To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!

[Takket]

1. Wait I thought this was the NFL's week to be boogeyman?

Now we are back to Iran again?

[Funtatlaguy]

76. Best line ever. Not sure where I saw this.

I’ll worry again about football players taking knees once Trump gets off of his for Putin.

[LuvLoogie]

2. Sounds like Stephen Miller to me.

[C_U_L8R]

3. This putz is unfit.

It'd be funny if he wasn't armed with nukes.

[lastlib]

34. Isn't threatening violence a violation of Twitter's TOS?

Grounds for locking an account?

41. Twitter only sees $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ in that tweet.

[oldtime dfl_er]

49. LOCK IT UP

and then lock him up

[uponit7771]

[Ms. Toad]

87. Report it. It can't hurt.

[barbtries]

105. i did.

i've done it before but it changed nothing. but maybe some day there will be enough for twitter to look.

[brush]

59. Turns out he's nothing but words. Putin and Un both punked him.

[jmowreader]

90. Un is his first name

Or what would be his first name if he was a Westerner. In North Korea, the first of your three names is your family name. (Kim is the most popular one. Old American GI joke: the easiest job in the Korean Army is calling roll. The sergeant yells “Private Kim,” the entire company yells “here” and the sergeant’s work is done for the day.) The second name is your generational name. He has one brother and one sister. All of them have the syllable Jong in their names, his sister has it as her third name because that’s what they do. The third name (second for girls) is your personal name.

[forgotmylogin]

4. This is reckless, unilateral behavior unbecoming of a President. (n/t)

[Turbineguy]

103. "unilateral"

Can Trump even spell that? Does he know what that word means?

7. He is having a mental breakdown

This recklace behavior must end. He need to be removed from office. The country can’t function.

8. The Netanyahu, Bolton, Orange Syphilis - Iran War will be coming soon.

[nmgaucho]

9. That fucking nut is unhinged

He would like nothing more than to start a war to take the focus off of Mueller's investigation

[smirkymonkey]

15. I think you are right. He is completely unhinged and looking for anything

to distract from the investigation and his treasonous behavior. It's in all caps which makes me thing he is completely losing it. I knew it was only a matter of time before he started to threaten Iran.

He needs to be removed from office immediately. He is a threat to the entire planet.

[GReedDiamond]

10. Attn: Congress (aka Repukes) CLEANUP ON AISLE 25th 'mendment...

Report
Iran’s Hollow Threats to Close the Strait of Hormuz
Tehran is again trying to use its hold over a key global choke point to pressure Washington and others. But it’s much easier said than done.
By Keith Johnson | May 5, 2016, 3:12 PM

<snip>

The latest Iranian threats echo previous vows to close the Strait of Hormuz, such as those that spooked oil markets in early 2012. Then, however, Iran threatened to slam shut the strait to any oil tankers destined for global markets. In the end, after pushback from U.S. military and diplomatic officials — as well as a stern warning from China’s then-premier, Wen Jiabao — Iran backed off its confrontational rhetoric. It underscored how the saber-rattling is a lot easier said than done.

“Threats are easy to make,” said Anthony Cordesman, a defense analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. But Iran’s naval strategy calls for deployment across the breadth of the Persian Gulf, not to bottle up vulnerable forces in a narrow body of water.

“People keep referring to ‘closing the strait.’ But we’ve got eight years of Iranian exercises that show that’s more an exercise in semantics, than the way Iran organizes to fight. Given the fact that it’s not particularly suicidal, concentrating its assets in the Strait of Hormuz makes no sense at all,” he said.

<snip>


The Iranian patrol boats are no match for the US Navy. Period. They make this threat literally every other year or so. They have never shut it down and when they do the USN keeps it open.

Suicide boats are a terrible way to conduct a military operation. They just don't work.

[hibbing]

16. I see he's waving his small _____ around again, how pathetic

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

17. I wish the responses to these rage-tweets would be something like,

"Whatever."

or

"Are you done yet?"

or

"You do know we follow your Twitter account just for amusement, don't you?"

[Leghorn21]

23. I liked this one, Ocelot:

To the White House staff: NEVER, EVER BE LATE
DELIVERING MY BEDTIME MCDONALD'S ORDER AGAIN
OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF
WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED

I wouldn't trust him with a phone!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

31. I wouldn't trust him with a wooden spoon.

[vercetti2021]

20. I'll just leave this here

35. I'll add to that:

67. I want this on t shirts and bumper stickers. nt

22. If you translate that to Enlish it says ... My attorneys just informed me that I will die in prison

[Doodley]

24. This is the way international diplomacy is conducted - through Trump ranting on Twitter

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

26. He's got that Nobel Peace Prize in the bag now!

[PoorMonger]

27. Days before the Manafort trial begins...

He latches on to any conflict he can find and unhinged from everything threatens WW3.

