They can let their people starve, and all they have to do to win the war is just outlast us.

And so we've seen this before when Donald Rumsfeld went on TV and told us that we were going to be going to Iraq for two days, and then it was two weeks, and then it was two months.

And Rumsfeld went out there, and it's the exact same thing now.

They're telling us two days, then two weeks, then two months, then it's two years, and then it's 20 years.

And...

So having said all that, I'm praying and hoping for the best, and I do think President Trump is a wonderful commander-in-chief and a great leader, and I do think it's preposterous that Netanyahu can just walk in and tell President Trump to go do something and he would do it.

Trump is famous for bringing in a lot of different opinions, letting people duke it out, and then making a decision.

So if there is an off-ramp at this point, I would love to see it, but I don't see how there is an off-ramp.

I think that now is a good time to buy Raytheon or Palantir stuff.

Timcast IRL

Yeah, they got nothing but time.

No.

So, like, Earth is... 43 billion.

I was at a meeting in the Pentagon recently, and this marijuana thing came up because they were actually talking about the context of how Trump has been talking about how he wants more shipmaking in the United States.

Timcast IRL

But to build ships, there's not a labor force here in the United States, and even to build out the ports to have to do it.

Timcast IRL

They were struggling with it, and really, it came up to me, the biggest problem was marijuana possession or use.

Timcast IRL

When you become a contractor for the Department of War, even if it's just to build this facility or to enlist, you have to say that you've never smoked marijuana before.

And so that takes out almost all of the workers that you would have to do some construction jobs like this.

And so there was really no way to proceed with building these huge new bases and things Trump wants to do without removing that waiver.

Timcast IRL

I think peyote's big in Iran.

Timcast IRL

Yeah, so that could be an incentive for some folks.
