Trump wants to "bomb, bomb, bomb... bomb, bomb Iran..." [1]

At midnight on the East Coast, Donald tried to make Iran feel secure after saying that if he were assassinated by Iran operatives, to obliterate the country.
He didn't succeed in making anyone feel better. It just never works when he starts His Truth Social posts off with a lie.
"I want Iran to be a great and successful Country..." You've got to be kidding me! He just took away Bolton and Milley's Secret Service protection so they can be assassinated by Iran. Then he would have to react militarily or look weak.
"...but one that cannot have a Nuclear Weapon." Capitalized to make sure we knew what he was talking about.
"Reports that that the United States, working in conjunction with Israel, is going to blow Iran into smithereens, ARE GREATLY EXAGGERATED."
The all caps just gives it away that it is true. He just met with Netanyahu to make up the plans. It's really transparent. Smithereens. Only a diplomat like Trump would use that word.
"I would prefer a Verified Nuclear Peace Agreement." So why did you reneg on the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that would have kept or delayed Iran from building a nuclear weapon? It was working as well as it could with the IAEA policing their nuclear labs.
"...will let Iran peacefully grow and prosper." Only if they don't assassinate you. You would rather bomb them back to the Stone Age.
"... a big Middle East Celebration." They already have them, like Ramadan. Does he realize he's talking about a Muslim country?
"We should start working on it immediately..." Send all the USAID workers and the Peace Corps over there first. You might get a positive response.
"God Bless the Middle East!" He should have said it in Arabic. But that would never have occurred to him. Or Hebrew for that matter.
Yesterday, Trump put out a Fact Sheet called: "President Donald J. Trump Restores Maximum Pressure On Iran." Within the Fact Sheet, he calls it an NSPM, a National Security Presidential Memorandum. In it, he starts off by explaining that Iran can never get a nuclear weapon, issues orders to cripple their economy, and then says how he promised back in 2020 that Iran would never get a nuclear weapon while he was in office. They probably already have one.
Trump should be tired of chewing on his foot after having shot it, and then reloaded the gun. But, no. The deal maker only knows how to threaten first, make nice, and then claim victory.
Iran will remember the threats.
