[Politics] Donald Trump, US President

[Sirnormangall]

He's claimed the decision to attack was nothing to do with him...

If true it shows he’s becoming less important and trusted on the world stage. Until recently neither Israel or Ukraine would have carried out their recent attacks without his knowledge.

It's clearly not true, because nothing he says is true.

 

[Easy 10]

Just been watching live coverage on CNN of more retaliatory missiles raining down on Tel Aviv and Jerusalem tonight. Iron Dome has taken care of most of them, quite impressive actually seeing it in action, but some are still getting through. Even if the missiles are intercepted, there must be some fearsome shrapnel raining down on those streets and buildings.

Good work with ol' Ben the other day then Donald. Good work. Its all going swimmingly.

I think Israel did it with his knowledge, and he either gave full or tacit approval. He just doesn't want to get the blame.

Trump so desperate to appear relevant in all these conflicts.

It must be so frustrating dealing with him. Knowing that the assistance/influence of the U.S. is vital but in order to get anywhere near it you have to deal with that argumentative prick.

It’s like making Billy Bunter the candy monitor. Nobody stands a chance.

I just f***ing hate him so much.

Trump so desperate to appear relevant in all these conflicts.

Undermined Zelenskyy, caused chaos within NATO and tried to play dictators and fascist leaders who are much better at the machiavellian machinations than he is.

His support base is becoming increasingly divided over the ME and his continued support for Netanyahu so it’s not a good strategy for his domestic politics either

‘Drop Israel’: How military escalation with Iran divides Trump’s base

Key right-wing figures, including some Trump allies, question the Israeli strikes and warn against a US war with Iran.

Trump the harbinger of ‘Peace’?

“… the United States makes the best and most lethal military equipment anywhere in the World, BY FAR, and that Israel has a lot of it, with much more to come,”

Walz continues and says State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette were each "shot multiple times".

He says they are out of surgery and he is "cautiously optimistic" that they will survive "this assassination attempt".

This was an "act of targeted political violence", he says.

• A Democratic state politician has been killed and another has been injured after "targeted shootings" in the US, officials say
• Melissa Hortman and her husband have been killed, he says. John Hoffman and his wife are recovering after surgery, he adds

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz says the attack at the lawmakers' homes in two towns near Minneapolis "appears to be a politically motivated assassination"

Two others killed. A Democratic state politician and her husband. Gunman seemingly impersonating a police officer.

The news was announced a couple of hours ago. Since then these are his posts....

Melissa Hortman the other politician killed wasn’t even holding a high office, she was the ex-speaker of the Minnesota House of Representatives but currently just a member of the local Democrats holding a minor local office.

Absolutely shocking - Several
of my family members work for the DNC and I am sure they and many Democratic officials and politicians are feeling quite vulnerable under Trump’s psychotic presidency.

Ye ha! American sickos resolving their issues like the good ole Wild West

Have a read of some of the replies on here - accusations that it is because both of them voted with the Republicans recently; so have been taken out by the Democrats themselves. Whoever has done this, from whatever 'side', this sort of response, before any actual information, just shows that the world gone crazy.

So people (presumably MAGA Republicans) before any evidence is in are making the killing of a Democratic politician and shooting of another (plus spouses) about removing benefits for ‘illegal aliens’ so it must have been retribution by ‘illegal aliens’!? Thereby implying a further justifying of illegal round ups by ICE.

Unfuckingbeleivable.

Melissa Hortmann and her husband are dead, Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette are wounded.

Yes, thanks. Edited post for accuracy. Scanned too quickly

Looking at Breanna Morello's twitter page, I'm not sure she's the most credible journalist
