US President Donald Trump has told the "crazy bastards" in Iran to open the "fuckin' Strait" of Hormuz or face "hell" in an expletive-laden Truth Social rant.

He signed off the post with "Praise be to Allah".

He's going to order a nuke, I can feel it. And maybe they'll stop him, or maybe they'll let him do it and then remove him. He lost control a while ago.

There is a very high chance a US nuke would fallout over Israel. So, very high chance.

He was never in control, and Americans needs to realise that nothing short of dissolution of the administration down to state level is probably going to solve this.

I think the latter scenario is more likely. Then they can claim “look, we got rid of the guy that did it” and continue with whatever agenda the actual folks in charge are following with a new figurehead.

He would've been stopped during Trump I. That's why he's now in Trump II relying on yes-men without at least a bit of competence on their resorts.

Let's just hope it blows up in the silo at least.

Wasn't a general forced to retire last week? I wonder if we get a few more, until they find someone willing to give that order.
