Maybe Trump believes if there's a war he can't be imprisoned.

"Trump waffles on Taiwan arms deal after Xi talks

President Trump said Friday he's unsure whether he would greenlight a planned $14 billion weapons package for Taiwan after discussing arms sales in "great detail" with Chinese President Xi Jinping."

"The Taiwan question is the most important issue in China-U.S. relations," Xi's spokesperson Mao Ning wrote on X.

"If it is handled properly, the bilateral relationship will enjoy overall stability. Otherwise, the two countries will have clashes and even conflicts, putting the entire relationship in great jeopardy."

Asked if that message had been conveyed as a threat, Trump told Baier:

"No it wasn't not at all, but it's always been the most important issue.

"It's not a take over, they just don't want to see this place " we'll call it a place, because nobody knows how to define it " but they don't want to see it go independent," he said."

Good that you mentioned that.

Trump backs Iran protesters, calls them 'brave people' (January 2026)
www.iranintl.com

... US President Donald Trump warned Iran's authorities against killing protesters amid nationwide demonstrations on Thursday, praising Iranians as "brave people."

Millions of Iranians took the streets across the country for a national rally called by exiled Prince Reza Pahlavi.

Trump told podcaster Hugh Hewitt that the Iranian leaders "have been told very strongly ... that if they do that, they're going to have to pay hell."

This is the third time since the start of protests on December 28 that Trump has warned Tehran not to kill demonstrators or face possible US intervention.

Addressing Iranians directly, he urged them to "feel strongly about freedom," and said: "There's nothing like freedom. You're brave people. It's a shame what's happened to your country."

Protesters in Iran have appealed directly to Trump for protection. Rights groups say at least 36 people have been killed since the protests began on December, while more than 2,000 people have been arrested or detained. ...

And the Mossad doesn't care that their throw-away assets in Iran are disposed of.


One would think an Iranian thinking of helping the Mossad might back out of it knowing that Tel Aviv won't lift a finger to help them.

Ukraine looks after their captured spies and will trade for them, like the US, UK, or Russia.
