“Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.”
It’s hard to know where to go with this other than to suggest Trump has completely lost his mind.
Key Points
- Trump is mentally unstable. He is obviously not in control of his emotions, and is angry not just at Iran, but the entire world.
- For the last two weeks he has alternated from not caring if the strait is open to saying the strait was the world’s problem not his and threatening.
- Trump has many times stated negotiations with Iran were going well. Iran denies and allies confirm there are no negotiations at all.
- Despite not caring if the strait is open and it’s not his problem, Trump now says “Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah.”
- Trump has also alternated between calling this a war and an excursion. In a recent reply to a reporter, he stated “It’s an excursion that will save us from war, and the war will be, uh, for them, it’s a war. For us, it turned out to be easier than we thought.”
- Trump has several times claimed the war is over but Iran does not know it yet.
- “A regime change has occurred.” And “We have a regime change nobody thought was possible,” said Trump.
- Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is on a crusade leading services at the Pentagon with ministers praising Trump as being appointed by God and wishing destruction of Iran.
- Allies tell Trump to go to hell (figuratively)
“All Hell Will Rein Down” Iran Progress to Date
“Negotiations Are Going Extremely Well” with “Defenseless Iran“, thanks to a “Regime Change” that “No One Thought Possible“. Unfortunately, we need to “Bomb Iran Back to the Stone Age” anyway. So, in 48 hours “All Hell Will Rein Down” on Iran to “End the War that Is Already Over“, in “Four to Six Weeks” that has now lasted 5 weeks already, and was initially expected to be over in days, and has been declared “Over” many times. This is necessary because defenseless “Iran Doesn’t Realize the War is Over”. Best of all, please don’t forget “When Oil Prices Go Up, We Make Lots of Money.“
“Glory be to GOD!”
Everything in bold is an actual quote from Trump.
I posted that yesterday in Trump Threatens to Escalate Iran War, Says ‘Hell Will Rein Down’
Did Trump mean rain or rein? Who knows, but Hell is coming.
Benjamin Netanyahu, Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, and the sycophants surrounding Trump goaded Trump into this asinine war.
In case you didn’t know, Trump’s own top general and Secretary of Defense told Trump in his first term that Iran was honoring terms of Obama’s nuclear deal.
What If Iran Just Honored Obama’s Nuclear Deal? Would We Be at War?
On March 25, 2026, I commented What If Iran Just Honored Obama’s Nuclear Deal? Would We Be at War?
Trump’s First Term Flashback
- Trump’s US State Department: Iran honoring the terms.
- Trump’s Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: Iran honoring the terms.
- International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA): Iran honoring the terms.
- Arms Control Association: Iran honoring the terms.
- All US European allies: Iran honoring the terms.
- Every other signee of the accord: Iran honoring the terms.
- Trump’s top general Gen. Joseph Dunford: Iran honoring the terms.
- Trump’s Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis: Iran was complying with the terms of the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal
Points 7 and 8 above are in recorded testimony to Congress. It’s undeniable.
So, why should Iran believe any deal Trump offers? Why should any nation believe any Trump deal?
They shouldn’t and don’t.
Allies Refuse Trump’s Demands and Iran Mocks Trump
European allies, Iran, and China are now refusing his demands. All of Europe has rejected Trump’s demand to enter this war. Moreover, they has all denied US airspace to conduct war.
Iran is openly mocking Trump with cartoons about regime changes in the US, not Iran.
Trump does not know how to deal with other nations standing up to him. Now the whole world is ignoring him at once.
Even Israel is ignoring Trump. Israel and the US have different goals. Trump is trapped into fighting Israel’s way.
Trump does not know how to deal with this.
Today, it should be perfectly clear that Trump has lost his mind. He is unable to govern, but Republicans are unwilling to do anything about it.
This is a very dangerous setup. Trump is totally unstable and likely to do literally anything. When the time comes, I hope the military refuses illegal orders.
That’s what’s behind Hegseth firing a slew of generals.
For discussion, please see Army Chief of Staff Fired by Hegseth, No Reason Given. What’s It Mean?
Expect “All Hell” in the midterms, because it’s coming. Huge numbers of impeachments will follow.
Grok Fact Check. Direct Reply to my Post
“Trump’s Truth Social post is confirmed across outlets including Reuters, WaPo, NYT, and Axios. Amid Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz—disrupting ~20% of global oil flows during active conflict—he’s issuing a deadline for reopening or face strikes on infrastructure. The profane phrasing and “Praise be to Allah” sign-off fit his unscripted style of maximum pressure, which supporters view as leverage and critics as overreach. Context: weeks of back-and-forth threats, denied negotiations, and rising energy costs.”

I’m starting to be very concerned about Trump…me think he’s mentally and emotionally unstable…he should resign and let Vance take over…before is too late…
You wanted this. Own it.
I did not want this. But we had lousy choices for President. You can’t always get what you want.
Politically, we never seem to get what we want.
Draconian ballot access laws certainly help.
… and you smugly chose the worst of the options.
We don’t know anything new about him. This has all been obvious since 2016.
Bloomberg is not reporting the actual quote and skipping the “Praise be to Allah” part in its entirety. They do refer to an expletive but as usual he gets a pass. Sometimes I wish I’d never found this site. That way I could just drink the blood flavored MAGA Kool-Aid and not puke as much.
