GOP Senator Begs for Gas Money After Championing Trump's War

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

A Republican senator who has been an outspoken supporter of President Donald Trump’s war on Iran is begging donors for gas money as he faces a tough re-election campaign in November’s midterms.

Sen. Dan Sullivan of Alaska has repeatedly voted to allow Trump to continue attacking Iran without congressional approval, claiming Tehran has “been at war with us for almost half a century,” Alaska Public Media reported in March.

He also praised Trump for supposedly “making sure the Iranians don’t get nukes and don’t get ballistic missiles,” despite U.S. intelligence assessment findings that Iran was not developing a nuclear weapon and was at least a decade away from achieving one even if it wanted to.

Now, with the war approaching its fourth month and gas prices soaring nationwide—particularly in Alaska—Sullivan is asking donors to chip in for gas money, Raw Story reported.

Those who have been around Trump say he has plenty of gas.

6. "claiming Tehran has "been at war with us for almost half a century,"

I always love how they leave out the part that the US and UK overthrew their democratically elected government in 1953 and installed the Shah. So, technically, we have been at war for 73 years.

7. "and don't get ballistic missiles"

Iran already has ballistic missiles asshole.

10. Senator Shit-For-Brains...

... is too stupid and too dishonest to realize that we wouldn't even be in this position with regard to Iran if we had told Britain to go pound sand when they asked for help in stealing Iran's oil reserves for themselves. We would have had a steadfast ally in Iran if we hadn't deposed President Mossaddegh and installed "Shah" Reza Palahvi. People should know what we did to deserve their enmity. And Trump is just intensifying that justified resentment with his malice and his lies. Even his buddy, Jeffrey Epstein, called him the worst person he'd ever met.
