I’m so confused. I thought there was a 2 week cease fire starting today?
Everything is a lie unless an Iranian official confirms it. That is the new order of things.
- Mar 3: “We won the war.”
- Mar 7: “We defeated Iran.”
- Mar 9: “We must attack Iran.”

- Mar 14: “Please help us.”
- Mar 15: “If you don’t help us, I will certainly remember it.”
- Mar 16: “Actually, we don’t need any help at all.”
- Mar 16: “I was just testing to see who’s listening to me.”
- Mar 16: “If NATO doesn’t help, they will suffer something very bad.”
- Mar 17: “We neither need nor want NATO’s help.”
- Mar 17: “I don’t need Congressional approval to withdraw from NATO.”
- Mar 18: “Our allies must cooperate in reopening the Strait of Hormuz.”
- Mar 19: “US allies need to get a grip - step up and help open the Strait of Hormuz.”
- Mar 20: “NATO are cowards.”
- Mar 21: “The Strait of Hormuz must be protected by the countries that use it. We don’t use it, we don’t need to open it.”
- Mar 22: “This is the last time. I will give Iran 48 hours. Open the strait”
- Mar 22: “Iran is Dead”
- Mar 23: “We had very good and productive talks with Iran.”
- Mar 24: “We’re making progress.”
- Mar 25: “They gave us a present and the present arrived today. And it was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money. I’m not going to tell you what that present is, but it was a very significant prize.”
- Mar 26: “Make a deal, or we’ll just keep blowing them away.”
- Mar 27: “We don’t have to be there for NATO.”
- Mar 28: No major quote
- Mar 29: Claimed talks were progressing
- Mar 30: “Open the Strait of Hormuz immediately, or face devastating consequences.”
- Mar 31: Claimed a deal was “very close” and that Iran would “do the right thing”
- Apr 1: “We’ll see what happens very soon.”
- Apr 2: Repeated that a deal was likely, while warning of continued strikes if not
- Apr 3: “Something big is going to happen.”
- Apr 4: Said Iran must comply “immediately” or face further consequences. “Tuesday 8 PM ET”.

- Apr 6: “We can bomb the hell out of them”
- Apr 7: “A whole civilization will die tonight”
this guy is starting to behave a lot like that putin guy
waaaaaiiit uuuuppp…
I like your post. 50 years from now, high school students are going to open their US History book and read what the orange bumble fuck said during a war he started. Humiliating and perhaps the Americans might learn a lesson from the MAGA disaster.
Americans learning true history, instead of propaganda?
Never gonna happen. When orange turd dies, there will be zero changes to your democratic system and a new pedophile controlled by billionaires will be elected.
If you think your government isn’t lying to you… I have some news
Adding some sources, in case people think these quotes are satirical.
Edits: some longer quotes (which takes away from the punchy format by Linken) and non-chronological groupings.

Apr 8: TACO!
(I hope)
That’s the thing I was wondering about the TACO meme. Is it good to mock him on chickening out when it is best for everybody that he does chicken out?
It’s always a good idea to mock him. If he can’t handle it he is free to resign.
I swear we live in the dumbest timeline. Can we switch back to pre-Covid timeline before Trump?
And now he says they agreed to a cease fire and reopen the Strait.
Out of curiosity I checked out how Fox News is covering this shit show. Totally fucking unhinged is an understatement. He could livestream eating a baby and they’d be praising his bold nutritional choices.
It’s wild. Meanwhile, other mainstream media channels are accused of leftist propaganda by these deranged lunatics, simply for reporting the facts.
That’s because it was said on the TV that means we have to listen and follow what it says cus only correct things get said on the colored box ya here /s
Dude at work randomly walked up and said Iran is gonna be a nice parking lot. Like I’ve known you two weeks and my toolbox is covered in socialist stickers, either you can’t read or you’re real real fuckin dense.
you should show him your tool box. really closely, and at high speed.
World Wide Web was a great experiment while it lasted. Wouldn’t be surprised if we ended up losing a W and getting cut off from good fun things like Steam.