The election was between a dry chicken sandwich and a dog turd with shards of glass in it, and it sounds like you didn’t order the chicken.
There were choices for the Republican nomination but no one wanted to hear them out.
I believe that at Alice’s Restaurant you can get anything that you want,
Providing, of course, you are not a litterbug.
You did not have two lousy choices. You had one choice for a demonstrated, completely unfit individual who had already been impeached twice, someone who gaslighted the public in the early months of the Pandemic, which undoubtedly cost many lives, criticized our loyal allies and sucked up to brutal autocrats around the world, and a person who stoked an attack on the U.S. Capital with bald-faced lies about election fraud,
Your other choice was a left-of-center former Attorney General of our largest state and a sitting U.S. Senator. You may not have been aligned with the majority of her policy stances, but she was not an existential threat to our nation, our global alliances, and the rule of law.
So, you see, you did not have two lousy choices. You had one choice that was outright dangerous based upon a past record, and you had another choice who was not dangerous, but someone with whom you may have philosophical differences.
Wrong. You have the illusion of choice. The system was not set up to benefit the many. Why is it that so many are just like you and still can’t see it? None of the current system is needed.

I started listening to the first link you posted above to get an idea of what types of information/opinions inform you. I heard enough after about 10 minutes. If this is where your head is, you are too far gone for any attempt at rehabilitation. I suggest you move to whatever place in the world is better than the U.S. because obviously, you are so jaded and misinformed that you no longer, if you ever did, respect the very ideals that the United States was founded upon.
theres nothing worse than a morally bankrupt baby killing sycophant berating you because they honestly believe the hag would have been a better choice. The rest of the world doesnt want to deal with the USA’s dirty filthy lucre anymore. Trumps going mad because the Masters will get their pound of flesh. harris is as anti human as any the godless left can ooze from its sores…. peace and love
I gotta think, that if the people, ally’s, etc. don’t care much for Trump, they may feel the very same way about Vance.
We haven’t seen much of Vance in the news lately. Perhaps he has to stay “Plausibly decent” via some separation. From a philosophical point of view “Replacing Trump with Vance is like changing your shirt because you shit in your pants”
Yeah vance is a different kind of dangerous.
Maybe Vance doesn’t want to be President. Otherwise he has to clean up the mess, much of which he helped to create.
He wants it, and can blame Trump, as it’s getting cleaned up his way. .
There is a reason I thought Trump would be the GOP’s undoing as early as 11/09/2016, it’s shocking it has taken so many Americans as long as this to see such atrocities from Trump before ever questioning their having elected him twice. Or thrice, if you ask him.
How about invoking Section 4 of the 25th Amendment?
It looks to me that this section was written for exactly this situation
Less than two weeks ago Trump had a cabinet meeting where he is on record saying that if others knew their plans, they’d invoke the 25th amendment. This was said right in front of all the people who would be charged with this responsibility!
Said something like that about the election. Or was that elon.
Also said “I can destroy America”. And I saw him say it live on TV.
Starting ? Really ? Many have been saying this for months if not years.
You’re just now starting?
just starting go to be concerned…?
Vance is also crazier than a shit house rat.
Trump is DESPERATE “The key to good decision making is not knowledge. It is understanding. We are swimming in the former. We are desperately lacking in the latter.”
― Malcolm Gladwell,
> Moreover, they have all denied US airspace to conduct war.
Not so. Mid-East operation run out of Ramstein AB/ Germany, and other vassals such as Poland will certainly not close their airspace until the first attacks on US assets there, following the published list. AI digital grid data centers first to go – excellent, doing us a great favor. Just imagine the CO2 footprint reduction – the reptiles’ own Agenda – should be pleased.
Wonder how many more days until global boycott of US products and services start on a grand scale. Can’t be long.
And, for heaven’s sake – the strait is NOT closed – plenty of vessels passing, of course not those of the aggressor states, both now headed by raving mad lunatics in plain sight of the whole world.
Nice to have been around in the good times..
Good Lord -Traffic in the strait is down 90%.
The only cargo that goes through is with Iran’s position.
Austria, Spain, France, Italy, and Switzerland, have restricted or closed their airspace to US military aircraft involved in operations against Iran
I thought Germany too, but was mistaken
How about “Iran’s permission” instead of “Iran’s position”?
Yep…we are all so screwed. The fallout hasn’t even started. The price at the pump and its effects on products we use hasn’t even hit the market. Yet the Dow keeps playing spin the wheel and it still looks like it’s all good.
His crazy act is just a technique anyone who rode on the NYC subways knows. If there was a menacing crazed passenger you just start twitching and making distorted faces and it usually neutralizes the other guy’s energy. The Iranian leadership is WAY too smart for tall for this old ploy though.
Yes, Trump is conducting a master class in game changing war crime genocide. Lots of hyperbole but we won’t even be talking about this in a few weeks. Social media makes people unnecessarily hysterical.
Iran is openly mocking Trump with cartoons about regime changes in the US, not Iran.
This seems more realistic than anything Trump has said. The midterms will flatten the GOP, Trump will be impeached, Vance will probably follow, and President Hakeem Jeffries will ask for the UN to mediate a peace treaty.
Or not. But the above is still more sane than Trump.
Anyone ever think trump is firing the top generals and replacing them with yes men so he can retain power if elections fail.
Vance & Johnson can invoke the 25th Amendment and have the Marshalls drag Trump out of the Oval Office.
