@jayroo69 It's almost as if ... he shouldn't have threatened genocide in the first place...

If Trump does nothing, he's a Taco. If he sends Iran back to the Stone Age, he's an unhinged lunatic. TDS Losers will find a way to get mad at Trump for anything. There's no pleasing them so I'm glad Trump doesn't even try anymore. I love the fact that he doesn't have to worry about getting reelected.

In every single movie ever, is it the good guys or the villains who threaten "A whole civilization will die tonight"?

@JRussOfficial If he reduced Iran's major cities to the condition of Gaza today (flattened), that would pretty much get it there.

Oh, and there's no evidence from the Trump Social post that Trump is talking about using nuclear weapons against Iran. He just means bombing them back into the Stone Age using conventional weapons. Best not to leap to something even more terrible than what Trump actually said.
Damon Linker@DamonLinker

It's horrible how Trump threatens to wipe out "a whole civilization." Though it's also wise to assume he's bluffing to win maximal concessions from Iran, which he will then spin as a victory and vindication of his strength. Unless, of course, Iran calls his bluff.....

Here the thing: Trump lies as he breathes, and he makes threats that he always walks back. He’s been nothing but a lying/bullshitting marketer of himself his whole life. So when he threatens to end Iranian civilization tonight, odds are it’s an empty threat. But…even MAKING the threat is abhorrent, sickening, deranged, & dangerous. But alas, I’m a broken record: He’s utterly unfit for office, he’s always been utterly unfit for office, and he should be removed from power immediately. 25th Amendment.

I actually think reacting to Trump's post this morning with some hysteria is a good thing. It's a totally unhinged, immoral thing to say as president, and it should continue to shock us. He doesn't have to nuke Iran for it to be abhorrent and deranged. Just have some standards.
Jeremy Boreing@JeremyDBoreing

Donald Trump has been a national politician for a decade. Anyone still reacting to the guy’s negotiating tactics and hyperbole with this sort of hysteria ten years in should be disqualified from political commentary. If he nukes Tehran at 8pm, I’ll admit I’m the crazy one. When he doesn’t, this crew will admit nothing and find some other comment to be scandalized by.

@MarM_Homestead @jbelisle_ Was he threatening to end American civilization? Which civilization do YOU think "will die tonight"? Keep in mind, a regime is not a civilization. If he had meant "regime," he'd have said that, unless he's a liar or doesn't know what words mean.

@AIPTscience @jbelisle_ Who said he threatened to kill 93 million people? That's your interpretation. What civilization is he referring to? Is it what you assume?

This is crazy for so many reasons… 1) if you think he’s wiping Iran off the map. Please ask your boss to fire you. 2) I’ve seen this movie so many times. Trump wants 10, says he wants 100, and ends up with 20. 3) The fact that it keeps working and his opponents still think there’s a sliver of a chance he does the level 100 thing is Trump wizardry.

@JayVTheGreat The threat of killing 93 million people, even if it's a hollow one, isn't enough for you?

Donald Trump has made hyperbolic comments as part of negotiation tactics for a full decade, especially on social media, and yet people still run around like insane people reacting to his posts on here. I truly don’t get it.

@FmrRepMTG Anyone who takes this literally is dumb. People still don't understand this man. No one knows the meaning behind this statement except Trump. He says things and is so not literal a lot. He is also literal a lot. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT THIS MEANS EXCEPT TRUMP.

@lanedeankendall @Redshift1929 If there's even a 1% chance he's telling the truth of his intentions ... don't you think something should be done to stop it BEFORE it happens?

If you're actual takeaway is that Trump is going to commit nuclear genocide against the Iranian people, well, you're a moron. You can disagree with the post, in fact the first line and the last line of the post are antithetical towards each other, so that's a valid criticism. But if you genuinely think he has his finger on the nuclear button, that's something else and you might need help. However, if I'm wrong and he decides to wipe out millions of civilians I will happily join you all in escorting him to The Hague.

BREAKING: Trump says a 'whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will'.

I've voted and for the most part supported Trump mostly in hopes of staving off the Dem's with the gender crap and basically sexuality everything and corruption but Trump's starting to concern me with the level of anger in his messaging. Stuff getting really unhinged I hope he chills out some SMH.
