Okay, there’s no way we are coming back from this one. We are in so much trouble, partly thanks to no guard rails and no coherent mind. The flip-flops are getting worse. This is not the face we want to show the world, but it is, and so much damage has been done already. We suffer. We speak out, and that means it’s not just Pz. But some are bigger, and they are getting public notice. But it seems there’s nothing that can be said or done to stop it. With respect for Raw Story:
President Donald Trump unleashed a flurry of threats, promises and ideas Sunday in a phone call with Fox News’ Trey Yingst, the details of which left one independent journalist in utter shock. The phone call occurred Sunday morning, just one day after Iranian military officials announced they would be closing the Strait of Hormuz again, citing violations of the tentative peace deal agreed to by Washington and Tehran last week. As Trump’s coveted peace deal imploded in real time, the president issued a series of threats and statements that independent journalist Aaron Rupar described as “bonkers.”
Yep. He is making a bad situation worse, which likely shreds the peace deal that people have worked so hard to achieve. We don’t know how much Vance had to do with it since he’s not exactly bright. But it seems like it was almost done, and then Hezbollah was attacked, which blew up, no pun intended, the deal. It never fails. Thanks for nothing, Bibi. He’s not the one trying to make a peace agreement. Bibi does what he pleases and to hell with everyone else.
“President Trump [told] Fox News he spoke with Iranian officials overnight and said ‘you close it and you won’t have a country,’” Yingst said on Fox News, recounting his phone call with the president that occurred just 20 minutes earlier. “He went on to tell these officials, ‘You won’t even make it back to your f—ing country.’”
You know it’s bad when Trump starts dropping F-bombs. Remember, no guard rails, and this definitely proves they are gone. How many times has he threatened Iran now? Is it 500 or 600? But the fact that he’s getting worse should be a cause for concern. Trump has nukes. Trump could very well use one or more of those nukes and make America a pariah in the world. Don’t pooh-pooh me. It could happen. It seems people aren’t able to talk him down very much anymore. That is a *major* problem. And apparently, he’s come down from the “high” of his fights on his birthday on the Ellipse. Stupid and ridiculous as it was, at least he was focused on one thing that was a big deal on HIS birthday, not the country’s 250th anniversary. He wasn’t cursing out Iran.
Trump also responded to recent comments from Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, who said that Iran would not give up its right to enrich uranium, which has a wide list of non-military applications. “President Trump [told] Fox News [Pezeshkian] better ‘watch his mouth,’ he better ‘shape up or we’ll take over the rest of the country,’” Yingst said, recalling his call with Trump. “He said ‘I have a 60-day option, and I can do whatever I want after that option,’ so again, President Trump is leaving a variety of considerations on the table.”
This is not a pleasant topic. I hope I’m doing it justice. But folks, after finding out about this, I’m now worried, not just pissed off. Trump has gone back to the threats against Iran. What happens if he actually does something this time, or a future time? And what happens if he doesn’t use “normal” weapons? It’s worth thinking about. What he does reflects on America; what the world sees as America is Trump and his shenanigans. The two are interwound. So we’d best consider that as a major factor. What Trump does is what America does.
See you soon!
Friends, I know everybody begs you for money. I promise you that, of all the outlets bugging you for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a bunch of old, disabled people, except one writer in his mid-50s. But the rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the ability to continue our quest to tell the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
