Narcissism and Psychopathy on Display in the Oval Office

Rumble link Bitchute linkIn today’s news…the bad news is that Trump’s potty mouth overflowed as he threatened to “beat the f*cking sh*t’ out of Iran.” The good news is that Trump appears to have defecated in his pants at Lindsey Graham’s funeral…which might conceivably render him slightly less full of sh*t.Below is a transcript of last night’s Press TV interview. Listen to the whole thing in the audio podcast file at the top of my Substack post, or watch the two-minute highlight video above.Press TV: Well, it’s 6 p.m. here in Tehran and time for the news review. Welcome. Now, let me give you a recap of what’s been happening and what we’re going to talk about. We have been watching Iran, what another Iran is saying, as long asU.S. aggression against Iran’s civil infrastructures Iran will retaliate. And that’s what Iran has done. And the continuation of that, IRGC hit U.S. Air Base and headquarters in Jordan. And now Mr. Trump is going mad and saying that I’m going to hit Iran hard again. Of course, it’s not the first time this has been going on. Iran is also asserting its control over the Strait of Hormuz and IRGC Navy, the Iranian Army. They are both asserting their control there. And almost every day they are stopping a number of ships that have been trying to cross the Strait without Iran’s authorization. And of course the same talks are ongoing between Iran and the two coastal states to come up with a certain mechanism for arrangements of transit. So this is what we are going to talk about. Allow me to introduce my guests. In our studio in Tehran, we have Khomeira Ahad. And also we have Kevin Barrett joining us from Saidia in Morocco. Okay, let’s begin with Tehran, if you allow me, Kevin, so that Khomeira will just bring us some information and give us some more details regarding the goings on recently. Khomeira, do you think this is going to further escalate? Or is it going to come down? Because, if you remember the way Mr. Trump usually puts it whenever he says he’s going to do something big time and then the next day or five minutes later he changes his mind, he said let’s turn to the negotiating table.Khomeira Ahad: No, but I think that it is going to escalate. And the things which we have been seeing in the last few months point to that, that there will be escalation again . We know that in the last 24 hours, the IRGC has pounded American bases in Jordan, and ballistic missiles have been fired. The IRGC has been quite clear in saying that as long as unlawful hostile actions are carried against the Islamic Republic of Iran, and as long as the threats continue against Iran, retaliation will follow. And that is what we saw in the last 24 hours. And now we are seeing again very inflammatory rhetoric fromTrump. He has said in the last couple of hours that he’s going to again hit Iran very badly. And that’s not something new, as you already mentioned. In the last few months, if not a year or two, we have been seeing Trump again and again issuing this type of inflammatory rhetoric. And Iran has said as long as this inflammatory rhetoric continues, these types of threats continue, the American side will face retaliation from Iran. As a result of these threats, we are also seeing an effect on the world markets. According to reports, the Brent oil prices have again risen. And if the escalation continues, then we are going to see a huge effect on the global markets.Press TV: Great. Okay. Turn to Morocco now. Kevin, good to have you with us. So how do you look at things? Where is this leading?Kevin Barrett: Well, people have remarked on the parallels between Trump’s repeated threats and then his equally delusional claims that he’s been negotiating with imaginary Iranians. “It is very close to an agreement.” He typically issues the threats usually towards the end of the week so that the weekend will come and they won’t disrupt the markets too much. And then he usually says he’s been negotiating with his imaginary Iranian friends and is close to a deal on Monday to try to calm the markets leading into the week. But this time he is ranting and raving with his bizarre extreme threats in the middle of the week. So who knows what that means? I don’t think that even Trump’s psychiatrist
