Grouchy Old Man

@RepLuna Why was the straight closed?

I just spoke with the President and would like to publicly congratulate him on this. Some of my not-so-smart Democrat colleagues will soon be forced to issue public statements of support when they understand the terms of what the agreement is. To be clear, President Trump has been consistent and precise in his messaging from the beginning. Only weeks ago, Iran was viewed as an existential threat to the US and most of Europe. NATO exposed who they really are. Many people got exposed. Those who try to use this to sow division or just straight-up lie have also outed themselves. To be clear, from the beginning, this was about saving American lives. President Trump has truly accomplished something that no other POTUS could have pulled off. PEACE WILL ULTIMATELY PREVAIL.

@PressSec And why was the strait closed?

This is a victory for the United States that President Trump and our incredible military made happen. From the very beginning of Operation Epic Fury, President Trump estimated this would be a 4-6 week operation. Thanks to the unbelievable capabilities of our warriors, we have achieved and exceeded our core military objectives in 38 days. More on that tomorrow morning from @SecWar and Chairman Caine! The success of our military created maximum leverage, allowing President Trump and the team to engage in tough negotiations that have now created an opening for a diplomatic solution and long-term peace. Additionally, President Trump got the Strait of Hormuz reopened. Never underestimate President Trump’s ability to successfully advance America’s interests and broker peace.

@RonFilipkowski That should get him another peace prize

So Trump’s exit strategy to get out of the war was to threaten war crimes then promise not to do the war crimes and leave while declaring victory.

@bourbonia @RonFilipkowski @gisdonewirh2020 The art of the deal

@RonFilipkowski @gisdonewirh2020 And Iran gets $2 million per ship for passage. What fucking moron negotiated this deal?

So there’s no regime change, we lift all sanctions against them going back decades, they retain missile and drone capabilities, they control the strait and can charge tolls, and keep their enriched uranium. So much for “unconditional surrender.”

@RpsAgainstTrump We lost another war…

So what did we actually achieve from this war? Iran still has enriched uranium, most of its ballistic missiles, the regime is still in power, and now it’s shown it can control the Strait of Hormuz, which it didn’t have before. And it still supports terrorism across the Middle East. What am I missing?

@princess_kim_k Nothing - the flash from a nuke would give you a nice ran for .00000034 seconds

Should I be going through my wardrobe? What does one wear for the apocalypse?

@MeidasTouch TACO

BREAKING: Trump says he is pausing planned U.S. strikes on Iran for two weeks after talks with Pakistan’s leadership, conditioning the halt on Iran reopening the Strait of Hormuz and touting a potential “definitive” peace deal now under negotiation

@Markfry809 Racism

How in hell did America go from This to This?🤪

@MysterySolvents Sand will become glass

Well, any updated opinions about what will happen at 8:00?

@ThrillaRilla369 Meth and Gatorade

What’s the fastest way you have ever lost weight?

@ScottGreenfield 5 - Laura loomer pushes the nuke button .@LauraLoomer

What will happen tonight? Option 1: Trump orders the bombing of civilian infrastructure and the military complies. Option 2: Trump orders the bombing of civilian infrastructure and the military refuses. Option 3: Trump chickens out. Option 4: Trump makes up lie about a deal.

@tower_dk @AnnieJacobsen They have to obey it

@AnnieJacobsen Those who are responsible for authenticating the president's order will not obey it. Mark my words.

The president has sole authority to launch nuclear weapons. The nuclear codes are authenticated by his voice. It’s a short, call-and-response process direct to the NMCC—the nuclear bunker beneath the Pentagon. That’s it.

@RpsAgainstTrump 3 weeks 🤣 Then 2 months 🤣 We will be the laughing stock of the world

🚨 Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif: “Diplomatic efforts to reach a peaceful settlement in the ongoing war in the Middle East are progressing steadily and gaining momentum, with the potential for real results in the near future. To give diplomacy a chance to work, I urge President Trump to extend the deadline by two weeks. Pakistan also sincerely calls on our Iranian brothers to reopen the Strait of Hormuz for the same period as a goodwill gesture. We further urge all parties to observe a full ceasefire for two weeks to allow diplomacy to bring the war to a conclusive end, in the interest of long-term peace and stability in the region.”

@RepKeithAmmon @JustTheTweets17 Americans voted for racism Not war

I didn't vote for wiping out a whole civilization in one night. Did you? I voted for no new new wars.

@dcpoll @cmclymer Americans voted for this

@cmclymer 🎯 We all knew he was that bad when he started waging his racist birther campaign. And it's been downhill ever since. Fuck all those people who told us to calm down.

"Calm down. He won't be that bad." "He won't go after political opponents." "He won't try to overturn an election." "He won't start a stupid, costly war." "He won't purge the military." "He won't use nukes." <--- We're currently here.

What are the chances Trump might use nukes?

@princess_kim_k MAHA

The man who has the nuclear codes & most lethal military in global history is deeply unwell & is now threatening genocide.
