US president Donald Trump has warned Iran that they better get smart soon and sign a non-nuclear deal, in his latest social media post.
Trump shared an image of himself, wearing sunglasses and carrying a gun, set against the backdrop of presumably Middle Eastern towns and villages being bombed, with the caption No more Mr Nice Guy.
