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

It isn"t pathetic, that is what people were subjected to and many had had enough, the other candidate was complicit ( along with the media ) in trying to downplay the health issues, absolutely no surprise that Trump won.

No its pathetic. You are incorrect.
The mere fact that you are still spouting this bs in the face of what trump is at is pathetic.

Too late for all that, Iran is going to do massive damage now, the U.S/Israel view will be that they need to be stopped from doing it.

You know the best way to stop someone from hitting you back?

Don't hit them first.

I'd say, rather, that it is irrelevant.

Or at least, it has sfa to do with Trump's ever-increasing derangement.

I saw an Iranian woman on Sky news ( she lived in London and left Iran many years ago) saying that the bombing and some civilian deaths was a "necessary" cost to get freedom.

Well of course she's cool with it. She lives in London.

This animal is very wicked:
Just see what happens if you kick it.

This beast is very mean: in fact
It will fight back, when it’s attacked.

That"s what I thought, but plenty of people thought the original idea of attacking Iran was OK and necessary, the panic has started because people are waking up to how much it affects our economy.

You agree then that Trump is evil with his latest posts?

Coffeeandbooks88 · 07/04/2026 19:03

There needs to be an age limit to be president I think. I know there is an lower limit but there needs to be an upper one too.

I was just thinking the exact same. 75 is way old enough.

I agree. A lower limit to try to ensure some life experience and an upper one for all the obvious reasons: physical energy, cognitive power etc.

People are living longer now but aren't necessarily physically or mentally fit in extreme age.

Maybe even 65. My husband said this should apply for MPs as well.

To be very clear - while it would still be an extremely grave act and a tragic, unjustifiable loss of civilian lives - were another "9/11" inflicted upon the US in the wake of Trump's actions, I imagine there'd be a strong undercurrent of "well, what did you expect?" to the global reactions.

Were another nation carrying out these acts and making threats of war crimes, it'd be (rightly) viewed as a rogue state.

The damage to the US's reputation is irreparable, and its traditional allies simply have to view it as a threat to their interests and the wider safety of the world.

We can still work with the US on mattes truly within our joint interests, but can never again be reliant upon them, and need to take aggressive steps to reduce its influence on national defence and our economies.

Indeed. What utter stupidity to make any comment about Allah. I can genuinely see him being shot or murdered if he doesn't shut his trap.

But I suspect Trump will escape the assassin's bullet and lots of us will get it in the neck from the subsequent terror attacks etc etc.

And from the financial disaster he's caused.

Iran is/was a horrible regime but you don't stir up a hornets' nest unless you're an idiot.

Or is that Putin’s preferred puppet? Trump is so far up Putin’s backside that Vladdy the Baddy probably produces orange poo 🙄

No, but you can"t fall down ( and also UP one time!) the stairs of the presidential plane when you land in other countries, you just can"t do that as "leader of the free world". It is very obvious why Trump got elected, not sure why people are trying to pretend it was some sort of crazy fluke or accident?

Jesus wept 😄. Trump is all over the Epstein files, had 41 fraud convictions before being elected, engineered the storming of the capitol where AOC and Nancy Pelosi were hunted down by maniacs stalking the halls (they were unsuccessful, thank God) all while a noose hung outside...and said he could grab women by the pussy, and people still voted for him.

Yet you think 'its obvious' why people voted for him, because theres a couple of video clips of Biden stumbling.

You're either brainwashed or you love seeing fraudsters and sexual offenders succeed, or both.
