Tumps exact words today!

WTAF? That sounds like he is about to drop a Nuke!

How the hell has the world got here?

Trumps truth social posts sounds more like something that a dramatic gleeful tv presenter would say in a game show. Not something a world leader threatening to blow up an entire civilisation.

I knew there would be some amusing reactions on here 😂he's negotiated for a living it's all a game peeps stop panicking 😂

Quite 😂, almost everyone on here is so hysterical about what Trump will do. He won’t be dropping a nuke but will be taking out the Iranian terrorist regime for good.

Yep utter nonsense like the idea of only having the death penalty for Palestinians in Israel, nonsense like bombing hospitals and schools in Gaza, nonsense like not letting journalists in to Gaza because we care so much about their lives, nonsense like illegal settlements that we can’t question, nonsense like the IDF soldiers committing endless war crimes without any reproach, nonsense like this illegal war done for freeing the Iranian people…

I thought they have recently brought in the death penalty for terrorists? Most ME countries have the death penalty ( for all sorts of random things) I don’t think it’s specific as to race/ religion. Unless you think all Palestinians are terrorists.

I think the Islamic Regime in Iran is incredibly dangerous ( funding numerous terrorists as well as murdering Iranian people at will) but Trump is not the leader to tackle this, clearly.

and in this case iran started it with developing nukes

Or Trump started it by tearing up the JCPOA.

Haven’t you learnt not to be trolled by what Trump says yet?

At it's most basic form this is not "trolling" here in Dublin today we've had our main city centre thoroughfare shut down all day causing traffic chaos over fuel prices, granted compared to nuclear warfare it pales in significance but to say it's all bluster or whatever is really missing the greater ramifications

We voted for brexit and Boris Johnson.

We can't claim any moral high ground.

But at least we saw the light and got rid of Johnson within three years of electing him. The Americans actually voted him back in after getting rid of him the first time round.

I am sure the people of Iran would appreciate your 😂 right now. There are mumsnetters who are terrified for their friends and family in Iran, I am sure they are also appreciating the 😂. Have some bloody respect.

Edited

Agreed. And not just Iran but neighbouring countries. The US has just put out a shelter in place alert in Bahrain. We have friends in the middle East and friends in the US military.

I seem to have to tell people this twice a day nowadays.

Ignore EVERYTHING Trump says.

listen to everything Trump DOES.

They are two very very different things.

Regardless of what he DOES. It's worth almost any price to make sure Iran never has nuclear weapons, up to and including a ground invasion and mild recession.

Iran nuking Tel Aviv, which they absolutely would, would destabilise the planet for the next 50 years. This short term pain will be worth it if it all works out and it probably will.

DoubledDownSecrecy · 07/04/2026 15:44

Basically the US is totally in charge of who is allowed what. They decide and they may move the goalposts as to what they think is acceptable at any point. They also can decide to invade and take over anywhere they like just because they particularly fancy some natural resources that place has or some kind of potential military advantage they want.

LOL, that has worked so well for them in the past?

Why is everyone blaming trump ? if iran commits the crimes of trying to develop nukes etc then surley the blame is with the criminal ? and the countys leaders ?

Because he started this, it was illegal and unnecessary.

And also because he is a cunt, and deserves the blame for this and much much more…

TheseWordsAreMine · 07/04/2026 15:56

Remember all of those Russian suitcase nukes that are still unaccounted for?

user976532456 · 07/04/2026 15:57

No. Sanctions were in place even under the treaty, although subject to different legal scrutiny, and more could have been imposed.

He did it because he's a moron. He's jealous of Obama. He listens to Netanyahu.

The "news" are trying to spin away from this now, SKY are going deep on student loan interest, who cares! They were babbling about the moon a lot the last couple of days but soon won"t be able to do that, this war is going to cause massive consequences for people with debt in the UK and they don"t want to talk about it!

dentalflosser · 07/04/2026 15:57

Trump is a prize twat who is a loose cannon. All he has done is aggravate different countries with his ridiculous sanctions, tariffs, war and threats. He needs removing from power as he’s dangerous.
I don’t think he is of sound mind at all. He acts like a petulant child and I was furious seeing memes for him at Easter as having risen again like our Lord. Risen like Satan is more apt!

Are you normally this divorced from reality? Of course he won't take out the regime, it's got millions of supporters. What Trump is doing is in fact gifting them one of the best recruitment incentives they could possibly have hoped for. If you were a young man in Iran whose family had been killed and who had been bombed out of his home by US planes, just how grateful would you be feeling right now towards the US?

HaveYouHadYourBreak · 07/04/2026 15:18

I actually do think there are people stopping him from going as far as he wants to. I have no doubt that the only reason he hasnt dropped the bomb is because there are people (who make him money) stopping him. He is incapable of managing himself and understanding the consequences of his actions. I dont think he will use nuclear weapons but he'll have talked about it behind closed doors.

Nobody's stopping him. They agree with him!

He was actually a really shitty businessman too, despite the reputation.

He Went bankrupt a few times didn't he? All daddy's money and he dodged the draft too which is odd for such a warmonger
