Donald Trump deflected responsibility for misleading Americans about the length of the Iran war, dismissed low poll ratings as “fake numbers” and refused to rule out the possibility of declaring a state of emergency before the midterms, in a wide-ranging interview with Time magazine.
When confronted with questions about the length of the Iran war, the US president blamed the media for reporting his remarks in which he said the conflict was projected to last “four to five weeks”, in March.
“ … I think the press fed it to them,” Trump told Time when asked whether Americans misunderstood him.
He never rules anything out. This isn’t really a headline.
It’s a stupid question.
Nobody is stupid enough to rule out an emergency.
If anyone would, it would be him. He just needs a map and a really big sharpie.
Yeah, the asshole seems to be on the fence about using nukes on Iran, FFS. For a war he fucking started.
Most of them aren’t. I thought I had a filter for stuff with his name in it but apparently I don’t.
