Embarrassment

It’s not a surprise that nothing has been resolved in the matter of our invasion of Iran. Trump still talks about a deal being in the works. Always a “deal” in the works. Everything is the art of the deal, as if this is the only transactional method worth considering, even as he apparently has never really mastered it.

There are always consequences to consider. Ramifications. Unforeseen—or maybe totally foreseen—outcomes. Just the way they drew it up.

But nothing good. Nothing that brings relief or hope or optimism. Just more ineptitude, subterfuge, darkness, self-involved scheming. Ugliness.
