He was clearly stating U.S. cities would have been threatened if a nuclear Iran hadn’t been stopped.

He clearly was not. But by all means, invite him to clarify. Stop speaking for him.

    I've heard a lot of people saying that, but these people fail to realize that he said it in front of cameras. We have the quote, I've gone over it dozens of times and I can't get any meaning out of it besides "Iran can blow up San Diego and Los Angeles and I wouldn't care."

    I mean if you wanted to give a charitable interpretation it could be simply that there would be swift retribution and they would regret it. Like "oh I wish you would punch me" or something. So, yeah, let him clarify, but he simply won't, because that's not what he meant.

    Honestly Trump has a lot in common with The Bible in that he and God both speak a bunch of fucking word salad gibberish and we're all left alone to try to interpret WTF he just said because he refuses to clarify.

  • I don't care what he says and haven't for many years. I care that he rapes children and has still not been held accountable.

    Did he just name the two cities of his flase flag so he can declare martial law by midterms?

    Maybe this that surprise that he says they have planned. He going create flase flag in both cities and blame Iran and use it to cancel the elections.

    I suspect he's just itching to use nuclear weapons to be strong and stable and genius, being too stupid to understand why it's is a bad idea.

    The rest of his executive are also bloodthirsty fascists and probably don't actually have a problem sacrificing some "libs" or "commies" or whatever for their greater good apocalypic religious ravings.

    Didn't even think it be nuclear weapons, but your not wrong he suggested and seriously wanted to use a nuke to stop a hurricane. You remember it the one defaced a weather projection map with a sharper when they refuse to draw it going the way he had said it will go. If he can't stay in power I definitely see him using a nuke on his way out the door.

    This loser thinks he bothered the Libz with that nonsense, so he doubled down to piss them off more. He's too stupid to understand that it pissed off his own side, too.

    He lost everybody but his own loyalists long ago, and now he's on the edge with his own people. Every time he says something outrageous like that, it doesn't make a difference with the Left, they're long gone anyway, but it does make a difference with his own side, and they don't like it.

    French here. Flabbergasted at the fact he and his goons have not been impeached/choppity-chopped yet.

    Our government has been largely captured by people whose loyalty is to, in this order:

    1. Themselves
    2. Their party
    3. America (sometimes further down the list)

    That is the problem.

    Flabbergasted? Why?

    America is a spineless and complacent country full of ineffective limp-dick, do-nothing cowards that are happy to keep status quo if it means they don’t have to exert any effort.

    Today I saw Jamie Raskin lamenting that Trump has damaged US alliances globally. While, sure, Trump has been bad, voting in a Democrat isn't going to restore everything. The American public can always vote in another dangerous demagogue and I think the world has realised that.

    Let them hit Mar-a-Lardo?

    I think Dump is banking on more Americans having insane rightwing California Derangement Syndrome and I don't think most Americans really have that, just the weird freaks that adore people like him.

    1 out of 8 people in us live in California. That’s 12.5% of the population.

    And they get 2 senators, same as the 0.172% of Americans living in Wyoming. The US needs constitutional reforms in so many ways.

    Indeed. It borders on the absurdly ridiculous. I'm not sure the founders, even when they were trying to balance the interests of slave states anticipated such a wild imbalance of having one state having 67 times the number of people in another state.

    The first time had enough plausible deniability that he meant it in a "See what happens" type of way.

    I still think that is the most reasonable interpretation of his statements but he's intentionally playing into the media to keep the debate going. Letting people hear what they want to hear; Those that want to believe he meant the bad version (either because they like the message; or want to be mad about it) will hear that way. Those that want to believe he meant the innocent version will believe that.

    It's just very sick. What a disgusting terrorist.

    another way to look at it is he's inviting attacks and giving plausible deniability to our enemies - because anything that happens in the coming months, people will wonder if it's a false flag done by his crooked admin FIRST before anyone else.

    trump: I don’t give a shit if Iran kills Americans on U.S. soil!

    The White House: it’s not treason, he means gas prices.

    Robots: It’s not treason he meant gas prices.

    Press: It’s not treason he means gas prices.

    trump: I wanna do treason muhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Republicans clean up your fucking pedophile king and stop ripping America apart. Assholes.

    Hello Americans! Today it's totally fine and normal for your president to spins wheel ... invite Iran to bomb progressive cities! Hooray.

    The MAGats know that he's a human cesspool, but they'll come up with excuses so they don't have to admit how awful he is.

    I saw a dozen posts yesterday where apologists were saying it was just a joke or he was being misunderstood.

    MAGats don't wanna admit that they themselves were wrong... or I should say, they don't want to have to hide their heinousness again. They don't give a fuck about how awful trump is, they just don't wanna feel like people think their awful/outcast, because they don't know how to reconcile. Doubling down is what angry cowards do

    What fucking President of the United States would say this? This man is a corrupt, incompetent, dangerous fool. That people voted for!

    He had to prove all those sociopaths, who were running cover for him claiming he meant something else, wrong I guess... Slow Clap

    It's not doubling down, but rather claiming all of a sudden that it would be a bad thing. Nazi cronies originally excused it as "the left can't take a joke" because tone/words seemed to obviously welcome it.

    California happens to be one of the safer distance-wise places from Iran missile range. Even if a missile from Iran could reach California, one with a heavier bomb would reach eastern sea board, or Israel.

    Fundamentally, peace with Iran is the logical conclusion from this phantom fear. Instead of continuation of illegal permawar. Massively other negative consequences well within Iran demonstrated capability occur as a result of permanent war/oppression of Iran. Zero benefit to Americans.

    I questioning if there's going to be some false flag attack in these cities just before midterms?

    Also, this treasonous pos needs to be put down in a prison hole.