Yup sounds like Donnie feels the walls closing in like never before. If he had anything left it is surely in shreds tonight.

Buckle up y’all. This is gonna be a batshit crazy week. It is time to start talking straight jacket and the 25th for this national disgrace. He only has so many cards left to play and he’s obviously willing to take the world into war just to save his own sorry ass from the consequences of his actions.

[MyOwnPeace]

91. But..........

who's gonna' begin the legislative process for the 25th?

McTurtle and Cubby won't do shit - they're getting everything they wanted for their 1%!

[AlexSFCA]

28. trumpian diplomacy

[torius]

29. Imagine if he could change the fonts

it would be Comic Sans all the way to doomsday. Sigh.

[Totally Tunsie]

33. If it's any consolation, he probably couldn't find Iran on a map.

[sheshe2]

36. All those caps.

So angry. Strokes a comin'. It is only a matter of time.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

37. Well, at least Susan Sarandon

92. THESE........

need to be posted EVERYWHERE!!!!

The world needs to see what a horse's ass he truly is (as if most didn't already know by now!).

Wouldn't it be wonderful if a serious White House correspondent would ask Sarah Fuckabee to explain all of these?

[defacto7]

40. The dominionists are salivating....

Armageddon and Jesus is coming....

They want the war.

[NBachers]

42. Good luck building a strong coalition of dependable allies. Looks like this one's on us!

[riversedge]

84. I believe Israel would join us??

[Mira]

44. At a time like this

I simply can’t believe he does not drink.
And then I remember the snorts during the debates. Do you?

[LuckyLib]

61. Yes. I've always thought he is downing multiple medications.

He is seriously disturbed, and Congress just sits on their hands.

[dalton99a]

45. Yeah, same ol' fire and fury like the world has never seen

DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH

[brush]

65. He threatened Rocket Man Un with similar words then turned around...

got punked at that so-called NK summit.

Un is still laughing at how gullible the "great negotiator" was at believing his promise to de-nuclearize.

[mac56]

47. See below

[PatrickforO]

48. What the heck?

Wow. Yeah, a Republican president is in trouble. The jaws of justice are closing around his ankles. He is increasing unpopular at home. He is under lots of pressure from his party to back off some stupid policy decisions.

What to do?

Hey, I've got it! Let's have a nice war!

Every fucking time the people begin to wake up and start winning some rights and talking about using THEIR tax money to do things that actually make their lives better, the big capitalists decide on a war. Because, hey, they will win no matter what. Wars produce lots of profits if you know they are coming, and definitely if you engineered them.

Let's NOT let that happen this time.

[Midnight Writer]

50. Geez, you'd almost think Iran had thousands of missiles aimed at us and was hacking our systems.

[DesertRat]

51. Such a tough guy at home on Twitter

Stand him along side a dictator and he’ll call him “very strong”, “smart”, “tough”, etc.

[Kablooie]

52. This may be what we've always feared. The war that will keep him in power.

I'll bet he has a desire to start a war and has been looking for an excuse.

If we are in an actual war, Russia news will take a back burner and it will be very difficult to remove him.

After this can Rouhani just roll over? He would be shamed. How can he respond?

Trump may have just gotten his wish and a real, and totally unnecessary, war may be coming soon.

This is what we've always feared and I fear that it is here.

[DallasNE]

53. This Is Beyond Reckless

And all of the way to insane. Time to invoke the 25th Amendment.

[Honeycombe8]

58. Aren't Iran & Russia friends? Trump's going to get us into a war. Watch. nt

[AdamGG]

62. I fear this is why he brought in Bolton & Pompeo

They were complying with a treaty and allowing international inspection in a way that North Korea NEVER would. This may be exactly the war that Trump and Netanyahu want. We need a Democratic Congress sworn in in January to restrain him with some resolutions, if it can wait until then.

[C Moon]

63. Apparently, Trump needs his 911.

[homegirl]

64. Trump is a madman

amd it is time for the GOP to admit it and remove him, just as they did with Nixon.

75. Again its very telling about trump

He knows putin attacked this country yet can't do enough to please him , and acts welcoming after he knows he's still attacking us, doing nothing but looking for things to do for him, even meeting him , and having another meeting and inviting him tinto the White House when he knows he's murdered people in the UK. HE doesn't put a ban on russians. Yet the Iran leader he's talking trash to him with threats. HE never threatened putin? HE NEVER said lets ban all russians until we get to the bottom of whats going on, or threatened him even after his nuclear display shows his missiles heading towards Florida? More very clear signs trump is a russian asset for putin.
