@#3 ... "What do you think about "[sending] them back to the Stone Age where they belong"?

Before Pres Trump started his war against Iran, the people of Iran had a mostly positive view of the United States, it was the Iranian leadership that despised the US.

So now, why is Pres Trump threatening to send the people of Iran back to the stone age?

Are Pres Trump's actions against Iran effectively convincing the Iranian people that their hard-line leadership was correct?

Trump's profanity-laced post: (you fill in the blanks)

"Open the f*****g Straits you crazy b*****ds or you'll be living in Hell."

As a result, the Senate is now talking 25TH Amendment! Trump has finally flipped out.

That post also included war crimes he intends to use to drive Iran back to the Stone Age.

Trumpanzee is mad at Western Europe because back in January, France and the UK formed a 35-nation "Coalition of the Willing" for taking the LEADERSHIP ROLE in world affairs and helping defend Ukraine from Russian aggression.

So he started a war with Israel against Iran.

He is demanding that Europe stop what they are doing and pay attention to his war. His war is more important because his war is about oil. Oil is money.

Europe's focus is on helping a nation maintain its sovereignty; the USA is talking about taking away a nation's sovereignty. Iran won't go quietly. Republicl0wns thought they had this figured out 72 years ago when they upended Iran's first foray into democracy.

Putin has his grimy little mitt waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay way way way up Trumpanzee's fudge-chute.

Meanwhile... China is making bank... servicing our debts. Seems they are building a toll booth... that accepts only Yuan... and making the USA pay for it.

*** After Dummkopf Trumpf's Threats Against Iranian Infrastructure, Israel Attacks Major Center ***

"Israel says it has hit a major Iranian petrochemical site, which it claims produces half of Iran's petrochemical output."

Meanwhile the price of aviation fuel has doubled and airlines are canceling flights:

"First, the illegal and reckless war against Iran made flights more expensive. Now, it's making them disappear."

Thanks, AIPAC! See you at the polls on Tuesday 3 Nov 2026.

*** USSS Investigating Shots Fired Last Night Near White House ***

"The USSS was investigating reports of overnight gunfire near Lafayette Park, which is across the street from the White House.

No injuries were reported and no suspect was found after a search of the park and the surrounding area after midnight.

Dummkopf Trumpf was vegetating and decomposing at the White House over the weekend, which had no immediate comment on the incident. White House operations remained incompetent and moribund as normal, but security in the area was increased."
