Is Trump Deliberately Losing The Iran War For Putin?

FUND THE RESISTANCE Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/PoliticalDrainActionLINKTREE: https://linktr.ee/politicaldrain🚨 This isn't a theory anymore. It's a pattern.And the proof is hiding in plain sight.Every single major decision Trump has made in his Iran war has somehow — impossibly, repeatedly — ended up benefiting Vladimir Putin. CNN found it. NBC found it. The Washington Post found it. Newsweek found it. Bloomberg found it.Nobody is connecting all of it into one place.Until now.Here's the proof.💰 GIFT #1 — TRUMP LIFTED RUSSIA'S SANCTIONS:With Russia actively helping Iran target U.S. troops —Trump temporarily lifted sanctions on Russian oil. Twice.✅ Secretary Scott Bessent confirmed: "Treasury is providing a temporary authorization to permit countries to purchase Russian oil currently stranded at sea"✅ T he move undercut the yearslong push to crimp Putin's ability to wage war in Ukraine — and Moscow is getting a direct financial boost from Trump's Iran war✅ E uropean Council President António Costa said bluntly: "So far there is only one winner in this war — Russia. It gains new resources to finance its war against Ukraine as energy prices rise"✅ O il and gas revenues make up roughly 30% of Russia's entire federal budget — and Trump's war pushed crude prices past $100 per barrel, reversing months of pressure on Moscow's finances✅ Canada, Norway, Germany and six of seven G7 members condemned the sanctions relief as empowering Putin🛰️ GIFT #2 — TRUMP GAVE RUSSIA A PASS FOR HELPING IRAN TARGET AMERICAN TROOPS:Russia gave Iran real-time satellite intelligence to locate and strike U.S. forces. Trump found out.His response? Trump told Fox News host Brian Kilmeade: "I think he might be helping them a bit, yeah. I guess he probably thinks we're helping Ukraine, right? It's like, hey, they do it and we do it."The sitting American president — during a war — excused an adversary for helping a different adversary target American troops. Because Ukraine.Just so we're clear — the incumbent American president, during a war, is both echoing Putin's talking points for him AND excusing an adversary for helping a different adversary target American troops and assets. If there's a precedent for anything like this, nobody is aware of it.🌍 GIFT #4 — TRUMP IS FRACTURING NATO FOR PUTIN:😤 AND THEN TRUMP SAID THIS:When asked how he will know when the war is over —Trump said: "When I feel it. When I feel it in my bones."When asked about his end game — Trump said Putin "was very impressed with what he saw" the U.S. do in Iran.He's mo re focused on impressing Putin than explaining the war to the American people.📌 We are not saying this is intentional. We ARE saying that if it WERE intentional — nothing Trump has done would look any different.Even some of Trump's own supporters are now questioning his plan — and his overall poll numbers are declining as Americans grow concerned about deaths in the conflict, surging oil prices and dropping financial markets.The proof is in every decision he has made. You decide what it means.👇 Is this incompetence — or something worse?

On the other side, bad actors are trying to influence everything we enjoy and consume, while we just want to be entertained. As entertainers, we should be able to escape the daily grind of politics, but unfortunately, we are constantly being pushed with political agendas from the minute we wake up to the minute we go to bed.
