Is anyone surprised? He knew from the start US wasn’t going to attack but he nevertheless spent hundreds of thousands of tax dollars so that he could pretend it was real by sending B52 bombers on flight. What a wussy spending all that money to save face rather than improve health care and homelessness.
Tens of billions.
The rescue of the second downed F-15 pilot cost $2 billion alone.
The cost of the 850 Tomahawk missiles fired on Iran was another $2 billion.
The US lost an E-3 worth $500 million, as well as several fighter jets, Reaper drones, transport planes and Black Hawk helicopters.
And that’s just the big “consumables”, the cost of all the other bombs and missiles and the entire logistics pipeline comes on top.
If you add the cost of the closed Strait of Hormuz to the taxpayer, we’re talking hundreds of billions.
I was just talking about the last farce where B52s took flight so that Trump could pretend “he was just about to do what he promised had Pakistan not interfered”
