https://newrepublic.com/post/210153/trump-threatens-nuke-iran-strikes-strait-blockade>President Trump threatened to drop a nuclear bomb on Iran if it didn’t sign an agreement with the United States.>While speaking to the press outside of the White House on Thursday, Trump was asked if the ceasefire was still on despite the recent exchange of fire in the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. and Iran traded attacks, with Iran reportedly attacking three U.S. warships with missiles, drones, and small boats, and the U.S. bombing an Iranian oil tanker and other targets in the coastal areas of Bandar Khamir, Sirik, and Qeshm Island. Trump said the ceasefire is still in place, but then went on a disturbing tack.>“They trifled with us today, we blew ’em away. They trifled, I call that a trifle. I’ll let you when there’s no cease—you won’t have to know. If there’s no ceasefire, you’re not gonna have to know, you’re just gonna have to look at one big glow coming out of Iran. And they better sign their agreement fast,” Trump said. >Trump then said that peace talks were going “very well, but they’re going to have to understand, if it doesn’t get signed, they’re gonna have a lot of pain. They’re gonna have a lot of pain. They want to sign it, I will tell you. They want to sign it a lot more than I do.”>Does “one big glow” refer to a nuclear bomb? It would have to refer to a massive bombing campaign, at the very least. Fox News reports that the U.S. struck several empty Iranian oil tankers Friday, suggesting that Trump is hoping bombs will coerce Iran into ending its closure of the Strait of Hormuz.>Trump could be alluding to using nukes, or just talking big to try and intimidate Iran’s leadership. So far, though, Trump has not made any visible progress on ending the war, and the world economy continues to suffer as a result, with fuel prices staying high. Nuking Iran would only make things catastrophically worse.
>>1513113Do it or no balls you obese orange faggot
TACO
>>1513113Trump should be impeached for this and the earlier thing he said about ending civilization. He shouldn’t be in charge. If he really is threatening to nuke them it’s not a guarantee they’ll surrender, and it will turn the US into a pariah state.If he has no intention of following through on these threats it means he’s a liar and a coward and should be responded to and treated as such
>>1513307Trump should be given a third term after this so that he has ample time to nuke Iran. We don't have to care about whether or not the US is a pariah state, people are going to hate us as long as we're on top of the world order and that's never going to change. People still bitch about 'Perfidious Albion' more than a century after the British Empire has crumbled into dust.You're a colossal faggot and I hope you get deported to go live with the browns you so admire, while they're still here, that is.
>>1513310People rightfully point out the evil ways of the British Empire not because of tall poppies but because they were, at times, dastardly evil cunts. America is disliked primarily because they are hypocritical, supporting one thing by word and committing the other by action, there are numerous examples of the US condemning something they claim someone is doing and later it’s shown the Americans were doing that thing themselves. Always with the plausible deniability
>>1513310>as long as we're on top of the world orderGood luck maintaining that when the fucking petrodollar falls out of style because of Trump's retardation. We're in massive debt anon; more than our fucking GDP. Petrodollar goes suddenly we can't afford to maintain that massive military you love bragging about.
>>1513310We here in chyNa hope tRump gets a 3rd term.Morons like you and your leader tRump, have never been so good for us. You & tRump stick to shitting up North and South America, while we make the east the glorious new empire.Stay out of our backyard in the chyNa Sea, white trash, and go play a round of links on "your" Golf of America. N'YUCK N'YUCK
I think trump is going to move on, and after he leaves at the end of 2028, Democrats are going to struggle to find a message.Things sucked under the Biden years https://i.imgur.com/sYCVet0.jpegTheir defense was that it was not their fault, that the republicans handed them a turd sandwich and so on, but there's an expectation if you give democrats power again in 2029, things will suck again, they will say it's not their fault (Iran War was Trump handing us a turd sandwich) and they won't have a strong message or identity besides "we are not Trump"
>>1513366The actual left-leaning Dems are going to have to take over the party if anything's going to change.
>>1513366Dems message can be bringing all this corruption to account, declaring Israel a rogue nuclear power, amnesty for illegals, and taxing the rich.Just give the people what they want
>>1513366>I think trump is going to move onlmao he'd fucking never. Besides, the Republican party is now too heavily structured around Trump. He could die tomorrow and the next day various Repubs would be campaigning about how they're his chosen successor or the next him.
