President Donald Trump did not take kindly to being asked whether he believed bombing civilian power plants and bridges would constitute war crimes after he threatened to do just that in Iran.
The president, 80, was taking questions from reporters in the Oval Office when he was asked about his threat this week on Truth Social.
“You’re talking about blowing up civilian power plants and bridges. Much of the civilized world would consider that a war crime. Do you?” the reporter asked Trump point blank.
The president paused for a moment before deciding it was probably best not to answer the question at all, which had clearly annoyed him.
“Uhhh, I won’t respond to that question,” Trump said before demanding to know which outlet the reporter worked for.
“The New York Times,” the reporter responded.
“I figured so; the failing New York Times,” Trump said before turning away.
HE ordered the targeting of civilians (remember the girls school?) and civilian infrastructure. War criminals are held to account. If you don’t wanna be a war criminal held to account, stop doing war crimes.
This cat gets it. Until the United States empire falls, there will be no accountability. It will fall, eventually, but no time soon.
And we’ll get to live through more thrashing as it flails into the pit of its own demise, taking down whatever it can with it.
Then we get techno feudalism from the ashes, that’ll be fun.
I’m tired.
