Are you concerned that Trump has totally lost his marbles?

Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Whilst the foul language is unstatesmanlike and an unfortunate example of the continuing decline in standards in the West, President Trump is to be admired for the efforts, thus far, against a genocidal regime. The USA needs to remove it entirely, however. The President is also to be admired for putting the interests of his own people first.

Admired?????????. ODFOD.

He’s totally and utterly deranged and so are the people who voted for him.

The only hope now is that Europe take up Iran’s offer of opening up the strait on the condition that they trade only in euros.

I hope this is the end of the petrodollar and the GC shut every American air base that exists in the Middle East.

For decades they’ve terrorised the world and I hope to God everyone is waking up and seeing them for what they are.

I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts discussing this conflict and the overwhelming consensus seems to be there was no real plan. There was obviously a frame work, but the Americans seemed to have assumed it was going to go like Venezuela and just massively underestimated the leverage Iran has with plunging the world into a global recession off the back of their restrictions over who can use the Strait of Hormuz.

The problem with Trump is he isn’t great at back pedalling. Given the options of grovelling and deescalating or blowing the whole thing to smithereens I fully anticipate he will do the latter. There are nuclear weapons that aren’t big bombs that blow the world to pieces but are still nuclear grade. I wouldn’t put it past him to use something like this. I know the argument is does he have a condition like Alzheimer’s or Dementia? I don’t think so. If I were going to guess at anything it would be psychopathy.

There's nothing to say it can't be both.

What is it with the enormous AI generated posts that go on about 'diaper-level noise'?

Has anyone else noticed the dramatic shift in tone of mumsnet replies?

Wait, so Iran will allow free passage to oil paid for in Euros?
That's a straight up yes please.

Not with Trump you don’t. Trump’s entire modus operandi is to descend to the level of cheap insults at every opportunity. Americans who voted for him were voting for a man who has never been patriotic in his life, he’s just a narcissistic, corrupt opportunist who knows what to say to disaffected people to get votes, but will never achieve what he promised, because he’s a chaotic arsehole.

Doteycat · 05/04/2026 23:15

The days of america being a leader are gone.

nocoolnamesleft · 05/04/2026 23:20

I'm not convinced he ever had the full complement of marbles, but he seems to have lost the few he had.

GB news were saying that the bases were being used right from the get go and that KS lied to the UK public about this?

GB News? 🤣🤣🤣 oh yes that bastion of professional journalism. How funny.

If the Iran mission had led to an uprising and the overthrow of that regime he would now be a global superstar hero and this thread wouldn"t exist. Maybe he genuinely wants to stop their nuclear ambition, his ego prevents him acknowledging losses and setbacks though, a good political leader needs to be able to do that, this isn"t a TV show.

There’s a lot more wrong with what Trump and his regime have been doing than just Iran. He would NOT be a superstar, certainly not to anyone affected by unemployment, ICE, abortion bans, etc.

Me Thinks she has been on Chat GPT !

There’s a fair few older right wing supporters of Trump and Farage that have recently discovered ChatGPT. They just copy and paste the whole reply without even attempting to analyse what the points are.

Or paid for in Yuan. This could unravel the whole Ponzi scheme of US Treasury Bills. Good riddance in one way. But our grandchildren will be worse off than we ever were. If only Europe was united and put a stop to their gallop back in 2003.

He is turning the United States into a genocidal regime in front of your very eyes and still you can't see it.

There is nothing to be admired about the actions of a dangerously unhinged psychopath, and even less to be admired about the unforgivable cowards who continue to allow him free rein.

Ah, offended by a strong, powerful, brown woman. Not surprised by you at all.

Do you think that the Artemis mission was so timed because of the shit show that is Trump Vs The World?

Bc on the news it's like: Hello, here is war torn country after country, and terrible images of decimated land and displaced and murdered people, but now for our second item oh look, here's the Mooooooon ooh look everyone look up there, not at that stuff, look here ----> 🌕

[NB don't pile on me, I admire the astronauts etc, what I am saying is that's how it feels rn]

Hi Kemi, you think Starmer is deranged? No but Trump is. Are you still supporting the war against Iran?

I think it is more likely that Trump timed his war to stop people talking about the Epstein files