>>1513390The right is in a civil war between the Ben Shapiro's and Tucker Carlson wings of the party because they are trying to decide who takes over the party once Trump is gone.
>>1513397Don't forget the literal golden idols and how his niece is literally running the RNC. The GOP has become a Trump cult of personality. They're not getting rid of him any time soon.
>>1513398He's not going to be on the ballot in 2028. Like Reagan wasn't on the ballot in 1988. You can say the primary and election will be "who carries on Trump's vision of America", but I think the more important question is "What did the Democrats do in 1988 after 8 years of Reagan?" Did they run on not being Ronald Reagan? Why were the Republicans able to win another 4 years?
>>1513402>He's not going to be on the ballot in 2028Tell that to them. You have people at hearings to become JUDGES who absolutely refuse to say that Donald Trump cannot run for a third term. You have constant statements from the party supporting the idea or saying they'll amend the rules so he can, you have merch from him saying Trump 2028. They've ignored the rules before, why stop now since Trump clearly won't either? The only way Trump doesn't at least try to be the Republican nominee in 2028 is if he's fucking dead.
>>1513402>"What did the Democrats do in 1988 after 8 years of Reagan?" Did they run on not being Ronald Reagan? Why were the Republicans able to win another 4 years?Reagan's damage wasn't immediately notable. Trump is the reason we have doubled gas prices in the span of literally 3 months.
>>1513403>You have constant statements from the party supporting the idea or saying they'll amend the rules so he canI have not heard of these stories. Could you show me some of these statements from the RNC which imply they will allow Trump to be their nominee in 2028?
>>1513404Trump's decision to back Israel during the iran war, not just Trump raising the price of gasoline from his will alone.During June of 2022, Gas prices hit $5 a gallon on average. Gas prices were $2.25 at the start of Biden's presidency in January of 2021https://www.automotive-fleet.com/news/national-average-gas-prices-hold-steady-to-start-2021Comparatively, the price of gas when Trump entered office January 2025 was $3.08 a gallon, and is $4.50 a gallon currently.
>>1513405>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house/3324704/cpac-trump-power-third-term-push/>https://thehill.com/homenews/house/5104133-rep-andy-ogles-proposes-trump-third-term-amendment/>https://afj.org/article/trump-judicial-nominee-unsure-whether-constitution-applies-to-trump/They gave a "Third Trump term" movement a whole fucking panel at CPAC anon. This is not some fringe movement.
>>1513403>You have people at hearings to become JUDGES who absolutely refuse to say that Donald Trump cannot run for a third term.Because it's a complex legal question.The US constitution only stipulates that someone can be elected for two years. But if Trump is VP, and the current president steps down, he's technically not elected but appointed via succession. So does that mean Trump can be president?Dems are spazzing becaue calling Trump literally hitler is the only way they could potentially claw back power.
>>1513409>Trump's decision to back Israel during the iran war, not just Trump raising the price of gasoline from his will alone.Yeah so what I said. Trump made a stupid decision that doubled gas prices (so far, with no signs of stopping) in the span of literally three months when it took Biden 2 years and a fucking pandemic recovery to do the same. When pressed about this, the official response seems to very between "no they aren't, you're crazy" and "Small price to pay, deal with it.">Comparatively, the price of gas when Trump entered office January 2025 was $3.08 a gallon, and is $4.50 a gallon currently.This ignores how he DID actually succeed in dropping them for a while, only to then decide to torpedo his one economic success by spiking it with this war.
>>1513414>two yearsTwo terms* FUCK
>>1513412I remember when Milo Yiannopoulos got invited to speak at CPAC and then got uninvited. It's a political conference so it is relevant, but it is a circlejerk. It's like making predictions of the future based on what Klaus Schwab says that the WEF. I am sure he wants a future where we will own nothing and be happy, but I'm not too concerned that his worldvision will be unblocked and come to fruition.
>>1513415Fact check. Going from $2.25 to $5.08 is more than doubling, while going from $3.08 to $4.50 represents a 50% price increase.
>>1513414>Because it's a complex legal question.It really isn't.>But if Trump is VP, and the current president steps down, he's technically not elected but appointed via succession. So does that mean Trump can be president?That wasn't the question. The question was "Can Trump RUN for a Third Term". Then then clarified “Is President Trump eligible to run again in 2028?”, and he still could not say "No" even though it's pretty black and white that he cannot run for the position of President again.
