Trump uses expletive-ridden social media post to threaten Iran's infrastructure

Happy Easter morning

ahhhhnoooo

Truly evil behavior. And seeing this as the precedent is awful. Bombing civilian infrastructure is villainous. (But apparently par for the course for the US and Israel.)

Evangelicals looking teary-eyed at their AI-generated posters of Jesus and Trump holding hands in the peaceful, godly, profanity-free utopia of the USA in the year of our lord 2026.

The march to Idiocracy is accelerating. The serious and dangerous part is that Iran has already said that in the event of attacks on its power infrastructure, they will hit all of the power and desalination plants of all those who have assisted the USA/Israel coalition in this USA/Israel war against Iran. The USA has burned any ability to negotiate, probably forever for everyone, and Israel sinks deeper into becoming what it hates/d most.

Last time I checked the strait was open BEFORE the attack...

I realize this thread is already doomed [flagged], but we've gotten to the point where the frog is boiled. Everyone knows this type of behavior is completely unhinged, but nobody is willing to do anything about it. Aside from the most extreme MAGA in the House, we have some ridiculous -- never admit anything is wrong -- party loyalty precedent that is keeping this going. We're already in a bad place, and we are sleepwalking towards WW3, the loss of Taiwan (and a semi-conductor crisis), and even the potential for a nuclear exchange. The madman strategy doesn't work between two madmen, which is why this situation is just lunacy. An all out war with Iran may be the best option at this point, it's true, but the point is that the US Congress should be the institution to decide that, not just one man who is now stretching the credulity of the War Powers Act past any sense of a good-faith interpretation.
