1. It's exactly that

They are hoping and praying for bad things to bad things to happen to America so they can score political points. It's pathetic and sad.

5. more war, lower wages, revoke women's rights, more income inequality,

more racial injustice, more prisons, more hate.
did I mention more war?

2. Precisely.

So much so that they might even thnk of trying to arrange it.

But none of those guys would be competent for such a job, so probably not.

3. no doubt about it

They desperately wanted some Americans to die. Probably would have impeached Obama had it gone that way

4. It is called dilpomacy!

They want to start another war no matter the outcome.

6. I heard Rubio invoking St. Reagan this morning and the great job

he did bringing Iranian hostages back. It seems Marco missed the class on the Iran Contra deal.
