Here's a recap of Trump's remarks on Saturday night, in which he threatened to strike Iranian power plants if Tehran does not "fully open" the strait of Hormuz within 48 hours.

Writing on Truth Social, Trump said:

If Iran doesn't FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST!"

@#1 ... aka The Rage Posting War ...

It is beginning to look more and more as if Pres Trump is acting as if he were boxed in a corner with few options.

So,he seems to be raging, not thinking.

Looks like Pfc Bone Spurs hasn't met a war crime he won't enthusiastically embrace.
Kind of like when he mindlessly and enthusiastically dry ""(starts with an "h," rhymes with "jumps") our flag.
