17. Bloomberg?

And Donnie can't cancel US elections. He may want to, sure, but that ain't happening. Period. Full stop. Air strikes can only go on for so long with limited results anyway, and will be over loooong before the Nov. elections. And no, we're not invading Iran. That would take weeks to months of planning and the largest mobilization of US forces since Desert Storm. Perhaps even larger. That ain't happening.

In my mind, this is Donnie flailing around, doing stupid, cowboy shit in an effort to escape Epstein, a flagging economy, and poll numbers not seen since Tricky Dick took his last ride on Marine One.
