Chump posted this insane Bomb Bomb Iran music video yesterday [View all]

Trump just posted this “Bomb Bomb Iran” video: 🎵 “Went to a mosque… Gonna throw some rocks… Time to turn Iran into a parking lot…”

After many innocent people were killed there — Childish. Indifferent to human suffering. Not leadership.

From Heather Cox Richardson:

A video on Trump’s social media feed posted at 7:15 tonight recalled Senator John McCain’s 2007 call to “bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran” to the tune of the Beach Boys’ “Barbara Ann.” Trump’s version used McCain’s “bomb Iran” chorus but was longer and had visual imagery of planes dropping bombs. In Trump’s version, the soundtrack to the video used the melody of Barbara Ann to say things like: “went to a mosque, gonna throw some rocks, tell the ayatollah gonna put you in a box,” and “old Uncle Sam, getting pretty hot, gonna turn Iran into a parking lot.”

It is a truism that, like other authoritarians, Trump tries only to appeal to his supporters, but I confess this video, from the president of the United States, left me aghast. It seems to me long past time to question the 79-year-old president’s mental health.


Yep, this is how one goes about being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