I just watched a video on FB about how world powers have risen and then collapsed over the centuries. At the end of Spain’s reign they apparently borrowed 4 times and defaulted 4 times. Now we have a President who had 6 enterprises go bankrupt and has been borrowing money to pay off old loans before having to file bankruptcy. What were the odds of electing this type of person to the presidency at this time??? I guess it shows that not even democracy is immune to the forces of psychology and economics. All the other great powers were run by royalty or authoritarians of some sort except perhaps the UK. But their decline started during their oligarchy phase and before full sufferage.
Americans have lost their mind for going killing human beings 10,000 miles away for the pleasure of the Christ killers and the Christian haters (they spit on Christians in Jerusalem TODAY)
Medical event, perhaps. With the cursing and the God talk.

simplicius76 covers the apparently fake rescue.
Donald has nothing but contempt for the American people. He sees us as a bunch of deadbeat tenants, like his daddy had to deal with in the good old first days of the Trump Organization. He is daring us, all of us, to challenge both the army and law enforcement community, which is the only part of the government he truly worships. The police treat useless people like they are useless people — and Don doesnt have to get his hands dirty. Sad thing is every southerner who got free dental and vision care from RAM on the 60 Minutes program tonight, cause they dont have insurance or cant use their insurance, will vote for him. Yes, 250 years of existence was probably as far as we were gonna get anyway. How did the Romans last 800??
Trump sometimes falls asleep in meetings, he loses his temper, he’s at times angry and chaotic, but he’s not demented. Dementia definitions are very specific I’ve been watching Trump for 60 years….I don’t see much change other than his egomania is getting worse, and presidential power has gone to his head. He’s not openly breaking laws and using presidential power to get even with people. As far as Iran goes, the military has been planning for this war for a long time but it took someone like Trump to actually start it. Iran has been a problem in the Middle East for 30 years and their proxy armies have destabilized Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen. They’ve attacked all the Gulf states now so it’s pretty clear they’re a threat to stability in a region that’s been fighting for thousands of years. For the MIddle East, they were a serious military threat and it’s obvious to me that they need a new government. Not easy to do that without a violent overthrow. I doubt that anyone wants to invade so I expect that Trump will create such bad conditions that the people will rise up and overthrow the government. Trump needs to make sure they have weapons to protect themselves. I realize I’m in the minority on this feed but I put this up hoping for more balance. This war is a good argument for electric vehicles and more solar.
The US is wasting time and resources in overseas conflicts, National security should be built on domestic strength, specifically by securing our power grid and reducing global oil dependence. We have the technology, tools, solar, wind, advanced battery storage, nuclear power and electric vehicles to make this happen.
We have the wrong people in place to make this happen.
You’re referencing China.
The United States has no ability to effectuate the things you want done.
His vocabulary has shrunk fairly dramatically…. A symptom of dementia.
Loss of emotional control, like his outburst this morning on Truth Social- another symptom
I don’t think there is a single example in history where Bombing from the air has succeeded in driving regime change. Ukraine is the latest example of how it only strengthens resolve against the attackers. I see no reason to expect a different outcome here.
This all sounds like a few years ago with Biden. We get what we deserve.
Can we be rid of Executive Orders finally? All this bologna is done with them.
Ahh, but the Strait of Hormuz! That’s – that’s where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes, but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with – geometric logic – that a duplicate key to the Strait of Hormuz DID exist!
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
The US War Crimes Act is pretty clear: what Trump is threatening to do is a war crime, and the US military would be obliged to refuse to implement such an order. Let’s see whether there is another TACO on Tuesday, or the rule of law wins with the military refusing, or we are a complete rogue nation.
Why are you posting on Finviz? It’s a financial site. You only rant about Trump and demonstrate every psychosis that psychiatrists list for Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Fresh CNNpolling shows PresidentDonald Trump’s approval ratings hitting new second-term lows on the economy, foreign affairs and inflation, as public unease deepens across core policy areas.
Because Trump’s actions adversely affect Global trade and Economy.
There’s all sorts here. Broad spectrum of political beliefs. What makes this place interesting is it is not an echo chamber. Most here recognize Trump is a disaster no matter their political views. They are realistic. I really hope we can get back to fighting over economic systems and what is the best way to go forward. Right now we are watching a slow motion train wreck coming right at us and we all just want to survive this terrible man and his sycophants.
The French ex-General hit the nail on the head by saying joining USIS now in their war of aggression is like buying a cheap ticket for a trip on the Titanic – after it hit the iceberg.

Yes Trump is crazy and demented so how do we profit from it?
Oil market up, WTI at ~$114 and Brent $111. Asia markets open soon, I expect KOSPI to crash again so I’m long/short EWY. I am shorting Australia cuz they’re in deep trouble over there and they don’t even know it.
Apologies for not issuing Mishelin stars this weekend, some posts deserved it but I was away for the holiday weekend. Spoke to clueless MAGA people at family event, all drive big trucks complaining about high gas prices, lol! They have no clue at what’s coming in a few weeks and over the summer.
The lord has risen and so shall the profits this week. Peace out.
Do worry, Trump will find a way to make things even worse.™
Perhaps Michelin would be more correct,
Or was Mishelin an intentional doge of trademark/copyright.
So, the market opens Sunday evening with a whimper, indexes down only about 1/2%, WTI up two bucks and basically nonreactive to some of the worst statesmanship, if not policy, our nation has ever seen.