>>1513420>while going from $3.08 to $4.50 represents a 50% price increase.Gas prices went down after he got into office. Trump himself bragged about how he got some places to $2 gas... only to then spike it to the point of doubling. And since the war is current in a double blockade stalemate, it's only getting higher.
>>1513419>It's like making predictions of the future based on what Klaus Schwab says that the WEF. I am sure he wants a future where we will own nothing and be happy, but I'm not too concerned that his worldvision will be unblocked and come to fruition.Klaus Schwab wasn't a President with a rampant ego who literally has his party making golden idols of him.
Trump needs to stay in power because once he loses it he’s gonna be fucked by corruption charges, in which he’s clearly guilty, and the entire Epstein file being released videos and everything which will bring down a lot of Trump’s “friends”
>>1513428It's strange, the democrats pursued Trump while he was out of office, but none of it was for Epstein pedo stuffI don't remember Biden saying whether he would or wouldn't release the files. I don't remember Merrick Garland his AG being forced to answer questions about Epstein, like Pam Bondi was
>>1513429I remember Maxwell still trying to file appeals and sealing the files that were relevant to her case (Read: Almost all of them) until her appeals finally completely failed in 2025.
>>1513432Do you think those appeals of a convicted criminal would have overturned an act of legislation?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epstein_Files_Transparency_Act
>>1513433Anon can you please look at when that act was signed into law?
>>1513434I often hear 2 things. That Trump could have always released the files, and that Biden couldn't release the files.I am trying to better understand that issue.If you go back to my prior post>>1513429I am more interested in understanding why they never even had to answer questionshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_8jHpldg94Merrick Garland can get grilled for 4.5 hours and not have to answer one question about epsteinhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxL-W41LgGkWhile Pam Bondi gets grilled and every question is about Epstein.
>>1513439Pam Bondi said that the Epstein files were on her desk in March, they'd be declassified and that prosecutions were incomingThen promptly changed to they'd never be released and no one would be prosecuted. And somehow you think she shouldn't have to explain herself? Garland fucked up about enough other stuff, like not prosecuting Trump like Republicunts pretended he did
>>1513442And she did release the files, at the end of february and the start of March.https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/attorney-general-pamela-bondi-releases-first-phase-declassified-epstein-filesI saw the press conference, there was a bunch of MAGA people holding Epstein files which had never been released by the Justice department before.
>>1513439Garland released the complete report to the Senate, and Feinstein shelved it. This was while Biden was President.That is all you need to know. Everyone in DC wanted it to go away.
>>1513445>That is all you need to know.Sounds legit.
>>1513444There's thousands of files unreleased and tons of names that aren't victims that are completely redacted.
>>1513485So out of 3.5 million, they released 3,49*,***. With thousands remaining. GJ Trump Over 99% success rate
>>1513113>They trifled, I call that a trifle. I’ll let you when there’s no cease—you won’t have to know. If there’s no ceasefire, you’re not gonna have to knowI wish this motherfucker had to listen to his own early onset Alzheimers for a week straight so he could realize how fucking much he blabbers
>>1513508You're giving him too much credit if you think he'd be able to realize that.
>>1513510>I’ll let you when there’s no cease—you won’t have to know.on a loop for 72 hours just to spite him
>>1513507>So out of 3.5 million, they released 3,49yeah no. Current estimate is 2 million files that are unreleased. Not to mention you haven't addressed how the law specifically states the only names to be redacted are victims, yet there are CONSTANT redactions of people who are obviously coconspirators. Including at least one of them showing they intentionally censor Trump's own name because one of Epstein's emails involved someone sending him a CNN article on Trump that got Trump's name in the title censored.Oh, and they fucked up and didn't censor victims while they were busy making sure Trump and Co couldn't be Ctrl+f-ed. Someone's head needs to roll for that alone.
>>1513518>Oh, and they fucked up and didn't censor victims while they were busy making sure Trump and Co couldn't be Ctrl+f-edDamned if you do, damned if you don't, huh?
>>1513521What?
>>1513521>Damned if you do, damned if you don't, huh?You know if they took the same effort they did to remove perpetrators' names to protect the victims, which you know was WHAT THE LAW LITERALLY SAYS TO DO, that would actually damn no one.
>>1513524The law said to redact 3 million files in like 30 days.And it became clear it was a nothingburger once they gave Dems access and nothing came of it.
