@PeteButtigieg You will never be POTUS, Pete. Calm down

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something. For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

@SenWarren Calm down Liz. You need a beer and a clue. Trump’s hyperbole is just a wake up call to the Mullahs. He uses the language they understand.

We don’t know what will happen tonight: if Trump will back down or commit war crimes. But I do know that Congress has the power to stop this. Republican Leader John Thune must call the Senate back into session immediately. And Congress needs to vote to stop Trump’s war NOW.

@CAgovernor What have you done for the past 8 years except destroy your state.

Donald Trump repeatedly made a promise to the American people: no new wars. Now, he's threatening to wipe out an entire civilization.

@LangmanVince Money, his real estate portfolio is quite extensive. Tucker sold out for money. He found out it’s easier to bash the administration and embrace Islam than fight for what is right. He then uses the Bible to justify his antisemitism.

WTF happened to this guy?

@Rep_Stansbury Melanie is disturbing dumb.

This man is threatening mass killings and war crimes on social media posts. When will enough be enough? This is why the 25th Amendment and impeachment were created. These aren’t policy differences. He is threatening crimes. It’s time to invoke the 25th. But we can’t do it alone—we need our Republican colleagues to do the right thing, for this country and for the world.

@ChrisVanHollen Read this!

Trump is threatening to commit massive war crimes against the Iranian people starting at 8 pm tonight. He is completely unhinged, and it is long past time for Republicans to speak up. Congress should reconvene immediately and vote to end this war, NOW.

@KamalaHarris @gunny109t3 Everyone knows you didn’t write this yourself, Kammy. There are some pretty big words in your post so….no you didn’t.

The President of the United States is threatening to commit war crimes and wipe out a "whole civilization" — all because he started a disastrous war of his own making and had no plan and no strategy for how to end it. This is abhorrent, and the American people do not support this. Trump's recklessness is needlessly putting our brave service members in harm's way, destroying America's global standing, and making life even more unaffordable for the American people. We must all stand against this and oppose funding this illegal war of choice.

@CoryBooker You afraid, Cory? Not surprised you are. You’re a drama queen who has never seen danger or made a difficult decision in your life. Go cry somewhere. P.S. its not escalation it’s war. He’s trying to end it no thanks to you.

Trump’s escalation in Iran is reckless. It is unconstitutional. It is dangerous with consequences both vast and globally destabilizing. Right now, the world is holding its breath - watching, waiting, with many fearing what comes next. Moments like this are why the Senate exists. Not to sit silent. Not to stand down. But to check the abuses of an unrestrained executive. We cannot abdicate that duty. The Senate Majority Leader must choose country over party, summon the Senate back into session, and confront this crisis before it spirals further.

@RepCasar Trump uses hyperbolic language to threaten. The fact that it triggers your weak brain is quite telling. Btw, freaking shave and get a haircut. You look unkempt and gross.

This might be Trump’s most dangerous, unhinged statement yet.

@Durden202024848 @RepCasar This!

@RepCasar You know whats dangerous? Morons that read Trumps words and still believe it litterly. Do you also believe If Trump doesn't surrender to Iran that they bomb U.S allies back to the dark ages?

"A whole civilization will die tonight” are words no President of the United States had ever spoken until this morning. Donald Trump’s behavior is unhinged and making Americans less safe. After a 25-year career in the United States Navy, I have never met or served with anyone who so completely lacks the qualities of good leadership as Donald Trump does. If the President takes the actions he has threatened to take, countless Iranian civilians will die, it will massively escalate this war, and the United States will be seen as a country without a moral or ethical compass. That will make Americans less safe right now and risk the lives of thousands of service members. The consequences will have a lasting and damaging effect on our nation. Trump's mistakes have led us to this perilous moment, but the solution is not to escalate even further. This must stop.

@RepSwalwell You cheat on your wife, committed mortgage fraud and slept with a Chinese spy. Shut up!

The President must be removed. If Congress is too cowardly to do it, his own Cabinet must.

@AOC But, your brain and mental faculties have never functioned and unfortunately you are still blowing off your big mouth. This is your biggest problem….your mouth. Your degree is useless you learned nothing.

This is a threat of genocide and merits removal from office. The President’s mental faculties are collapsing and cannot be trusted. To every individual in the President’s chain of command: You have a duty to refuse illegal orders. That includes carrying out this threat.

@RoKhanna Ro Khanna is a Liberal Socialist stooge.

We need to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump. Threatening war crimes is a blatant violation of our constitution and the Geneva Conventions.

@AlanClaffie @RepDonBeyer Really? The proof and not the liberal media accusations. Iran bombed Israeli citizens, hotels in Dubai and Qatar and many more civilian these are verified facts.

@Jan2ap @RepDonBeyer How about that precision strike that wiped out a school full of girls?

The president doesn't know how to end his catastrophic war, so he's resorting to increasingly deranged threats to "obliterate" a country of 90 million people. My Republican colleagues need to come back to DC and vote for a War Powers Resolution to stop this madness.

@RepJasonCrow It’s called hyperbole. You weak minded twerp.

These are not the words of a sane person. Calling for the elimination of a civilization is a war crime. As I’ve repeatedly said, our military must only follow lawful orders. Every American of good conscience must repudiate this.

@Scaramucci @johnthune Tony, your butt must be really hurt that Trump found out after 7-10 days that you were completely incompetent and fired your ass. Grifting loser.

“A whole civilization will die tonight.” @johnthune Senator Thune: Are you serious right now? Are you not going to denounce this? Are you not going to seek the removal of this crazy person? This is your responsibility that is what Article I of the Constitution is about.

@MilesTaylorUSA Are you joking? This group of people you mentioned had NOTHING to do with getting Trump elected. For you to believe this is hyperbole at best.

There’s a tidal shift happening. People who got Trump elected are warning he’s demented: Tucker Carlson Megyn Kelly Joe Rogan Candace Owens Alex Jones Marjorie Taylor Greene They see it. Finally. The president is out of control. Will elected Republicans act?

@RepJayapal @gunny109t3 You should go back to India the shit hole of the East. Try visiting the poorest slums there to help your people. You are a fraud, a fake and a Communist. Next time in Cuba stay there.

I just got back from Cuba, where I visited a maternity ward with premature babies whose lives depend on incubators and ventilators — equipment that is at risk with energy shortages. The U.S. is effectively bombing Cuba's entire energy infrastructure. We must stop this cruelty.

@SenMarkKelly Ohhh, Mark, you would never have bombed a bridge or a power plant under orders…..would you? After all you were the big brave fighter pilot, right? The Iranians think nothing of bombing hotels full of people, though. You’ve lost your damn mind.

Threatening to target power plants and other non-military targets is not strength. If those words become orders to destroy civilian infrastructure with no valid military purpose, it’s hard to see how they would not violate the laws of armed conflict. America leads best with strength, discipline, and professionalism. Illegal orders to make civilians suffer would be a black mark on our military and our country.
