What a fucking embarrassment.

Die already

Trump is desperate to get his name on everything before he dies. He's always been desperate to get his name on things, and now that he's getting older and more infirm, he positively reeks of desperation.

But I suspect that the future historians won't be kind to him and eventually we'll get his name off of everything and his only real legacy will be in every list of history's worst American Presidents.

“We're negotiating now, and it’d be great if we could do something, but they have to open it up. They have to open up the Strait of Trump — I mean, Hormuz. Excuse me, I'm so sorry, such a terrible mistake,” Trump said.

“The fake news will say he accidentally said — there's no accidents with me, not too many. If there were, we'd have a major story,” he added.

“If I don't get the Nobel Prize for peace, nobody will ever get it. I didn't get it. I'm not surprised. The person that got it was shocked — she’s a wonderful woman too, by the way,” he said.

This is completely incongruent with reality. Trump has lived his hyper-privileged life speaking the things he wants into existence, and that privilege has now reached its limit.

These are not the words of a sane person.

This is so pathetic. What an embarrassment.

Trump will be remembered for his many crimes and ethical bankruptcy. Inevitably after he's gone, there will be no incentive to cover for him, and the incentive will be to blame him for the terrible state in which he will leave the US economy and international relations.

Anyone with a pulse knows that he is a child rapist. Anyone with above-room-temperature IQ knows that he was deeply involved in Epstein's operation, acquiring, grooming, and warehousing girls. Any genuine investigation will produce evidence of that.

He's also single-handedly destabilised the global economy. The trillions of dollars his dumb ideas have cost everyone in productivity are just breathtaking.

Operation Epstein Fury is probably the USA's biggest and most costly unforced strategic error in history. The consequences will resound through the coming decades.

The culmination of this context is that he has accelerated China's rise to dominance and the USA's collapse into irrelevance. As an Australian, just 2 years ago I was keen for us to cosy up to the US in the hope that the yanks would help us push back on China's expansion of influence in the region. Honestly, now I feel more comfortable with China than I do with the US.

It’s been really awesome having a demented old pedofile child murderer as the most powerful person in the world. Everyday I’m like I can’t wait to see how much worse it can get. We literally could have randomly picked any crackhead in America and they would have been a better president.

This is getting bigger by the day.

Fuel shortages in SE Asia. This affects many industries the US gets products from.

China has suspended mineral shipments to the US and restricted fertilizer exports.

Russia is all but openly aiding Iran and likely instigating some of the actions.

Panic buying is happening in South America.

Diesel is over $10/gallon in some places.

Gas prices are hitting record highs in some places in the US.

And these effects are “rubber band” effects. They lag behind the actual impetus driving them.

This is going to get worse. A lot worse. These events are red flags. And if nation groups start taking sides over the conflict we are going to possibly see a far greater war and massive privation globally.

Trump has no Plan B.

Either the rape he planned goes as expected, or he ends up here, impotently raging at the rest of the world.

The president again boasted he has “stopped eight wars”

It doesn't really count if you were the one who didn't start those eight wars.

Personally, I've prevented nine cases of underage drinking this week.

The Strait of Hormuz is nothing like Trump. It's a sphincter that can be opened and closed. Trump: always open.

Wonder how it feels not having the cards. Did he even say thank you for the shops Iran let through?

America is not a credible nation anymore.

...and maybe it never was.

Trump is killing the global economy, pulling everyone into a recession. Prices for daily necessities are skyrocketing, and still Trump has 40% approval rating in the US? Like do those fckng idiots like paying more for everyday stuff? What the fck is wrong with them.

If sundown syndrome had a human avatar that exaggerated the symptoms...

Congress is letting this shit head do this and the people who voted them in think it's great.

The dumbest people on the planet are in charge.

And you can see it online with people saying "what does no kings mean? America doesn't have a king"

It does when congress does nothing and the joke of a court rubber stamps everything.

Yet they just cant see it. Damn that is a level of stupid that exceeds anything ever seen before.

I hate it here.

They opened it to Spain.

His level of complete derangement is as plain to see as the paint on his face.

Watch, somehow he will claim victory for when this war ends, and then promptly add it to the dubious list of wars he’s ended during his presidency.

“Hur dur gib me dem pees prizes NOW!1!!1!111!

Did he seriously try to name the Strait of Hormuz after himself? By decree?

What a loser.

Aladeen the Aladeen of Aladeen

Is this asshole seriously still whining about the Nobel Peace Prize? Didn't the winner of the prize eventually just give the prize to him?

WTF is the Future Investment Initiative Institute? More Government of Putin supporters filled with BS to steal more from US taxpayers? Anyway, Krasnov is begging to talk to the Iranians, because he is running out precision guided weapons, his piss poor plan is failing and he knows his next step is a ground war, which will test the US public.

Man, he's just begging Iran to "open his straight"

They just need to declare that the award no longer exists. That’s all the winners there will ever be. Thanks for playing everyone!

The note at the end of the article doesn't get enough discussion: a cnn poll showing 100% of MAGA people polled approve of Trump. Including people outside of MAGA, he's got the worst approval rating ever. But MAGA is all that matters to the administration, they view the rest as terrorists/enemies anyhow -- just like how they view other western democracies as enemies these days. CNN may as well say that his approval rating is negative in the IRGC, for all the administration cares.
