If I was Iranian I'd feel like my gov't is perfectly justified pursuing nuclear bomb stuff considering it seems like the USA is hellbent on invasion and the only thing that will stop them is presumably if you have nukes to defend yourself with.

I hope he doesn't go for the nukes. I doubt he will but if he does either a nuclear war starts or we're having a military coup.

really not true, had Biden (or Gore, even) or any non hated, non scandal plagued, well known Democrat ran in the primary, they would have won and it would be business as usual

Just a uniquely garbage candidate in Hillary ran unopposed except for a relative unknown in Sanders who had a huge hill to climb (and had it rigged against him)

Two historically bad candidates broke american politics. I'd even blame it on the DNC more

Based on his approval ratings, Obama would have been elected for a 3rd term had he run. He was very popular, and still is to this day.

Donald Trump got a significantly smaller share of the vote than Mitt Romney. This was not some big groundswell movement, just two awful candidates.