How on earth we do not have a serious meltdown going on in the markets is quite perplexing. Then again, if you watch Fox you would think we are winning and that tens of thousands of Iranian civilians dying at our hands is light Easter Sunday reading material. Only four weeks we were disparaging their leadership for allegedly killing protestors? WTF?
Meanwhile, I’m trying to get a Phillips Blue tech 3.0 Tesla MRI purchased and delivered to our local hospital through our local charitable foundation.
In these times, stay close to your neighbors, be kind and attentive to preparing your gardens.
I had a thesis going into this Easter weekend. It was this: the general public is clueless about what is going on.
Sample survey: talked to family members and everyone that showed up to family gathering this weekend. People were aware of Iran war but were otherwise clueless about impacts to hydrocarbon supply chain, shipping, shortages, etc.
The main complaints were high(er) gas prices but every thing else was glazed eyes or deer in headlight look.
At some point reality will hit hard to these clowns and that’s when the panic and market adjustment will set in. My bet is May time frame right before school lets out and summer hits.
“Sell in May and go away to your staycation” will be the theme.
I’m well positioned with puts for a summer meltdown across the board and I know Trump won’t let me down.
I’m happy to see you supporting the clearing processes with your option purchases. Brokers and regulators gotta eat too. Best of luck!
Every war from WW2 has been managed to limit effects to the public
There is really so very, very little info of actual war events this time so people are happily unaware
The first bleedthru is gas/ fiesel prices
The time limit of this war was to prevent bleedthru of such effects
That has failed with the closing of Hormuz and Iran hitting other Gulf countries
The bleedthru will get worse–it is unavoidable now and the hit will be serious and deep on the US economy
We’ll see how happy people will be then
Yup that is we have such a high tech military. The people would not put up with this as easily if their children were dying.
Look for fun in the market tomorrow….
Interview with Rachel Scott (ABC)
Hint of nukes in the offing….
Rachel Scott: Spoke with President Trump. He told me the conflict should be over in days, not weeks but if no deal is made he’s blowing up the whole country with “very little” off the table.
“If happens, it happens. And if it doesn’t, we’re blowing up the whole country,” he said.
I asked if there’s anything off limits.
“Very little,” he said.
And some reports of Putin sending ballistic nuclear warheads to Iran. Putin clearly wanted the US to attack Iran and got his wish. Now this can be used as a negotiating leverage on Ukraine.
Interesting.
Well probably a combination of things. Trumps nuts/ wealthy people dont like people telling them no. / hes got to go bigger than the files. Well he got it/. Hes not only protecting himself you know /
With all his biblical babbling i wonder who has his ear and what have they been feeding him.
As long as those people are getting what they want it will keep up.
It to two republican senators to walk over and tell nixion its over. I dont see that.
Im getting nervous hes gonna use nukes.
His spiritual advisor is telling him he’ll get a free pass into heaven if he summons Jesus for them.
He sounds more like Osama bin Laden.
Donnie Trump Laden ?

Have all of you already forgotten? This is all Joe Biden’s fault. If Trump has a lost mind, Biden lost it.

Looks like John Reed (hospital) couldn’t fix the problem.
He runs on speed and hamburders. They just needed to top him up.
Estimated cost to rescue the WSO = $300 million
Trump needs at least another $500 billion at that rate
The 300 Million Dollar Man
Sounds about right, given inflation.
Not sure if this is already included here. 42.5 Billion so far.
Will be difficult for the US to print their way out of this one.

Okay. This is really getting nuts.
This is the kind of irresponsible rhetoric that makes me think Trump, or someone else, is trying to trigger markets for some ulterior motives.
It was that way at first, but it’s all out of their control now. Their announcements are being ignored, and the bombing never really stopped.
This was always the proper way to deal with Trump. It’s unfortunate it took the world 6 years to get here but better late than never.
Now that being said, this was always a no win/no benefit situation for the US. It’s Europe, Asia, and the middle east that stand to gain from a pacified Iran, and lose from its further radicalization.
The West chopping off their hands to give Trump the middle finger will not work out well in the long term.
Iran will not be pacified. They will burn down all the infrastructure of those responsible for attacking them (as promised!).
I fear Iran will go easy on Israel because half of the population of Israel is Arab. Israel, on the other hand, is attacking America’s erstwhile allies in the GCC because it is perfectly happy to see all Arabs in the Middle East die.
Europe will buy from the mullahs and move on more than likely.
we will lose our, or most of our European bases and move on.
European will have to stop.sceewing Russia with our d!ck. they will survive.
if russia and Germany make nice, they may be able to form a new power block.
The next president will be receiving lots of meals from our former allies and US special interest groups.

Trump is showing clear signs of dementia. I’ve known several dementia suffers who have lashed out just like Trump is doing now.
In my opinion Trump has gone mad and there is no doubt he, Hegseth and other members of this administration are war criminals as is Bibi and the Israeli government.
There will be no peace until the US and Israel are suffer an thoroughly complete and humbly defeat in this war and throughout the Middle East.
He gives the term “boomer” a whole new dimension.
IMDoc, who is an MD and who posts on http://www.nakedcapitalism.com, says Trump shows symptoms identical to those of someone with White Matter Disease, common in the elderly.
I am a cat and not an MD, but my theory is that Trump was always a sociopath, just now he is coming into his own power. Caligula.
