When you see someone like Joe Kent magically change their minds about something massive, say, like how dangerous Iran is and how we can trust Trump to know what to do, it makes you wonder if anything they ever said or did was real.
Seems we are seeing a growing list of fakes and frauds crawl out of the woodwork since America took Khamenei (and like 40 other terrorist leaders) out.

September 2024: "Trump used a balance of diplomacy, economic pressure & targeted strikes to contain Iran. The embodiment of peace through strength."October 2024: "
October 7th b/c happened Biden/Harris gave Iran access to over 100 billion.
Trump used diplomacy to build the Abraham accords, cut off Iran’s funding & killed key terrorists.
