I'd love to see someone break down all the times Trump has said he's allowed to do ____, Democrats aren't allowed to do ____, other countries aren't allowed to do ____

For a guy who acts like he's above it all, he spends a lot of time complaining to the referees about imaginary rules and exceptions

POTUS apparently has further thoughts on the law of war.

In a brief phone call with NBC News, President Trump declined to provide any update on the status of ongoing negotiations with the Iranians, but he sharply criticized Iran’s call for young people to line up as human shields around power plants.

“Totally illegal,” he said. “They’re not allowed to do that.”

As for what motivated him to post this morning that “a whole civilization will die tonight” — a comment that has drawn backlash from around the world — he would only say: “You’ll have to figure that out.”
