He will be say enough stupid shit this week for there to be a 7/6
@chmod777 @robert Oh there will absolutely 100% be a raged toddler tantrum when Iran doesn't suddenly agree to the deal he... actually hasn't even talked to them about...
@robert Everything about this says: ”I want to quit so badly, but I can’t”
@gimulnautti @robert
My guess would be rather "Hey, why didn't they give in to my bullying already? It worked all the time, I need to try harder!"

@gimulnautti @robert Yeah, why doesn't this "Iran-Epstein-War-subscription" have a proper 14-day cancellation option? The gentleman peddling it at the door to the Oval Office said that I can call him anytime in the first two weeks to cancel it. But he left me a fake out-of-order number.

Oh, I signed an EO ending enforcement of consumer rights, but it wasn't meant to end consumer rights for old white men!

@robert great thread of threats. your thread alone should be enough impeach him for mental health reasons.

@robert

@robert The bitter bit about this thread is that, as someone who doesn't closely follow Trump's ramblings, I cannot tell if those quotes are made up, a bit polished for comedy, or actually from a person with control over one of the world's largest militaries.
@robert Apr 7, “can anyone help me get my dick out of this hornet’s nest?”
@uncle_vinny @robert 😂 🤣 the way he dealt with it the epstein days - he should be immune to it being bitten - oh no they sting!!! 🤔 🤣 😂
@robert holy crap that April 5 quote is real. That guy is bonkers this is all so embarrassing.

@robert

his head needs to go in a vise and squeezed until his ears meet in the middle. the end.
