      I couldn’t agree more, especially since, for anyone not from the US, even the most moderate White House posts are so utterly absurd that these days it’s really hard to tell the difference between satire and real-life clown show.

      I can assure you that everyone is trying their best to adjust somehow, but it’s really hard given this level of absurdity.

        I don’t follow US politics very closely, but the other day I saw the official whitehouse twitter account posted footage of them bombing someone, with wii sports ‘nice shot’ shit over the top.
        These cunts have no concept of remorse, they’re having fun and joking around.
        Seeing that shit doesn’t make anyone respect them, it makes us wish somebody did the same thing back to them.

    I hope he drops dead on stage with cameras rolling and he’s unable to be resuscitated. That shit will play everywhere.

      Do you think resuscitating him would go well (it mostly doesn’t anyway)? So don’t dismiss that option.

          I’m reminded of an exchange in an old TV show:

          Well take this for what little it will profit you. As I look at you ambassador Mollari, I see a great hand reaching out of the stars. The hand is your hand. And I hear sounds. The sounds of billions of people calling your name."

          “My followers?”

          “Your victims.”

        Lumpty Trumpty has to die the most embarrassing way to avoid being a martyr. Cause you are right, before Lumpty Trumpty’s body has hit the floor; conspiracy theories and martyring will be happening.

        Not sure why you got downvotes, that’s exactly what his followers would think.

        I saw a video of a young girl in the middle easyt conflict who’s mom had died. Her response when asked if she was sad about her parents being dead, was less emotion about loss and her words were I’m glad she was martyred, I hope someday I get to do the same. That’s what MAGA will be like.

      This is the guy who threatened to nuke a hurricane because it wasn’t going the direction he wanted. I think we can safely assume all options, no matter how batshit crazy, are on the table.

    What I don’t get if it’s really such a priority from him and he is so mad…doesnt America have enough bombs to just level the region? Can’t he just make a call and say “kill everyone, make it glass” and it would be done?

    That would be horrible to do. I’m not condoning it and thousands of lives would be lost. That said in the 80s America could literally destroy the earth… With advancements in technology and the money we spent couldn’t they just say “do it” and make the whole area done for atleast a few generations? How do they lose wars? If they are so dead set on this can’t they just carpet bomb the entire country?

      I’m under the impression that no, the US does not have enough conventional weapons to do this. If he were to escalate to non-conventional weapons that would change things but I don’t want to think about how the rest of the world would react to the US carpet bombing an entire country with nukes…

        I agree I’m just confused how us seems to spend so much on military yet lose every war. It’s like a jock spending 12 hrs a day in the gym and losing every boxing match against the local chess club.

        Not to mention so much news that we “rescued” one airmam from a down helicopter. Great, now compare that to D-day or any battle in the US civil war…no contest. We are using so many resources for “war” rather right or wrong doesn’t matter, we do nothing but lose. I’d fire every officer in the military, you have an effective unlimited budget, you have millions of man hours at your disposal but consistently fail at every “war” since… Desert storm? Even that is questionable. Even before that have Vietnam… Lost… Korea… Didn’t actually lose but still didn’t win… Ww2 ok yeah we won with cooperation from most other countries.

        US is a “super power” and spend more than the 9 countries in the top 10 of military spending but we always lose…wtf??

      I think the military is pushing back on him, that’s why they fired four generals yesterday. If it were up to him we would have dropped many nukes already.

        Seems systemic… Spend trillions every year and never win a war since desert storm or ww2 before that. It’s not budget, it’s not man power either the military are doing something really poorly or there is some type of corruption somewhere taking that money…

    This does not appear to be real. He did have a similar truth social post:

    Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP

    Archive link

    The posted image doesnt exist at the date shown in the picture. Its effectively misinformation as its similar to but not actually a thing he posted

    Someone posted this archive tool, this link is to the 100 items per page view, you can scroll past the date in the photo and the post doesnt exist: https://www.trumpstruth.org/?per_page=100

        Its not really satire I’d its almost exactly what he said but slightly worse, theres not really a joke or commentary and it does succeed at being misleading, I feel like describing it that way is unreasonable. Its just an exaggeration of how bad what he said is.

        There are people in this tread litterally claiming its true because there are sources that substantiate him saying something very similar.
