Ted Cruz thought this Fox News conservative is interviewing him and it will be just soft ball questions. Instead he got baited hard into looking like an idiot

Tucker is right. Instead of bombing their nuclear facility, Trump should’ve just given them billions of dollars like Obongo and hope they stop

Ted Cruz might look like an idiot now but humiliating himself defending the jews will no doubt earn him good favor in the future. He probably earned himself a spot as ambassador or defense secretary in Vance's future cabinet with that interview.

you would think that it would be bad optics humiliating yourself like that, but he knows that the general public don't have any influence over his career.

The difference is that Mordor does not have innocent people who would suffer from our actions.
Also, Mordor openly attacked and invaded it's neighbours, instead of in our analogy, the US invading and attacking everyone else.

Aragorn actually did know the approximate size of the hordes of Mordor, as did Gandalf. They both said that the army at Pelinor Fields was but one finger of the vast hosts of Minas Morgul, suggesting that they had an approximate grasp of the full strength of Mordor, and that it was so titanic that any frontal engagement with it would be suicidal.

Your example here is also bad because Aragorn specifically did not want to invade fucking Mordor because it was impossible. They instead defeated it through artifice.

You can't invade countries with nuclear weapons. Even if they cannot hit you with them for lack of range or heavy air defenses, they could just use them on your armies when you came to invade within their own borders.

I don't think Aragorn would say that it's socialist to not want Saruman spying on you.

Is Mordor anything other than military? I thought Sauron only raised an army of orcs there.
Also, ignoring the fact that Mordor was the aggressor, whereas in real life, the US is the aggressor. Cruz is justifying Mordor's position.

shit take.

it is theater but you can catch glimpses of who is doing the directing and the occasional misspoken line indicating what is truly going on

If Aragorn knew the size of the host of Mordor it is likely he had some inkling as to the population. In either case the fact remains that Aragorn would by no means be as woefully ignorant of such information as is being implied in the image, certainly not so much as the questioner, unless the questioner were a particularly learned scholar or an agent of Mordor itself.

The implication that this is comparable to Ted Cruz not knowing Iran's size (even roughly) is cretinous. Ted Cruz has access to the internet, even I knew the population of Iran when that came up in the interview because the first fucking thing I did when I heard we might be going to war with them was check their GDP and population on the internet.

This guy wanted to be president. He wants a war with a country on the other side of the planet, he did not know how many people he was talking about, he likely does not know what language they speak, he just knows that Israel paid him to say "we should blow up Iran."

I don't even disagree with him, but the man is an imbecile.

Access. American journalists are obsessed with it so they wont offend the interviewee. In the UK, no one gives a shit so they'll go out of their way to attack the subject.
