🚨🇮🇷🇺🇸 "Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards" to "A whole civilization will die tonight"... the real story behind Trump's two most shocking posts The WSJ's inside account finally reveals what was happening when Trump sent the posts that stunned the world. Six hours before the Easter morning Hormuz post, at 2 AM, he'd received word that the second F-15 airman had been rescued from Iran after a 24-hour operation that could have turned into the lowest point of his presidency. Trump wasn't even in the Situation Room during the rescue. Aides deliberately kept him out because they believed his impatience would hurt the operation. He got updates by phone. He finally went to bed after 2 AM. Six hours later, he was back at it. "Open the Fuckin' Strait, you crazy bastards, or you'll be living in Hell." With "Praise be to Allah" added on Easter morning. Republican senators and Christian leaders flooded the White House with calls. Why the F-word? Why an Islamic prayer on Easter? An adviser asked him about it. Trump said the Allah idea was his own. He wanted to sound "as unstable and insulting as possible" because he thought it would bring Iran to the table. The language, he said, the Iranians would understand. Then he asked aides: "How's it playing?" Three days later came the civilization-ending post. Also improvisational. Also not part of any national security plan. Rubio privately told others the language might actually work. Ninety minutes before the deadline, Trump announced the ceasefire. The madman theory of diplomacy, running live on Truth Social. Chaos as strategy. Profanity as policy. And somehow, 10 days later, the war is closer to ending than anyone thought possible... Source: WSJ
