Wag the Dog

You start the fight, you must go it alone. I hated when a fight would start and their buddy would jump in to save their ass.
I use to know a guy like that. Little guy who thought he was ten feet tall after a few drinks. He’d then try to drag others into it. I was able to talk reason to the objects of his ire a couple times. Then I quit hanging out him. Similar might happen in this case. The adults in the world will reason with Iran and then stop hanging out with America.
 
Does anyone have any problems with this statement?

"If the war were to be extended, it wouldn't really disrupt the US economy very much at all. It would hurt consumers, and we'd have to think about what we'd have to do about that, but that's really the last of our concerns right now."
-- Kevin Hassett, Director of Trump's National Economic Council

"...it would hurt consumers ... but that's really the last of our concerns right now."

“When the price of oil goes up we make more money!” - t. But of course it’s consumers paying. Consumers, average Americans, aren’t any part of the “we” of which t speaks of making more money. We the People, aren’t apart of the America Trump wants to make great again, that fact is and has been obvious since day one. But suckers still support him.