Trump has always lashed out. He’s old, but he’s not demented by any medical classical definition of dementia. He knows what day it is, what year it is, and he definitely knows who’s the President of the United States. H knows who the last President was. People often describe Trump as demented, but that’s false. He’s a lot of things, and has some psychiatric problems, but he’s not demented….yet.
I’ll ask again. Without passing judgement on how we got to the current situation with Iran, has anyone got a recommended plan going forward for the US to resolve the situation in a manner acceptable to all parties involved?
There isn’t one that’s acceptable to all parties. Not even close. The US will have to back down and lose face, and that usually takes about 4 or 5 years of death and destruction.
Well that’s the problem: the people that got us into this Epic Fuckup have no idea how to get us out. What are your suggestions?
Surrender, reparations, withdraw all American from the ME.
Place Trump in irons and deliver him over bodily to face the people of Iran.
Some dipshits here insist that Trump would be welcomed with open arms.
Well, let’s do find out.
He can go to a mosque and praise Allah with them.
No, it’s going to be closer to a gang fight at 2 am. Iran will be badly wounded, Israel will be found with a bullet through its head, and a naked U.S. will be limping towards the line of police, hands in the air. “Iran is crazy, man. Go arrest him, man! He popped a cap in my behind! I didn’t start it, I swear!”
It is intolerable to Iran that they get whupped on over and over by Israel and the US
Israel and the US see it as their right to do so
So Iran is being pushed into being a nuclear state to stop this cycle
And the US and Israel get more frantic
Easiest solution, China and/or Russia put Iran under their nuclear umbrella
But none of the parties trust one another, and why should China or Russia work to save the US or Israel when the influence and respect for America is being so effectively diminished
So it will be a long “two weeks”
I don’t think they even need nukes or ICBMs. They can wreck all that oil and gas infrastructure, taking down the global economy, and causing millions to starve.
They wouldn’t need to control the strait anymore, because there would be nothing to ship out of it, or any number of other ports.
Why should we care what is acceptable to Iran? Losers don’t get to make choices. Thye do what they are ordered to do.
Typical attitude of an uncaring asshole. Unfortunately most of the current US regime agrees with you. Well it looks like America is going to be handed their ass and it’s a well deserved beat down.
looks like it will be determined on the battlefield.
Actually I think it will be determined in the boardrooms and trading houses around the world. The battlefield has a small part.

Kevin makes lots of good content. be good
This is your last warning. – Iran is a crack (nuke) addict who killed a cop (attacked everyone in sight) and now is shooting at 50 pissed off police officers with shotguns and AR-15’s. Iran will undoubtably choose suicide by cop.
Reminds me of Florida Sheriff Grady Judd comment “Innocent people are being murdered where prosecutors don’t do their job”.
Trump has given the people who run Iran a thousand offramps, but they still choose to do stupid criminal behavior. The death cult that runs Iran will no doubt be the crack(nuke) addict and die. I want law enforcement to give criminals the last chance and appeal to them in any way possible. I don’t even care if he lies to them to get them to save themselves. In short, the message is not for you; It is for the crack (Nuke) addict, Iran.
This is the collimation of 47 years and longer of bad prosecution. They admitted in the last treaty that this would not stop Iran from getting a nuke and missile to deliver it. Obama gave them pallets of cash. I admire Trump for showing restraint, but there comes a time to choose and we are here.
Trump isn’t the only one that’s gone crazy I see.
When they tip over, they go big.
Wow, you are seriously in a social media bubble, or straight out in denial.
What ever happened to Q anon?
for some reason, I feel you would know
I wanted to give you an upvote, but the machine wouldn’t let me. Maybe it has a censorship function.
Yes. Trump has lost his mind.
In old age narcissists often lost the ability to continue shielding the delusary ego from onslaughts and contradictory encounters. Reaction to final defeat actually has actually garnered its own term: narcissistic rage. This rage is boundless — he would rather sacrifice the whole world than face the dissolution of his artificial ego.
– Trump is mentally unstable. > At times he certainly appears a bit unstable, and gets a bit unhinged with his frustration, but look at all the talking heads in the Media, and all the other screaming Politicians. He is obviously not in control of his emotions at times, but while I agree with that, so are many other Politicians and People connected to or with one. Screaming and screeching seem to be what they all do now days. In rally’s, in protest, in schools, and even businesses it’s unhinged a bit at times, no? He is a product of the environment of which he is located in. Whether by choice or not, only he knows, but why deal with the frustration it obviously causes him? I am happy for him, it’s his last dance on this floor, ballroom or not…
– For the last two weeks he has alternated from not caring if the strait is open. > Again, and it’s obvious to me anyway, his frustration level is off the charts, and it leads him to be out of control at times. There are very obvious reasons for the Strait (NATO? Ally’s? Neighbors?), and I would say it was caused by him being unprepared for it, for whatever reason doesn’t matter, and is taking it out on actions not being accomplished quickly enough. He is a whole lot of the reason why, and Iran’s inability to form a leadership in control, to be able to actually work something out, isn’t helping.
– Trump has many times stated negotiations with Iran were going well. > Trumps theory of positive thinking along with unverified expectations (does his support say “Yes” all the time or what)?
– Trump has several times claimed the war is over but Iran does not know it yet. > His lips kicking him in the mouth again, but in reality to Trump, his part is over he thinks, so the war is.
– Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is on a crusade. > I see a bit of Trump in his attitude, frustration and inability to get things done. Pete has to get more done, and less complaining about what isn’t. Trump needs to do the same, as I have eluded to in the past.
>> We will see what this all means soon enough, because something is going to give by or after the Mid-Terms in terms of Policy, Leadership, and Direction imho.
I remember when Fox called Obama unpresidential for using a selfie stick.
His great crime of wearing a tan suit is not to be underestimated /s
I still suffer that Obama Trauma.
Yes he nearly ended the Republic./s
Haven’t all you city people every lived with anyone like Trump? They are used to having to make final decisions, they know they often have to do so before all the facts are in, and they get on with it. They may not be nice people, but they are effective.
They may say all sorts of things to make you think they are going to do something other than what they are actually planning. They may also change their plans drastically in mid-stream.
Trump is probably the most effective president you have had since Reagan. If you remember, Reagan pushed the Soviet Union into collapse and ended the fear of Communism. Trump, for good or ill, is ending terrorism in the Middle East and I suppose helping to impose a Pax Israelium on the region. Get used to it.
ending terrorism in the Middle East
And how is that enforced? With the USA caught in the region with troops and monies forever or until the coming of someones messiah?
“Haven’t all you city people ever lived with anyone like Trump?”
No, we take Grandpa to the Memory Care Facility or to the proper medical professional for help.
Apparently, you “non-city people” vote for them to become your leader.
Trump is facilitating Israeli terrorism. Israel wouldn’t know pax if it bit them on the ass.
Trump has to be a horrible poker player.
He’s incapable of grasping the rules.
He bluffs every hand and demands everyone fold
What happens when JASSM cruise missiles launched from airplanes run out? There are enough of them for 3 more weeks at current operational tempo.
After that USAF and USN jets will have to enter Iranian airspace to drop dumb bombs or gliding bombs. The latest F-15 disaster shows that flying inside with old jets like F-15 or F-18 is not a good idea. Even F-35 got hit and likely written off.
This basically leaves two options after three weeks. 1/ Use only F-35 for bombing raids but 2 bombs have to be carried in internal bay. 2/ Use F-15 or F-18 dropping glide bombs from outside Iranian border. Glide bombs can reach 70 miles inside Iranian territory.
So, after three weeks USAF and USN airforce will become paper tigers compared to their current bombing strength. Less bombs will be dropped and bombing sorties will become much more dangerous.
This illustrates that Trump has only 3 weeks to force Iranians to make a deal. Obviously, Iranians can do the math better them me and they are not going to negotiate.
If all remaining JASSM crusie missiles are wasted to obliterate Iranian power plants and oil&gas industry then there will be nothing left to support ground invasion. Yes, there will be still enough dumb bombs and glide bombs in three weeks but how will USAF hit targets 200 miles inside Iran?
This may mean that after 3 weeks there will even be no chance of ground invasion or naval attack to open Hormuz.
Three weeks later – Yankee go home? And that may be the reason why Commander-In-Tweet is so angry.
We just have to remind Iran to not shoot down any more F35’s because they’re invisible.
Yes, they’re done sandbagging.
What was a C-130 doing there?
On some other blogs, they suspect there was something more than “a pilot rescue”.
Supposedly C-130 carried fuel to refuel the helicopters.
Thanks.
They had deliberately landed in Iran before they were blown up
Yes, trump is looking increasingly unstable.

Thoughts of Great American Leaders : ‘Ich bin ein Berliner!’ … ‘Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!’ … ‘Open the the f’kin straits, you crazy bastards’… (before I commit another clear war crime against humanity; rocket gas prices off the charts; and collapse the global economy) … ‘Praise be to Allah’ … (the last mockturd sentence will likely have a unifying effect on both Sunni and Shia). This comparison helps to distinguish a Boll Weevil Fat White destructive Maggot from the preelection peace – low-inflation rhetoric Maga.
It may be a sign of both, but Trump has lost his mind for sure
I agree, it looks like Trump’s mental faculties have been going the way of Biden’s, but that is the LEAST important side of this story.
I wrote here on your very first article on this latest Judeo-American war of aggression that Operation Epstein Fury was gong to be the USA’s FAFO moment. And it is.
Ah this is a new one. It isn’t Trump that is impotent it is the US military. Ha! Good one!
You’ll insult the US military over daring suggest that this is Trumps fault.
Quite laughable to suggest that Russia is on the rise. They have lost most of their capability fighting Ukraine and are pulling 1950 and 1960s tanks out of mothballs. China certainly is rising, but still doesn’t have nearly the capability of the US at the moment.
Trump, Bibi and his cronies have lead the US into another unwinnable war. This isn’t the fault of the military. Trump is frustrated because he likes ‘winning’ and has the attention span of a toddler.
You are the epitome of the clueless American and with your types it’s a waste of time trying to argue the finer points so let’s just see if this happens:
Nobody would rather face the Red Army at present than in 2022.
It is much larger, better trained, better equipped, producing as much gear every quarter as the whole of NATO from Tallinl to San Diego, according to NATO top honcho Rutte.
As for NATO, it has been demilitarized.
the Red Army?
I always suspected that you were Chinese!
