Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Sunday, April 05, 2026

On this Easter, US President Trump makes taunting threats toward Iran, a nation he attacked without explaining what changed to spur him to war or building a coalition of allies or getting Congress' vote or even Congress' input before starting a war that is escalating daily.

This open threat of war crimes is pure sociopathic bloodlust and sadism but it's also another sign that he's failing and that he's in a fury about it.[image or embed]

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

And then there's the cold-case of that missing quart of strawberries still awaiting the application of Trumpian logic ...

Had to doublecheck this wasn't an Onion article. Praise be to Allah that it was not.

Also, "An Easter message from our first openly Muslim president" is just plain incorrect.

Obama was a "secret Muslim". Trump is the first one out of the closet.

Do MAGAts realize Trump could be on the verge of issuing an executive order declaring Sharia the law of the land?

As Dear Leader commands, they will obey. Just like the MAGAts learned to hate the FBI and love Russia.

If we don't use the 25th amendment now then what's the point of even having it

If bridge day and power plant day is anything like infrastructure week then Iran has nothing to be concerned about.

Iran just downed 2 US aircraft and now the President is telling them when and where we are going to attack next. I'm sure our pilots will sleep easy
