An increasingly desperate and deranged Donald Trump was on Twitter in the middle of the night again, posting an all-caps threat to Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. Earlier on Sunday Rouhani warned Trump not to get in a conflict with his country, saying a confrontation with the Islamic republic would be the “mother of all wars”.
“Do not play with the lion’s tail or else you will regret it,” Rouhani said on Sunday, reiterating that the US cannot prevent it from exporting its crude oil to the international market.
“Peace with Iran would be the mother of all peace and war with Iran would be the mother of all wars,” he said in a televised speech in Iran’s capital, Tehran. Rouhani last week said that Iran may block regional oil exports if its own sales are halted following the US’ withdrawal from a 2015 nuclear deal signed with world powers.
Shortly before midnight last night Trump tweeted this:
“To Iranian President Rouhani: NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE. WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!”

Although Trump may just be trying to distract attention from his legal and political problems at home, this tweet appears to be evidence of a real mental breakdown.
On Sunday evening Trump falsely attacked President Obama and Hillary Clinton tweeting this:
“So President Obama knew about Russia before the Election. Why didn’t he do something about it? Why didn’t he tell our campaign? Because it is all a big hoax, that’s why, and he thought Crooked Hillary was going to win!!!”

Trump has now admitted that the Russian government really did interfere in the 2016 election, and Putin really did help make him president.
By blaming it on Obama he’s trying to distract attention away from the documented fact that he and his campaign were part of the illegal conspiracy.
Whenever Trump blames Obama and Clinton for his problems it is evidence that he is growing increasingly desperate and deranged. Not only that, but after his historically bad press conference performance with Putin last Monday many Republicans now don’t trust him and have stopped believing his lies.
Donald Trump truly seems to be losing his grip on reality, and we can only hope that there are mentally stable grown-ups surrounding him in the White House and in the U.S. military to prevent him from plunging the world into a nuclear war.
