    In fairness I don't think he cares if he loses to Iran as long as people forget about the Epstein files

    Even Trump admitted he can't stand the sight of blood. Can't imagine him under an arrow-laden shield laughing. He'd be the one looking up remarking that the sun is going dark.

    Hmm... not really.

    I mean sure Trump trying to align himself with this type of machismo is as pathetic as it always is.

    ... and yes the 300 spartans died while the persians did not die, so they were victorious in that sense.

    However, the movie does try to push the narrative that those 300 spartans won an important victory because their death united the armies of the city states of greece to defend against the oncoming persian army.

    They would have done a better job if they also showed the thousands of Helots, Thebians and Thespians that fought there as well.

    Maybe even the Athenian victory over the president fleet at salamis.

    Sure, but have you considered that he's a very stupid man who only has to convince a country full of people even dumber than him?

    Things that happen if you slept through school. Assuming they still teach real history in school in the US.

    I imagine trying to squeeze trump into a plate carrier would be like trying to squeeze 10lbs of shit into a 5lb sack
