Trump Warns Iran To Accept His Ultimatum Or Face Wrath Of Next Ultimatum

WASHINGTON—Threatening to continue issuing threats if the Islamic Republic did not quickly agree to his demands, President Donald Trump warned Iran on Monday to accept his ultimatum or face the wrath of his next ultimatum.

“Lay down your weapons now or I will have no choice but to ask you to lay down your weapons later,” the commander in chief wrote on Truth Social, adding that the Iranian regime only had two more days to consider his terms before he would give them eight more days to consider his terms.

“Mark my words, this is your last chance before your next last chance. If you do not act immediately, I won’t hesitate to wait even longer. You may think I’m bluffing, but believe me when I say you will feel the full weight of my social media posts.”

At press time, Trump urged Iran not to try his patience because they would find it much, much greater than they expected.

I don't think they care and will deliver much pain right back. The only difference is they're used to pain and we're not. They have him over a barrel.

Frankly, I'm beginning to root for Iran in this illegal war-crimes war---

--- not that I want to see any of our soldiers die, but
I am gratified to see Trump losing and his threats failing......

Iran has more moral strength than Trump

To still support the underlying principles of this country, but to acknowledge that the leaders of this country are probably bigger liars than the leaders of the country we are bombing. And there is no reason for this attack at this time. Most of the people tasked with carrying this out are honestly trying to do what they see as a duty. But the people directing them to do this are the worst people we've ever seen in this country.

in your general direction.

Actually with Trump, that's a bigger threat than one might first think.

This is a sick animal
Stakes for him are high
Price of gas, midterms, bad polls - lots of pressure
He doesn't give a crap about laws
It is all about Trump
He will not go quietly

I hope I'm wrong because a lot of people could die.

Secret service , WH staff, Cabinet, Pentagon and the Republican seditionists in Congress…

Some day, some day. You will be dragged into court and held in a jail cell until your trial. The citizens will be demanding for justice and punishment.
