There is a particular indignity that comes from living in America, derived from the experience of waking up in the morning to see reports that Donald Trump has said something profoundly evil, and then needing to type “truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump” into your web browser to see if he actually said that. Once there, you can see a post in which Trump did indeed threaten to wipe out the entire civilization of Iran, stacked on top of an ad for a sketchy herbal supplement of some sort:

A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

    It seems clear the Americans will rather cling on to the life they claim to hate and the jobs they despise until they are slowly enslaved and killed, rather than risk anything to undo the massive mistake they caused by reelecting a convicted felon, child rapist and overall buffoon as president

        I want them to wake up before their demented dictator wannabe literally takes the world to WWIII

        ps: by “wake up” I mean “act”… at the very least a general strike ta this point

        pps: I’ve read excuses for months, yet Muricans won’t even quit nazi xitter or facebook as a sign they are not totally docile sheeple

        Interesting point. I hope the “MSM” does their part by portraying exactly that as a Good American Thing.
