Critics put Donald Trump on blast on Monday after he posted a message on social media threatening Iran with “Death, Fire and Fury.”
Writing on his Truth Social website, Trump said any attempt to block oil shipments would lead to an attack “TWENTY TIMES HARDER” ― and so severe that it will be “virtually impossible for Iran to ever be built back, as a Nation, again.”
Iran has responded to the U.S.-Israeli military campaign by threatening to attack ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, effectively cutting off some 20% of the world’s oil. That’s triggered wild fluctuations in the market for crude oil, rising gas prices at U.S. pumps and fears of further economic pain should the conflict drag on.
“People on internet are mad at stuff Trump says on internet.”
Brilliant reporting. Why not make the article about how unhinged the shit he was saying was, not the reaction of people to it?
Because it’s HuffPost, which has always been more of a clickbait-farm for liberals than a journalism outlet.
Don’t forget to give credit to individuals and organizations ‘slamming’ him.
Because one of those is journalism and the other is editorializing, most outlets have a section for both.
And they’re all sane washing his bullshit 24/7
Ah yes, the famous Trump Sanewashing perpetrated by the Huffington Post with articles titled things like ‘His Brain Is Broken’.
Pick your battles, dude. If you want to complain about the very real problem of Trump sane washing you might want to save if for an incident where that is what is actually happening.
You’re really going to defend the Huffington Post?
In terms of “are they sane washing Trump in this article?” Sure. They obviously aren’t.
I wasn’t talking about this article specifically, I’m talking about US media as a whole. Including the Huffington Post
Do you think that a discussion about an article that actually sane washes trump might be a better place to set up your soapbox for this particular complaint?
