On a few different web sites I mentioned if Trump attacks Iran I will not vote for him again. The reaction is the same...I get called a liberal and a leftist. In reality I am far to the right of the Republican party. The reason I am against attacking Iran isn't because I'm some peaceful hippie type..hell no. The reason is I am consumed with hatred towards Iran's arch rival Saudi Arabia. I notice the people calling me a leftist don't even know the difference the Sunnis and the Shiites. To them all Muslims are the same. It saddens me to realize how ignorant many of my fellow Trump voters are. I thought they liked Trump because he wasn't establishment. Yet they uncritically take the establishments view that Iran is the enemy.

We dont need to go to war no matter what party you happen to be. Do people really think another war will solve anything. Bolton is wringing his hands over this.

Well, if social media is any indication, the simpleton conservatives in my neighborhood not only think that if you disagree with Trump, you're a leftist, it also means you "hate 'Murica".

Everybody has a pivotal issue... If you are willing to abandon all issues over Iran, that's your choice but it lacks any logic and sane reasoning.... Maybe you like higher taxes, illegal immigration, constantly abused social programs, etc etc... I think all those issues are important and could care less about Iran.... Not a fan of the Ayatollah either....

I don't like those liberal things. I wouldn't vote Democrat. I would throw away my vote on a third party or not vote at all. In all honesty it doesn't matter if I vote or not because Dems will win my state for sure.

It's about time that Trump supporters start looking at everything he has done.

Many thing comes out. Trump is a liar. Trump does not believe in agreements (contract or treaty). Trump is killing our countries reputation around the world. Trump does not believe in the rule of law.

I won't be voting for Trump regardless, but anyone pushing this war with Iran schtick with a series of incredibly flimsy claims will not be getting my vote either.

FYI- Really dumb people on the far left and far right have no ability to intelligently debate or to see shades of grey. Thus the minute you confuse them, they whip out a "lib or con" accusation.

I disagree with Trump all the time, and I am not considered a Leftist. I think some of his tweets are silly, immature, an un-Presidential. I also disagree with him on going along with the out of control spending of Congress. He signed it. He owns it! Most of the other stuff I agree with.

Everything that has happened, screams Israel, not Iran.
We are getting told Iran(even the drone strike) but Iran is denying it to their people.
