"Donald Trump and his minions are having a meltdown. On Saturday, Trump lashed out at the New York Times for an article saying the obvious — that many of his original war goals, whatever they may have been, remain unaccomplished."

"Why the desperation? The answer is obvious. It’s turning out not just that regime change — if that was really the goal — is hard to engineer, but also that the world is a lot more dependent on the Strait of Hormuz than Trump and co. seem to have realized."

@wdlindsy Donnie and Hellsdeath are going to do something really dumb now, aren’t they? And it doesn’t look as if anyone in the administration is capable of stopping him.
GJ Groothedde 🇪🇺@Eetschrijver @wdlindsy Something really, really dumb but I’m not going to say what but will confirm if it happens (and I really, really hope it does not).

Well, I guess there's no lack of ominosity with this guy at the top of the chain. I hope for goodness' sake that the nuclear codes they gave him are bogus.

@Eetschrijver @wdlindsy So do I but Hellsdeath apparently likes blowing things up and thinks he’s a crusader. Like Trumpty, he’s a total nutcase with a phenomenal amount of power.
