Iran decided to fire bullets yesterday in the Strait of Hormuz — A Total Violation of our Ceasefire Agreement! Many of them were aimed at a French Ship, and a Freighter from the United Kingdom. That wasn’t nice, was it? My Representatives are going to Islamabad, Pakistan — They will be there tomorrow evening, for Negotiations. Iran recently announced that they were closing the Strait, which is strange, because our BLOCKADE has already closed it. They’re helping us without knowing, and they are the ones that lose with the closed passage, $500 Million Dollars a day! The United States loses nothing. In fact, many Ships are headed, right now, to the U.S., Texas, Louisiana, and Alaska, to load up, compliments of the IRGC, always wanting to be “the tough guy!” We’re offering a very fair and reasonable DEAL, and I hope they take it because, if they don’t, the United States is going to knock out every single Power Plant, and every single Bridge, in Iran. NO MORE MR. NICE GUY! They’ll come down fast, they’ll come down easy and, if they don’t take the DEAL, it will be my Honor to do what has to be done, which should have been done to Iran, by other Presidents, for the last 47 years. IT’S TIME FOR THE IRAN KILLING MACHINE TO END! President DONALD J. TRUMP

will Trump cite in this week in"America Reads the Bible" ?

As posted on earlier threads here,he is supposed to be a guest speaker.

Nothing like a Sunday morning to threaten annihalation.

"In the beginning, there was Donald the Almighty. I'm still here, and I will endure in your memory forever. Blessed be my Holy Name."

Or something like that.

Special editions available for a "love" donation of a million bucks each..personally signed in 14k gold ink.

... Trump thinks of this fiasco as nothing more than video game, and his psychotic threats are a path to level 10 or something.
Other people are just annoying abstractions to him; they're not real.

opportunity to establish their short positions for Monday morning didn’t it?? All that is needed is something to upset the fragile balance in the MidEast.

is really about stock market manipulation, the rich want to take everything, they can't countenance even the thought of anyone else having a decent life.

... There Will Be Blood, in which Daniel Day Lewis' character says, "I have a competition in me. I want no one else to succeed. I hate most people."
I've known people who unapologetically reflect that exact sentiment. Definitely not people you want to shake hands with before you've had the shots.

... the orcs and goblins of ICE are just getting warmed up. They've already dropped the transparent pretense of rounding up thieves and rapists; now they've started arresting journalists, bystanders, and people on their way to work that inadvertently get behind one of their vehicles. They observe no laws and violently reject any restriction on their tactics. Soon, jaywalking will be a capital offense punishable by summary execution. They have every intention of ignoring laws against armed intimidation of voters at the polls.
As long as the Orange Menace is still shitting all over the Oval Office, and his corrupt minions defile the DoJ, ICE's crimes will continue to escalate. It's gonna get worse before it gets better. If it EVER gets better.

Kind of like Toucan Sam, but for money. It always knows.

Stable international agreements, take diplomacy and time. It’s tedious and technical. Trump thinks a deal is when he can cheat and bully people. He’s never been a good businessman and he certainly not a good diplomat. Anybody can blow stuff up.

Nobody in their right mind trusts Trump. He has NEVER been trustworthy. And he is an infant, he wants what he wants and he wants it NOW. But what he wants can change so fast that nobody can keep up with trying to please him; something his cabinet, aids, and GOP pols on the Hill just haven't learned.

He is insane and there is no dealing with him. Iranian leadership knows this. GOP pols on the Hill need to accept and address the fact and remove him from office, perhaps put him on trial or have him committed.

Of this mess.

Or Obama. Or, hell, even Clinton or Roosevelt. But TT (Toddler Trump--stole it from you) will never accept responsibility for any damn thing.

There's money to be made as the stock market moves up and down according to Trump's social media.posts on the war.

There are political opportunities to use during a war, e.g. threats to strip more civil liberties in the name of national security.

In the beginning, I think that he expected a quick win via threats and bombs. Always an opportunist, when he did not get a quick victory in Iran, he switched to making money from the war and threatening opponents of it.

then so is “I’m a pathological lying delusional dementia brain megalomaniac Hitler wannabe psychotic clown..and I hate brown people from shit hole countries so be afraid/be very afraid!’ …now that might work..

And that goes for both the MAGA morons on the right AND those on the left that thought letting this madman control our country again would somehow help innocent civilians in the Middle East.

Empathy is verboten.

"But Harris supported Israel." "Harris took AIPAC money." "The dems are pro-Israel." Well, the dems may take AIPAC campaign money, but they never took orders from Netanyahu.

We desperately need to get big money out of our electoral process. We need publicly funded elections & scaled back campaign seasons. People are sick of the constant campaigning. How do reps, who have two year terms, get any work done, when their main focus is raising money to campaign for their next election?

Also, make stock trading illegal while in office, unless in a blind trust. Take away the grifting potential and the greedbags will not be interested in running for public office. Also, they must pass a civics test before they are able to run for federal office. They have to hit the ground running and most Republicans have no clue how our government works.

No public money whatsoever if you are uber wealthy.

how much of a pay package they can accept, right out of the gate. And more terms in congress to get the reitrement benefits. The whole system needs to be updated & revamped. Money does not equal speech & it's corrupted the entire system.

Lining their pockets,and feathering their nests while picking us clean.

and I cannot forgive these fucking traitors, they utterly DISGRACED America

It’s basically what Russia has done in Ukraine.

We could curb profits while the war goes on. I believe that happened during WWII. If the greedy jokers in the MIC can't make money selling war toys, then war is not nearly as much fun as it should be.

The Iranians can have their citizens line the bridges and power plants so that the world can watch you commit the biggest war crime in human existence to be recorded on camera. Dumbass!

Can we have women in charge for the next 250 years ?

Trump's an expert in this kind of stuff, so he obviously knows what he's talking about.

“Every power plant and every bridge is married, not a single one at all. By the way, release the Epstein files.”

Except for all the others, even ones like Buchanan, Fillmore, Harding, etc.

Neither the USA nor Russia are members of the International Criminal Court, but many of our allies (or former allies) are.

Would they have the cojones to arrest Trump if he sets foot in their country?

are we doomed or will it be in time if we clip his wings after the mid-terms?

Serious question. We all know the guy is totally nuts and will blow up everything to spite the world against him. He has surrounded himself with equally insane sycophants. Who will stop him?

Than we know. He will still have essentially unfettered power and unless someone reins him in, who knows what he will do.

place among the non-MAGA powers that be to circumvent the madness. Don't take this lightly is an understatement.

Republicans are gonna pay a HUGE price for their cowardice and greed.

Nobody in their right mind seriously thinks they can negotiate with that kind of sociopath. No point in trying.

Just wondering how may support him, and how many tell him he's nuts.

I think because they know their Biden whataboutism wore thin some time ago

Food for thought when he turns his sights on domestic targets, like Detroit, Philadelphia, Washington…

up from underground. How is bombing power plants not a war crime?

Monster.

Policing the World bs.
