Truly evil behavior. And seeing this as the precedent is awful. Bombing civilian infrastructure is villainous. (But apparently par for the course for the US and Israel.)
I don't know if it's evil. He's clearly come unmoored from his faculties.
All of the cursing and threatening in the world won't help, though, if we don't come up with some way to get our hands on that UF6. Most likely, he will pound Iran into submission, force them to agree to reopen the Strait, and walk away declaring victory (after tipping his insider-trading cronies off, of course.)
Then, a couple of years from now, after he's dead of whatever's eating his brain now, we'll find out the hard way where the uranium went. Americans will say, "Oh noez, the turrorists hate us for our freedum!"
Most likely, he will pound Iran into submission, force them to agree to reopen the Strait
Unfortunately that's what the crazies running the US still think will work ("Plan A: There is no plan A. Plan B: Hope Plan A works"). When, in the entire course of human history, has this strategy ever worked?
Trump has lost this war, which is why he's shouting obscenities at clouds in frustration.
I realize this thread is already doomed [flagged], but we've gotten to the point where the frog is boiled.
Everyone knows this type of behavior is completely unhinged, but nobody is willing to do anything about it. Aside from the most extreme MAGA in the House, we have some ridiculous -- never admit anything is wrong -- party loyalty precedent that is keeping this going.
We're already in a bad place, and we are sleepwalking towards WW3, the loss of Taiwan (and a semi-conductor crisis), and even the potential for a nuclear exchange. The madman strategy doesn't work between two madmen, which is why this situation is just lunacy. An all out war with Iran may be the best option at this point, it's true, but the point is that the US Congress should be the institution to decide that, not just one man who is now stretching the credulity of the War Powers Act past any sense of a good-faith interpretation.
The serious and dangerous part is that Iran has already said that in the event of attacks on its power infrastructure, they will hit all of the power and desalination plants of all those who have assisted the USA/Israel coalition in this USA/Israel war against Iran.
The USA has burned any ability to negotiate, probably forever for everyone, and Israel sinks deeper into becoming what it hates/d most.

We are not smart people.
Evil is in the eye of the beholder. To me, killing innocent people is ontologically evil.

The transition from early- to middle-stage Alzheimer's is difficult for everyone.
This is his most reality-aware statement on the Iran conflict so far. Compare it to "the strait is open" and "negotiations going well".
Melting down over the mess he created is fairly grounded.

The march to Idiocracy is accelerating.

Happy Easter morning
Last time I checked the strait was open BEFORE the attack...