Woke Wide Web
So, hey, Americans, your president is openly threatening genocide. You might uh, want to do something about that. Just a thought.
“Americans”
They voted him into office, this is what “Americans” want
Open to suggestions.
I don’t think any of y’all know how well protected this asshole is
Simultaneous angry mobs outside the white house and mar-a-lago could be nice. I would come out from California to join that.
Go find the richest person in your local city.
You have one, they exist. Probably several in the same area.
Make it their problem.
Work together with independents and disenfranchised republicans to primary 75+% of the democratic party over the next 4 years.
The GOP and the DNC are the sword and shield of the wealthy elites respectively.
Not a short term solution, but the best time to plant a tree is 10 years ago. 2nd best time is today.
Who supports him?
Who supports them?
I think the application of pressure goes where its possible to apply it, instead of where it isn’t.
Then what was the point of all that 2nd amendment talk? Was it all bullshit cause you wanted to keep your pow pow?
Guns and no balls, Thats what’s so dangerous about the regular American.
Like I said elsewhere, your country was won by fat farmers and regular people who grew balls.
It was always bullshit the joke used to be they would be helpless and guns useless against a corrupt government. And as we learned it was always projection they want to be the corrupt government.
Everyone’s to broke to travel and it takes 8 hours to drive across Nebraska
You know they are too pussy ass about it, but you know freedum!
They just filed articles of impeachment - so that’s something…
https://www.congress.gov/119/bills/hres1155/BILLS-119hres1155ih.pdf
Its been proven that the impeachment doesn’t do shit. Infact the last time we impeached our president he was allowed to run and be elected again.
Unanimously supported or is it again an isolated democrat move? Asking because it’s kindof annoying to let USA delete a whole civilization…
We’ll see ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The US has been openly genociding trans people within its borders and no one cares. People turned out for Palestine and Venezuela to the extent that the state allowed them to, but have been seemingly silent on Cuba. Genocide is as American as the Kardashians.
To be clear, I’m not talking about politically savvy users on Lemmy. You’re not the problem. The problem is the “white moderate” that MLK talked about in his letter. The problem is the apoliticals who complain about having to take the scenic route to Starbucks because of protesters on the streets. It’s the so-called “adults” who treat politics like an optional sport. It’s the people who have never heard of AIPAC, and who act surprised to learn that the US is at war. Those people need a good wake up slap.
The cultists are too far gone, the only hope for them to rejoin civilized society is literal cult deprogramming
Look, I agree with every one of your other points, but to say that “the US has been openly genociding trans people” is ludicrously stupid. Yes, some of the states are making anti-bathroom laws, and some of the states are making laws about not allowing medical/therapeutic support to minors for transitioning, and the federal government is making anti-trans executive orders about colleges… but genocide? Seriously?
Don’t water down the use of the word genocide. It’s a very serious thing that is currently happening and supported by the US, but that is not what is happening with trans people. Yet. It might happen with the way things are going, but not yet.
Most people on here gave Jewish pundits shit for calling 700 Jewish deaths in the October attack another “holocaust” and “genocide.” We give those same people shit for not calling 70,000 Palestinian deaths a genocide. Don’t be like those people.
Trans people being effectively legislated out of existence and the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention has issued three red flag alerts, but go on about how it’s not a genocide
the Lemkin Institute believes that the United States is squarely within the early to middle stages of a genocidal process against trans people, the goal of which is to completely erase transgender people not only from public life but also from existence in the U.S. and globally
I urge anyone skimming by to the article I linked, if you have 5 minutes. It’s actually a pretty good read. I’ll also note that this is why I fled the US when I had the chance
I would take them seriously but their mobile site is a shit spam of donation ads and unuseable.
Seems like a shit company that’s just trying to profit off good messaging from where I’m sitting.
Pretty great example of good message ruined by greed.
There’s literally one window with a large X in the top right. NPR and Wikipedia do the same thing. But here, I copied the first three paragraphs for you so you don’t have an excuse.
