According to Ron Filipkowski, trump just posted that Iran's oil supply is going to explode because they have run out of storage because of the blockade. This will force them to surrender "in 3 days"!
What kind of an absolute fool do you have to be to believe this obvious gaslighting?
Everything we are told about this war is propaganda, nonsense, or gaslighting. And someone needs to tell him that to his face.

We ALL should have learned by now NEVER to take any Trump comments at face value.
Question authority. ESPECIALLY his!

(5,304 posts)It takes a special kind of fool to believe the buffoon in charge.
Yet, there is something like the Third Reich in America today.
When I talk to some of my friends about my worry, they initially said the guard rails would hold. Now, the responses are: (a) Your neighbors that supported Trump wouldnt do something like that; (b) Trust in God, it is in his/her hands; (c) I dont listen to the news, it upsets me.

(25,012 posts)is when it has been first verified for truthfulness and accuracy by some independent source(s). Otherwise, I will not believe a GD thing that he or any of his loyal minions say. I wish the news media would do the same. The only time it should be "news" is when Trump is actually telling the truth and he should be ignored the rest of the time. But I guess since he's POTUS and the media needs ratings that's too much to ask.
