PeeWee Goebbels: Trump Is The Most Brilliant Military Strategist Ever!

Trump's minion was back at it again, trying to put some lipstick on this giant pig his idiot boss has inflicted all of us in the United States and the rest of the world, for that matter, with his attack on Iran.

Miller made an appearance on Fox's The Ingraham Angle. After first pushing back against Ingraham, asking why securing the Strait of Hormuz was taking so long, given the progress Miller and others keep claiming is happening, Miller insisted that the operation has moved remarkably fast compared to historical norms.

After showing a clip of NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte stating that allies universally agree the Strait of Hormuz must reopen, and that NATO members are actively coordinating on how to achieve that, Ingraham tried to pin Miller down on which members those were, since none have said publicly that they'd help.

Miller then launched into another one of his diatribes, insisting that this has been one of the greatest military victories EVER!!! and pretending Trump is some genius military strategist.

INGRAHAM: Obviously, that's Rutte. Have any NATO members told you that they're going to help? Because so far, France, Germany, UK have been adamant that this is not their problem.

Three-Time 'Idiot' Trump Voter Now Thinks He's A 'Pile Of Sh*t'

On Tuesday, NBC's Meet the Press NOW ran a segment on reactions to increasing fuel costs, during which political reporter Jonathan Allen interviewed Amanda Robbins, a Pennsylvania local, at a Millersburg gas station, and let's just say that the three-time Trump voter is no longer pleased with how things are going with Donald J. Trump at the helm.

Are Trump supporters coming out of the fog? Signs point to yes, but there is still a good faction of his base that seems incapable of letting go of their orange pissdaddy, who, for some strange reason, has a hold on his cult-like following.

"Let's take a listen to one more woman whom we spoke with," Allen said. "If you could say something to President Trump and he was going to hear you right now, what would it be?"

"You're a worthless pile of shit," she said.

"And you voted for him how many times?" Allen asked.

"Three times," Ms. Robbins replied. "That was my bad. Apparently, I'm an idiot."

Well, yeah, she has a point. She was repeatedly warned. As for the three others Allen interviewed, they're sticking by their guy. The other Trump supporters Allen interviewed expressed a willingness to absorb higher pump prices, citing either their backing of the war effort or their confidence in Trump as their reasons.
