THE ISLANDER@IslanderWORLD
🇮🇷🇺🇸 Professor Marandi just dismantled Trump’s “gift” in one sentence.
Iran allowed a handful of ships to leave the Gulf heading to Bangladesh, China, India. Nothing to do with Trump. “Truthful things,” Marandi said, “rarely ever come out of his mouth.”
Trump told the world Iran sent him a present worth “a tremendous amount of money” (and if you calculate the damage of Iran's kinetic presents sure it is worth a tremendous amount) a present he he would claim was Iran allowing 8 ships through the strait Iran controls to countries that aren’t America.
The scary part is Trump really believed what he was saying, there's no calculated deception as there would require a sound mind. He seems to be on the Biden cocktail, running on a daily sizzle reel of explosions his own aides compiled to keep him focused, confabulating gifts and deals and "victories" in real time while it all goes to shit.
Grandiose confabulation the brain filling gaps in reality with flattering fiction, presented with total conviction. Iran though will keep sending kinetic presents to Trump worth tremendous value.
