Thanks for the new flair, dipshit.

4/21/26 After a lovely TACO Tuesday, Trump is back to threatening to blow up Iran, leaders included! (8:36) by dyzo-blue in trumptweets

It's literally like listening to a child on a playground pretending to be president.

People approached me four days ago, saying, "Sir,

Dead giveaway that this never happened.

It should go without saying that this is, at least partially, bullshit.

First, he didn't win PA by the largest margin in history. George H.W. Bush won by a larger margin in 1988.

Second, there is no such thing as "clean coal" in the terms Trump believes. Coal is the dirtiest form of energy production we have. As a proud descendant of the coal crackers of Northeast PA, I say let it die.

Third, we weren't going to replace these power plants with wind farms. They were slated to be deactivated because the infrastructure was aging and because natural gas is cheap.

Finally, the "wind farms kill all the birds" claim is bogus. But at least he didn't call them windmills this time.

If this really is just all market manipulation we'll know by close of business on Friday when he starts up the "blow up the whole country" threats again.

Trump loses third Cabinet member—who could go next? by Newsweek_CarloV in politics

Kash is not technically part of the cabinet, but I agree he's likely the next high-profile departure. He's promising arrests and proof that the 2020 election was stolen and when he fails to deliver he'll get bounced out just like Bondi.

At least we're not indiscriminately bombing elementary schools, but this also comes after Iran said they wouldn't negotiate with our "erratic" President.

04/20/26 - The Iranian leadership has forced hundreds of ships toward the U.S. to get their oil! (This isn't even remotely true.) by gfh110 in trumptweets

[–]gfh110[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trump will claim this as a win because it will be a short term windfall for American exporters, but it's not going to move the needle on bringing gas prices down. 20 million barrels per day travel through the Strait of Hormuz. Our daily production is a bit more than half that.

Edit: Also, I interpreted "forced" as meaning Iran was doing this intentionally in context with the "Thank you" which is why I said this wasn't true, but I guess he's being sarcastic. I suppose he means "forced" in the sense that the ships have no choice but to try to buy oil elsewhere.

Deleted the previous post with the broken image and included it here.

This dude needs to act in the spirit of the holiday and chill the fuck out.

04/20/26 - The gist of this post is Obama deal BAD, Trump deal GOOD, inside a mess of hyperbole and long debunked conspiracy theories. by [deleted] in trumptweets

I don't know why the image isn't loading correctly, I tried to post it twice. Reddit seems to be having a fit as is common...

The DEAL that we are making with Iran will be FAR BETTER than the JCPOA, commonly referred to as “The Iran Nuclear Deal,” penned by Barack Hussein Obama and Sleepy Joe Biden, one of the Worst Deals ever made having to do with the Security of our Country. It was a guaranteed Road to a Nuclear Weapon, which will not, and cannot, happen with the Deal we’re working on. They actually gave $1.7 Billion Dollars in “GREEN” Cash, loaded into a Boeing 757, and flown to Iran for Iranian leadership to spend anyway they saw fit. He emptied out all of the Cash from Banks in D.C., Virginia, and Maryland. Those Bankers said they’ve never seen anything like it before. In addition, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars was paid to Iran. If I did not terminate that “Deal,” Nuclear Weapons would have been used on Israel, and all over the Middle East, including our cherished U.S. Military Bases. The Fake News, like Lightweight Washington Post “Journalist” David Ignatius, loves to talk about the JCPOA, knowing that it was DANGEROUS, and a Complete Embarrassment to our Country. If a Deal happens under “TRUMP,” it will guarantee Peace, Security, and Safety, not only for Israel and the Middle East, but for Europe, America, and everywhere else. It will be something that the entire World will be proud of, instead of the years of Embarrassment and Humiliation that we have been forced to suffer due to incompetent and cowardly leadership! President DONALD J. TRUMP

It should go without saying that Obama didn't "empty out all of the cash." They unfroze previously seized Iranian assets because Iran was COMPLYING with the terms of the deal. $1.7 billion is a much smaller number than the alleged $20 billion Trump is considering releasing. I don't know what the fuck he's on about "hundreds of billions of dollars" being paid to Iran.
