I guess he couldn’t find a movie star to threaten yesterday so he came up with this:
Hay MAGA? Did you vote for this? Trump is threatening war against Iran now because the government is repressing protests. I’m guessing he figures nobody will remember that he wanted to shoot the George Floyd protesters and was talked out of it. (I think we can be pretty sure that if such a thing were to happen today, no one would try to stop him.)

Other details he won’t concern himself with: How will an attack help Iranians who are protesting because Iran’s economy is in the shitter? If he kills members of Iran’s leadership, who will take their place? Also, what will the neighbors think?
Shortly after, Ali Larijani, a former parliament speaker who serves as the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, alleged on the social platform X that Israel and the U.S. were stoking the demonstrations. He offered no evidence to support the allegation, which Iranian officials have repeatedly made during years of protests sweeping the country.
“Trump should know that intervention by the U.S. in the domestic problem corresponds to chaos in the entire region and the destruction of the U.S. interests,” Larijani wrote on X, which the Iranian government blocks. “The people of the U.S. should know that Trump began the adventurism. They should take care of their own soldiers.”
As an aside, I had to look around for an outlet that did not paraphrase around his typo. Fortunately, Fox News would not dare alter the wisdom of Trump of the Thin Blood & Thinner Skin.
Hah!
We know Bibi talked to him about doing another “mother of all bombs” attack when he was here a couple of days ago. I assume he is just looking for excuses to help out his good bud. This one seems like a foolish one since it would almost certainly rally the country to the government’s side but Trump isn’t exactly known for his strategic savvy. I would guess Bibi will warn him off using that one.
This is the stupidest timeline. So, incredibly, overwhelmingly stupid.
