Iran says that Trump is FOS!

At this point, I can't decide if Trump really has gone insane and lost his mind, or if Iran's propaganda is so utterly absurd that he's just flat out ignoring any public statement they put out and is only going by what they say behind closed doors.

We do know Iran engages in two different channels of communications - one for public consumption to save face and the real one in private, but this whole thing has gotten to ludicrous levels of back and forth.

Trump needs to follow his own advice at this point and STFU at a minimum. Either wait them out on the blockade in silence, bomb them, or walk away and wait for everyone to develop alternate oil delivery paths.

President Trump:

“We seem to be getting along quite well with the Ayatollah.

I would like to meet him. I will probably meet him at some point.”

Seriously though, what we are experiencing right now may be the new normal for quite some time

What a nut job.

Yeah, the dissonance is getting to be pretty absurd. We're miles past George W Bush's "mission accomplished" faux pas.

It seems like Trump has always been super popular with the troops, but would not blame them for thinking "does this guy have any idea what he's doing right now?"
