Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
So Americans, are you really going to let this clearly unhinged man drive the world into nuclear Armageddon? You will cling on to the jobs you say you hate until the last second of doom lest you find balls and do anything?
As much as I hate to admit it, because I am one, modern Americans are wimps.
I mean....we're letting a criminal pedophile drive our futures into the dirt. As in, we will see a decline in the quality of our lives, for the remainder of our lives.
It's not really a matter of opinion. We're weaklings.
Whether "America The Brave" was true at some point or just propaganda, the bottom line is we're completely and totally pathetic right now. An absolutely shameful time to be an American citizen.
I'm doing my part by upvoting your comment.
"Waaah, I ripped up the deal by the black guy and now I want that deal but by me, a white guy. Waaaaaaah."
Can't come soon enough.
as if there were a plan to exterminate 7 out of every 8 human beings
Oh, back to threatening genocide?
Wait, he's saying he was Mr nice guy before? When?
I'm tired... when will this end?
Deja vu?
That's what he said to Denny's about his steaks back in the day!
I'm getting deja Vu. I thought he said we are blockading the straight. What's wrong with this guy
Having this guy as your negotiator is like having buggs bunny as the leader of your stealth division
I get what you're going for, but bugs would do a better job if for no other reason than it would be funny.
That type of salesmanship did not work for his steaks. Can this guy ever learn?
Other statesmen and journalists should also learn – and make it clear that Trump is making himself look more and more ridiculous and that all his threats are simply weird and clumsy.
No he can not, he's a fucking idiot with the nuke codes.
Either way is a win for Putin.
"Stand and deliver" - US is a fucking pirate nation. And the idiots from US Army and US Navy are just common criminals. All of them.
Again? Haven't we gone through this already?
Taco Tuesday
Yeah he's gonna throw nukes at some point
Who's this Mr Nice Guy he speaks of?
Tuesday isn't far away
Tuesday's coming. Did you bring your coat?
Everything is a "deal" now.
This is unfortunate.
It's spreading.
This too shall pass.
I've been saying this for a while now. I'm sick of hearing that word.
He just blew up his diaper.
The question is, will the Secret Service do its duty if he decides to nuke Iran? Because he sounds crazier than ever to me, if any President would, it's him.
Hopefully, an agent will follow their oath to protect the United States from all enemies, foreign and domestic.
lol the Secret Service is 100% Trump loyalists, just like the military.
Considering the SS paraded the photographers and journalists around Trump when his "ear got shot off," and that crane that slowly lowered the flag down for that infamous picture. I'd say they're all for on board.
Again? Didnt he sundown this same tantrum like 3 weeks ago?
According to another article it's all a strategy/fake to make them think he's unstable and just do what he says.

Yeah, Mad Man Theory, which dates back to the Nixon Administration. It's debatable whether it worked back then, and it's definitely not going to work against a theocracy.
Nixon wasn't the head of a cult. There's two theocracies at play here.
Also, when it works it doesn't work long. A stable nation that consistently helps its friends is a far better strategy. Especially as you never have to go it alone when actually threatened.
US Diplomacy at work ladies and gentlemen.
