In a shocking turn of events, President Donald Trump has reportedly unleashed a barrage of profanity-laden tirades at both Israel and Iran for breaking a ceasefire agreement. The outburst, which occurred during a late-night Twitter rant, has left many scratching their heads and wondering if the President has finally lost his marbles.
According to sources close to the White House, Trump was incensed by reports that Israel had violated the ceasefire by launching airstrikes on Iranian targets in Syria. In a series of now-deleted tweets, the President reportedly called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a “schmuck” and accused him of being a “terrible negotiator.”
But the real fireworks started when Trump turned his attention to Iran. In a tweet that has since gone viral, the President allegedly referred to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani as a “big doofus” and suggested that he “should stick to making rugs instead of starting wars.”
When asked for comment, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders attempted to downplay the incident, stating that the President was simply expressing his frustration in a “colorful and creative way.”
However, not everyone is convinced. Political analyst and comedian John Oliver had this to say about the incident: “I mean, come on. Who talks like that? It’s like a bad episode of The Apprentice meets a middle school playground fight. It’s just embarrassing.”
Meanwhile, in a statement released by the Israeli Embassy, Prime Minister Netanyahu brushed off Trump’s insults, stating, “We are committed to peace in the region and will not be deterred by the ravings of a madman.”
As for Iran, President Rouhani responded in kind, tweeting, “We will not be intimidated by the ramblings of a Cheeto-faced buffoon. Our resolve is strong, and we will not back down.”
In the end, it seems that Trump’s outburst has only served to further inflame tensions in the region. Whether this will lead to further conflict or simply be written off as another one of the President’s wild antics remains to be seen. But one thing is for sure: the world is watching, and it’s not entirely sure whether to laugh or cry.