The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention and Human Security is releasing this third Red Flag Alert for the USA related to the Trump Administration’s anti-trans initiatives, which have continued to expand nationwide since our last Red Flag Alert (RFA) on this subject. Over the eight months since the second RFA’s publication, the Republican Party’s anti-trans agenda has radicalized and continued to intensify. 2025 was the sixth consecutive record-breaking year for the number of anti-trans bills considered across the country. There was a 45 percent increase in bills between 2024 and 2025. Between 2021 and 2025, the number of bills in consideration has increased by 668 percent.
The Administration has moved from identifying transgender people as a threat to the family and to the nation’s military prowess to claiming that transgender people constitute a cosmic threat to the spiritual health of the nation and the greatest direct threat to U.S. national security in the world. Given these ideological developments, especially coupled with the increasingly hostile and draconian legislation against trans identities, the Lemkin Institute believes that the United States is squarely within the early to middle stages of a genocidal process against trans people, the goal of which is to completely erase transgender people not only from public life but also from existence in the U.S. and globally.
Genocide against trans people takes on patterns that set it apart from the mass murder genocides that people commonly associate with the crime, such as the Holocaust. Currently, the genocide against trans people follows a pattern – denial of identity (pattern #9 in the Lemkin Institute’s Ten Patterns of Genocide) – that makes it more familiar to the colonial genocides against indigenous populations, including the residential/boarding school systems in North America and Australia, where indigenous children were “allowed” to go on living if they gave up their identities, including their languages. Denial of identity involves two main steps: preventing people from openly expressing an identity and destroying institutions that reproduce the identity. Given that the denial of identity is the consequence of a well-defined hostility, even hatred, for the identity, the pattern is often characterized by incitement against the group. Alongside suppression and incitement, perpetrators of this pattern of genocide will simultaneously criminalize the identity, so that expressions of it or institutions that reproduce it become characterized as threatening and corrosive to the body politic and warranting state violence and coercion. People who assert or support the denied identity then become criminal elements that must be eliminated. In the case of the boarding schools, children who used their mother tongue or otherwise showed signs of their independent identity were severely punished.
Which authoritative body has the power to do something about it, that isn’t openly in cahoots with him? I’ll wait.
The people have all the authority. The people are the country, and all agencies are there to serve the people. The people are the highest authority. The people should fix the problem, since it’s the people who voted in the corrupt fascist pedophile into power.
Even the local traffic cops have enough firepower to take down a village; the farce of a 2nd amendment does nothing against real tyranny, it’s just for meatheads to injure themselves or their loved ones and oppress minorities when they get scared. I’m in California; all my votes go blue and are meaningless on the national scale. No amount of standing in front of buildings or blocking roads will make a dent in the capitol overlords that own the levers of accountability.
What a defeatist mentality you have. You lost before you even tried to fight. Americunts and their excuses never cease to amaze me.
Well it’s good you acknowledge all the things you cant do.
What about the things you can?
What do you suggest? I take pretty extreme “voting with your dollars” positions that have excluded me from a ton of social and family things. I have protested, taken days off work, marched, signed petitions. I’ve donated to progressive politicians, I’ve talked about what’s going on to apathetic people to the point where they don’t talk to me much anymore or ask to stop talking politics. Everything I’ve voted for has pretty much passed, and my representatives do the right things for the most part. I actively participate in a local network of people connecting resources to protect immigrants by hosting some services on my self-hosted network for people to organize on (I have personally sponsored meshtastic communicators and provided access to an anti-ice private channel).
I’m pretty tired of doing what feels like a huge amount of effort, only to be told I should be doing something different or more. I fought so hard against the right, that the flanking snark attacks from the left and the implication that I’m somehow complicit by not doing enough or the right thing are driving me towards apathy. I’m fucking exhausted.
“we don’t negotiate with terrorists”
Imagine not being able to negotiate internally
Americans if this is not the time for second amendment I don’t fucking know what it. This is Munich 1938, it’s now or deal with a king and a world war where you guys are the Nazis.
