Donald Trump erupted at the United Kingdom Tuesday morning over its refusal to join the United States in its war against Iran, issuing the European nation a notice that the United States would no longer be offering it “help.”

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

      Lol cool drive-by from an intentionally uncharitable read of what I said. “The plus side”?

      Here’s what I think - I think you don’t have the first clue what I was talking about in specific, like the jobs and programs canceled, what they were, what they did. I think you squinted and saw the barest seed of pro-US sentiment (not really there) and took the opportunity to lob some very boring and poorly-constructed snark.

      If you have an actual point to make, feel free of course. That option was already there for you though and you chose not to take it, so I don’t have high hopes.
