Americans will be all too aware post Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Americans may be very aware but apparently Donnie has forgotten that along with everything else bar a ballroom.
Also, anybody who would have told Trũmp of the risks or likely outcome has been sacked leaving only those more concerned with their personal careers and thus only telling Trümp what Trűmp wants to hear (ie how brilliant and "right" Trúmp is).

Donnie really does believe that might is right. Take what you want and sod the consequences. Daffodil.

'Go get your own oil!' says Trump as he says 'the hard part is done'published at 12:26​

US President Donald Trump says countries "like the United Kingdom" who can't get jet fuel because of the restrictions around the Strait of Hormuz should “build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT."
In a post on Truth Social, he writes countries will “have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us," addressing countries "which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran".
"Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done," the post adds, ending with “Go get your own oil!”

Is he picking on the UK because of the 'special relationship'? Strikes me the UK has been a lot more cooperative than France and Spain.

You think there is a plan?

Not as you or I would recognise, but, no doubt Donald has the bigliest and bestest plan ever devised. 😂

It’s because Starmer had told him in private to get lost as he has no plan and NATO doesn’t work like that.
I have no doubt that Trump is absolutely amazed that someone has said no to him. It’s just that Trump has zero class , so has to go public.
I can’t wait for the political memoirs in 5 years. Saying what they really thought.

I think UK media pick out his UK rantings to report on, and also perpetuate the myth of the ‘special relationship’.
He is not really particular on who upsets him and is not happy with France and Italy today either.

I actually find it reassuring when he singles out the UK as it suggests our Government are showing a bit of backbone instead of being a Blair style poodle.
Trouble is he was doing the same when Starmer was puppy-dogging him. Remember his continually going on about the London Mayor, Scottish wind-farms, "Civilisational Erasure", etc.