The opposition has been infighting and soon you’ll all be silenced too. Before Germany invaded Europe, they stamped out any dissent within their borders first. Throwing the growing list of undesirable in camps without due process.
It’s not like this is already happening in America is it? 🤔 But really Americans how much more do you need? And don’t just throw your arms up in the air and dodge blame while you sit on your couch watching Netflix.
Your country was won by fat farmers and every profession in between when they realized it was UNITE OR DIE
But who do we shoot. Like really?
What do I do ?
It sounds plausible on paper but just not possible in real life to do anything. With or without a gun.
I have multiple guns, I live 3,000 miles from DC, I own them mostly to shoot at bears who come near me, what do you suggest I do?
Organising with others is a good first step
Well I’m well on my way to step two then it’s so frustrating to see people tell me I just need to shoot things/people though
Some kind of large gathering of likeminded people, perhaps? That could be workable…
Too much effort for an American. No one is paying them enough to skip a day of work.
Sarcasm:
Think of the starving shareholders!
IDK, the protests do seem to be pretty well attended, despite the apparent effort required…
This could be a blessing in disguise. He called Biden a retard on Monday. He’s now upped the threats a notch.
Could be he got some very bad health news from Walter Reed medical over the weekend.
No one in their right mind talks with a lunatic.
By acting crazy and threatening people, dj appears to have made up his own mind long ago.
The US had a perfectly good nuclear deal with Iran, but Trump chose to rip it up nine years ago because it had Obama’s name on it.
Should come to no surprise that Iran don’t want to end this crisis diplomatically with the same guy who stabbed them in the back just to spite the Democrats…
Trump sparked anger and concern around the globe on Tuesday morning with his post, which read, “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!”
I’ve not read the full wording of his Truth Social post until now, but why does it read like he’s trying to cut a wrestling promo?
I mean his description of the US airman rescue operation in yesterday’s press conference where he called the Iranian army a “hostile, very talented, very good, very evil military” was giving me Danhausen vibes…
If he plays his cards right, he might end up winning the WWE Peace Prize.
Did you misspel WW3? 🤭
The US had a perfectly good deal. Israel didn’t. If the deal had stayed in place, the Iranian econony would have roughly doubled by now. That’s a lot more resources that could stay in Israel’s way of expanding into Lebanon for example.
The deal benefited Israel as well… what are you talking about!?
What the deal did not include was: praise for the orange pedophile and/or distraction for his crimes or Bibi’s
Did an edit to add that before I saw your reply. Don’t buy what Israel tells you about how they love the Iranian people. Consider Israel’s material interests.
E: Also it’s fairly public fact that Israel lobbied against the deal and following it lobbied for repeal.
Consider Israel’s material interests.
Hmmmm how about no… Israel had a chance but decided to become the new Nazis… they can go fuck themselves back to the stone age for all I care
“consider” as in “you won’t understand why Israel does what it does unless you think about”, it doesn’t mean “give them what they want”
yes, I understood… but again, this is the slippery slope where “the best move” is justified regardless how heartless and immoral it may be
My point is I do not care what Israel had to win by this. This is wrong and they should pay dearly for their crimes against humanity
I only meant for analysis sake 😅
Yes but this is the slippery slope that can justify any and all atrocities…
He’s a shitting, screaming, spoiled child having a temper tantrum. Oh, he also has access to the nuke codes. Nothing to worry about. /s
Well if the nukes fly tonight I hope there’s at least a few that refuse the orders
Fine, tomorrow then. Just enough time to replace the insubordinate.
Who would’ve thought the art of the deal is just black mailing?
The Art of the Deal: Letting your fragile self be easily manipulated into getting nothing that you wanted.
Huh. Weird. Turns out when you show a demented willingness to cause mass genocide, people might get the impression that negotiations aren’t really an option anymore.
It isn’t really “talks” when the alternative is to be destroyed as a civilization. That’s bullying and extortion
People in the US, Have you called your representatives yet? This is the time to do the smallest thing to make your voice known.
I’d suggest using 5 calls if you don’t know your representatives.
So fucking crazy. Trump is insane
