Manic Trump, 80, Lashes Out at Everyone Trashing His Surrender in 4:32 A.M. Meltdown

3 days ago by sanitation to c/politics

The president’s long-awaited memorandum of understanding with Iran has come in for criticism from all sides.

If only he'd blame the one person truly responsible for this colossal embarrassment. Netanyahu.

He made Trump look like a pathetic, easily manipulated fool. The only way Trump could possibly save face at this point, would be to completely cut Israel off from all US support. (wink, wink)

I'd love to get an answer to that from the MAGAts who put Trump in power in the first place.

Netanyahu is also getting the backlash from his country and his allies for losing the war in Iran.

Why doesn't Nathan Yahoo put boots on the ground? Rough Iran a little bit. You know? A couple of nukes for good measure?

Ah yes, since you dropped your nukes while your troo....each person would want a turn, so it's best to just lean on a bed or couch and drop trouser. It will feel a little cold going in. But that's why I suggested to pull the troops out first and then nuke several times.

No need to wink, you're not far off there. He needs to put Israel in it's place, and that's likely the only way to do that.

We've shogged through so much bullshit and corruption in this country that we've made it all the way back to sanity.

TACO, though. He won't do it.

His dementia would have to severely deteriorate his mind to the point that he was completely different person for him to backtrack now.

He’s already been told that if the straight remains closed and the bombings continue that he risks a global depression, and Trump loves to talk trade. Surrendering is him trying to salvage what little he has left to lose.

He could change his mind on everything but this. This is where the stakes are too high and he can’t afford to lose anymore ground.

The ghouls surrounding him don't care about the US, or how much this costs it. They only care about money and since a large part of the stock market is disconnected from reality they gotta make it especially bad because Trump's Friday dump and Monday pump has stopped working.

Nah, some reporter will ask a simple question, and he'll go off about how tough he is, and Iran will do whatever he demands, or he'll clobber them, and they'll just quit the talks.

If I were them, every time he opens his mouth, I'd go silent for a month. Let him twist for a while, before coming back. In a year, maybe he'll learn to keep his mouth shut, but I doubt it.

More likely, he'll just run his mouth, acting like my stupid uncle at Thanksgiving, until Iran says " Fuck You," and walks away.

Iran doesn't really want this deal, they'd be happy to grind him through the Midterms. They're throwing him a bone, but he'll be too stupid and arrogant to understand that, and they'll eventually pull their charity and go home.
