Democrats continue to become unglued in spectacular ways due to their hatred for President Trump and in a disgraceful showing of their true colors, are siding with Iran as tensions continue to mount with the global sponsor of terrorism.
The Trump administration has taken a hard line with the longtime nemesis following eight years of appeasement by former President Barack Obama and now that a major international incident has taken place in the Gulf of Oman, the Islamic state is engaged in provocations that could have serious consequences.
The Pentagon has produced photographic evidence that shows that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard likely played a role in last week’s attacks on two oil tankers which may be a precursor of more such attacks to come on the U.S. and our allies.
In a normally functioning Congress with an honest media, this would be a time of national unity against a rogue state that is dragging the region closer to war but rather than condemn Iran, Democrats led by Speaker Nancy Pelosi are siding with them in another front of their war on Trump.
Those who have long suspected that the 79-year-old has been losing her marbles and drifting into dementia would seem to be vindicated over Pelosi’s CNN appearance on Sunday morning with plagiarist Fareed Zakaria where she babbled about Trump provoking the Iranians.
"The American people have no appetite for a war with Iran," @SpeakerPelosi says, when asked if Washington and Tehran might be heading toward military conflict.

Via Real Clear Politics, “Pelosi: What Is Trump’s Motivation For Provoking Iran?”:
During a sitdown at the Council on Foreign Relations that aired Sunday on CNN, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria that Americans have “no appetite” for conflict with Iran and wondered why President Trump is being “provocative with the Iranians.”
You know, it’s one — countries exercise their leverage. They threaten. They this or that. But there could be mistakes made, and that’s a very dangerous thing.
And if I just might just go back a little bit, what is his motivation? What is their motivation to be provocative with the Iranians? Why did the president turn his back on the Iranian nuclear agreement? What’s the logic except some other issue — that it was negotiated by President Obama? We had so many national security experts, whether they were ambassadors, generals, admirals and all the rest supporting the agreement as well, so it had official, diplomatic, national security, technical, nuclear, et cetera support along the way. So why?
So, then he comes in and does — undoes that and inflames the U.S.-Iran issue. Why? What is the purpose? And then to — I’m not going to accuse anybody of instigating anything, but for not having a policy that would smooth the waters so to speak. So again, I don’t — I think he probably knows there’s no appetite for war among the American people.
WOW! Her demeanor during that interview really shows that Trump had her pegged with his “Nervous Nancy” nickname.
That Pelosi would line up with Iran has made her the subject of much criticism including from Republican Senator Lindsey Graham who blasted her on Twitter.
Speaker Pelosi’s statement that we should not be provocative towards Iran excuses Iran’s hostile acts throughout the region and the world and tries to place the blame on President Trump. https://t.co/YoTrjvMu0K

That ought to earn Senator Graham some serious roasting from hate night late night television hosts like Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert who have regularly subjected him to homophobic “jokes” during their parroting of DNC talking points.
That the most powerful Democrat in Congress would come so close to providing aid and comfort to the enemy pretty much shows who the enemy really is.
