Trump says he gave #Iran permission to bomb US airbase. Any other president would have been impeached before sunset

@GottaLaff There may be something much more sinister here. Imagine if Trump was not just shooting off his mouth, but making a careful, calculated, and deliberate statement to stir up unrest in Iran. Effectively he's told the Iranian people that their leadership are working hand in hand with the American empire. It serves American interests to have Iran tear itself apart in a civil war. That's one less country selling oil in Chinese Yuan.
@hfinyow Trump doesn't think that far ahead, or with that much complexity
@GottaLaff this is assuming that Trump was acting alone and not being fed lines from the "owners". But a statement like that from Trump is more damaging to Iran than it is to America
