‘His brain is broken’: Critics torch ‘unstable’ Trump after wild social media meltdown - Lemmy.World

Critics put Donald Trump on blast on Monday after he posted a message on social media threatening Iran with “Death, Fire and Fury.” Writing on his Truth Social website, Trump said any attempt to block oil shipments would lead to an attack “TWENTY TIMES HARDER” ― and so severe that it will be “virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back, as a Nation, again.” Iran has responded to the U.S.-Israeli military campaign by threatening to attack ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, effectively cutting off some 20% of the world’s oil. That’s triggered wild fluctuations in the market for crude oil, rising gas prices at U.S. pumps and fears of further economic pain should the conflict drag on.

The oil prices are affecting us in Europe too. Gas is getting wayyy more expensive. My car also isn’t very fuel-efficient…

And I think this is wonderful news if it teaches that fuckface a valuable lesson.

Unfortunately necessities and commodities getting more expensive doesn’t mean anything to the elites. Tarrifs and increased cost of living significantly disproportionately affects poors and working class people. For a rich person, fridges doubling in price is still a cheap purchase. For a poor person that needs a fridge and could hardly afford one before price doubled, they certainly can’t afford one now. Once again the poors carry society on their shoulders. Gas went up? U think rich people even notice? Hell no. But us working people now have to decide between eating lunch on Saturday and driving to work next week.