If the iranian regime survives, the civil war inside Israel will soon turn bitter. I would not be surprised if the religious jews put their trust on Russia and split the country into two followed by guerrilla war against their secular half. It will be a sight to watch Russian troops patrolling Jerusalem neighbourhoods with their allies from Iran. This has happened before. History rhymes, but with this lot, it will be just a repeat of what happened before.
Russia will not do such a thing. American troops will be in Jerusalem much sooner than Russian ones… Putin is pro-Israel, Russians as a whole are not and increasingly so like the rest of the world.
Watching Operation Epstein Fury and how Iran is showing the world how to deal with Clown World, Russian public opinion is very slowly starting to realize that Putin is too much of a pro-West, pro-Israel, liberal weak cuck and he will be watching his next steps carefully because also ever increasing factions of the General Staff are growing dissatisfied with his disastrous management (pussyfooting) of the NATO – Russia war in Ukraine.
Putin is afraid of still-powerful Jews in Russia. Not as much as Trump is controlled by Zionists in the US, but it’s similar. Also many Russian Jews in Israel have dual Russian-Israeli citizenship, and as a lawyer, he takes into consideration their nominal Russian-ness. Both the US and Russia should disallow dual citizenship. And yes, Putin has been far too trusting of the West and Israel.
Putin is a fantastic administrator and in many ways a Russian hero. Once he is gone they should (and they will) erect monuments to him, but he does have his many faults like everybody else.
The majority of the Russian oligarchs were (and are) Jewish, he has done A LOT to curb their influence and power and he could have done even more, ESPECIALLY NOW.
The problem is that he is genuinely pro-Jews… (and pro-West)
As for dual citizenship, my children are Italian-Russian dual citizens and I too am going to eventually ask for Russian citizenship (already got my Permanent Residency Permit) but I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree with you.
We are just exploiting the almost ubiquitous INSANE and suicidal current rules, which is the smart and rational thing to do…
Other people with uncompromising ethics and morals, like my wife, refuse to do it. All she wanted, for obvious practical reasons, was her (EU) Permanent Residency Permit in Italy after we got married and had children, she (who is from the Donbass) got her Russian citizenship as soon as it was possible and she put her Ukrainian passport at the bottom of the septic tank in our garden… LOL
“Led.”
China is rising. Russia only looks like it’s rising because the US is sinking so fast.
The average Russian is living better and better: real wages, infrastructure, quality of life, services… they are all getting better and better. The Russians (just like the Chinese) have never been more optimistic about the future than now (while the Americans, and the Westerners in general TBH, have never been so pessimistic).
So please define what’s “rising” to you and how Russia is not doing it (and keep in mind that I am witnessing this IRL and I am not in Moscow, S. Petersburg, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, Novgorod, Vladivostok or other major Russian cities).
That’s because they’re killing off the poor ones in Ukraine.
Let’s forget for a moment that what you just wrote does not make an ounce of sense: “Ukrainians” from the liberated parts of Ukraine (the Russian parts) are enjoying the same rise in living standards as the rest of the Russians. More actually (relatively to their starting point).
BTW, our apartment in a major Donbass city is now worth 7x what it was worth in 2022 and the Russians are bringing the city into the 21st century after it got stuck in 1991 like the rest of the so called Ukraine…
Know how averages work, dipshit?
I misunderstood your comment because I am so used to consider most of the “Ukrainians” Russians (many of them ALREADY are and many more of them will eventually get citizenship too)… Now that I realize what you were saying my answer is simply: all of the “poor ones” killed in the war are A COST, not a saving, you ignorant retard.
You would know that if you knew anything at all about today’s Russia and you knew all of the money and lifetime special benefits those men and the families of those men are receiving ESPECIALLY if they are killed or disabled like you.
And that’s not even taking into account the fact (which was a big surprise for the Russians themselves) that an outsized portion of the volunteers who keep on enlisting are from the richer and more “liberal” parts of the country: first and foremost Moscow and S. Petersburg. In particular, volunteering for the drone units (at least for a single tour) has become “cool” and “fashionable” among the well-off young IT professionals from those cities who are otherwise destined to a rich career in the booming private sector.
If you weren’t the ignorant retard that you clearly are I would also ask you HOW “killing off” the poorer men would benefit the economy when the biggest problem in the economy right now, which has been greatly constraining growth, is the LACK OF MANPOWER which they are trying to solve by importing other “poor men” from abroad…
But keep on watching and blindly believing the MSM, retard, and make the Western ruling class proud of you… You are the perfect citizen of Clown World: misinformed, disinformed, brainwashed and retarded.
It’s all biblically prophesized that a massive army from the kings of the East (China, Russia & Other Nations) shall march with a 200 million man army, (possibly with a million Android robots heavily armed) Into the Middle East.
Over the Euphrates River, that’ll be running dry.
Turkey has one of the world’s largest Dams at the head of the Euphrates River.
I wouldn’t be so concerned what Trump may or may not do. I’d be more concerned about preparing for the 3 1/2 year World Wide Nuclear War, where 1/3 of the world shall be destroyed
To include the US. According to biblical prophecy.
Now’s the Time to get Right with the Almighty.
It’s always the time to get right with the Almighty… 🙂
Rex was that you I saw on the downtown corner with the “Repent” sign?
“Hitler was a madman” !!!
