NEW: Regime change has occurred in Iran. Or it hasn’t. It is a goal of the war. Except it isn’t. Trump brags about having done "regime change" in Iran, but other US officials are doubtful. It's personnel change — Iran remains theocratic and authoritarian. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/us/politics/trump-regime-change-iran.html?unlocked_article_code=1.XVA.Oxz1.NI4-72BhrUSx

I suggest that every country adversely affected by the price of oil should sue the US government for damages and compensation.

Trump and Hegseth know the regime hasn’t changed. It’s just another lie that gives Trump the option of sliding out from the utter catastrophe his dementia addled choice of violence has unleashed.
Because the Dear Leader is always a winner.

If you look at what Trump’s saying with the understanding he has late stage dementia, then it makes perfect sense

Isn't the former guy's son the new guy? The one who is more of a hardliner than his father? THAT regime change?

If you are completely unable to answer the question, "What are the characteristics of Iran's new regime?" then there has been no regime change.

If you were describing anyone POTUS, based on this and his everyday behavior, you would say he’s erratic and delusional at best.

If he was a casual acquaintance of yours you would think there’s something fundamentally wrong with him.

The decade of sanitizing continues. A reason we’re here.

What are Trump’s actual goals in Iran? He wouldn’t be doing this without an agenda of personal benefit.
