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.
“Trump, 80…” Gets me every time
I’m confused. Did he get BLASTED or SLAMMED at all?
He gets BLASTED and SLAMMED by his Saudi Jet Buddies every plane ride.
no, I think he was RIPPED and perhaps BLISTERED
War criminals are held to account.
When did that start? It seems to me that only happens to the poor ones. It’s the same enforcement standard as any other law.
When did that start?
Past (none were poor):
Recent war-crime prosections:
Those guys needed to be removed for US interests in Africa.
War criminals are held to account.
Not if they’re American.
The Hague Invasion Act ensures that will never happen.
Neither are child rapists, apparently.
When I read “Trump, 80” there is only one word I expect to follow.
Yup, same, “…fell into a volcano”.
“Shat out his own kidney”
And he’s still invincible, due to cowards in Washington and the media.

Next time they should respond by asking him to take a guess first
“but but but trump! can’t you simply threaten everyone that doesn’t agree with your words and actions? then they’ll all be happy and love you!”