Trump: “Hold my beer…”
It’s amazing that the head of the UN has remained silent during the past 6 weeks of the war in Iran. So different from when he was criticizing Israel over Gaza almost daily. I wonder why? 😁
Here’s his latest statement, from Thursday
https://news.un.org/en/story/2026/04/1167244
Trying to help you out of whatever echo chamber you’re trapped in, Jojo:
“ UN Secretary-General António Guterres has urgently demanded an immediate end to the war involving the US, Israel, and Iran, warning that the escalating conflict is “out of control” and risks a wider, catastrophic regional war. He urged the US/Israel to halt attacks and called on Iran to stop attacking neighbors, stressing a need for diplomacy.
Key Aspects of Guterres’ Statement:
“Stop the War”: Addressing the United States and Israel directly, he stated it is high time to end military actions that are causing immense human suffering, devastating economic consequences, and endangering global energy supplies.
Call to Iran: Guterres urged Tehran to stop attacking its neighbors and to stop threatening vital maritime routes like the Strait of Hormuz.
Warning of Wider War: He declared the Middle East is “on the edge of a wider war” and that the conflict has escalated beyond control.
Return to Diplomacy: He emphasized that “conflicts do not end on their own” and called on leaders to choose dialogue over destruction, urging a return to international law.
Immediate Action Needed: Guterres made these urgent calls in early April 2026, amid rising casualties and regional volatility.
Guterres’ statement reflects a deep concern over the expansion of the conflict and its potential to cause a “disaster” of global proportions”
But he doesn’t seem to be getting the media focus/coverage from the BBC, CNN and MSNOW that he was getting in the past, which is why I and likely many others have been missing the pleasure of watching his blood pressure rise while listening to him bloviating.
Are they afraid of being sued by Trump? Or is just that Israel isn’t in the forefront of the Iran attacks?
And if you are looking for an echo chamber, Mish’s commentariat has certainly turned into a libtard version.
Poor baby can’t admit he was wrong.
Unfortunately, too little too late.
Caligula
… but with a micropenis.
Mish’s propaganda identified by Grok as “Deliberate disinformation or partisan propaganda dressed up as “analysis.” The described behavior isn’t honest disagreement or even sloppy opinion. It’s starting with a predetermined conclusion (“Trump can’t handle this / has lost his mind / is unable to govern”) and then reverse-engineering support for it by citing falsehoods, then layering on more falsehoods to embellish the story. That’s not analysis; that’s narrative fabrication.” It’s the same tactic that shows up whenever a leader from the “wrong” team makes moves the commentator dislikes: don’t argue the merits of the Iran policy, just declare the guy crazy and broken. That’s not journalism or analysis; it’s activism with extra steps. If the analyst MISH genuinely believes their own embellished falsehoods, it’s motivated reasoning on steroids. If they know better, it’s straight-up propaganda. Either way, it erodes trust in “expert” commentary far more than it damages the target TRUMP. The public can see the gap between the hype and the actual track record.”
SEE MORE: Trump is “Crazy like a fox” an idiom describing someone who appears foolish, eccentric, or irrational but is actually acting in a shrewd, calculating, and cunning manner to achieve a goal. Trump may seem to act erratically but IS actually employing clever strategies to confuse threats. ON TAP, that means it is NOT Tuesday, 8:00 P.M. Eastern Time! FooL.
BAAAAAHAHAHAHA!
Good one.
Well, that settles something. I guess.
Praise be to Grok!
I sure hope you are right.
Grok Fact Check. Direct Reply to my Post
“Trump’s Truth Social post is confirmed across outlets including Reuters, WaPo, NYT, and Axios. Amid Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz—disrupting ~20% of global oil flows during active conflict—he’s issuing a deadline for reopening or face strikes on infrastructure. The profane phrasing and “Praise be to Allah” sign-off fit his unscripted style of maximum pressure, which supporters view as leverage and critics as overreach. Context: weeks of back-and-forth threats, denied negotiations, and rising energy costs.”

In Short – OPMoney is a liar
Mark Levin, is that you??
Just here for the ratio…
We know why you didn’t link for proof LOL
Wasn’t that the same omniscient LLM that said that Elon Musk could drink more piss than anyone ever, and his blowjob skills were even greater than Trump’s. I think it called Musk the “throat GOAT”.
Was that the LLM that you consulted? Yes, yes it was.
Grok or any other AI, is only as good as its trainers, perhaps with their own biases.

we’ve dropped tens of thousands of bombs, so when he threatens to.. drop bombs it doesn’t do much.
the problem is MAGA and the MAGA media verse supports him and attributes the military successes to him, like rescuing the downed pilot as if he had anything to do with that.
there is no getting through, eh could literally do anything and they’d support him.
his unhinged rants are truly scary and i alo hope the military refuses any truly bonkers and illegal orders.
Too late. Any that did were replaced with bootlickers.
If Trump has his way the next ones will be on infrastructure. Will be hard for 90 million people to feed themselves with no water, food or electricity. So those would in fact do a lot if they get dropped.
Millions of slow murders, and refugees showing up places that aren’t equipped for refugees follows.
Mass murder, from a safe distance.
At this point the bots in the comments look so fake it’s a wonder they’re still being run. “Iran’s golden years are just getting to the starting line” isn’t something a normal natural English speaker says, it doesn’t even flow right. Israel really has no option but to run the JIDF shills in these comments, let that sink in.
Anyone still defending this insanity should be held accountable if and when crazy in chief drops a nuke in a dementia fit. Impeachments? This nation is going to need tribunals.
