    It’s not sound logic, but everyone needs to understand how a narcissist thinks these days.

    They end conflicts based on when they think they have an advantage. Prior goals aren’t important just being able to declare victory.

    If/when the other side doesn’t stop when you tell them to, the narcissist acts and truly believes a new conflict has just started, and they are now legitimately the victim and not an aggressor.

    In their heads, that’s reality.

    So yeah, it fucking sucks and shouldn’t be like this.

    But a narcissist is in charge of America’s military, and that’s how he thinks. And if no one stops him it’s going to get worse.

    No matter what happens in Iran, he’s going to twist it as justification to push further somewhere else. Either because he gets what he wants, or he doesn’t and feels he needs to save face by looking strong somewhere else.

    For as long as he’s in office he’ll keep doing this to other countries that have natural resources
