Dementia Donnie has a bold new theory of diplomacy: drop $250 million worth of bombs on people, then announce they are "really in submission" even if they have not noticed.
On Fox & Friends, Trump said Iran is "dying to make a deal" and bragged, "We dropped $250 million of bombs on them last night." Then he added that Iran is "really in submission" and "just don't know it yet," which is not how diplomacy works, not how submission works, and not how reality works. Reuters reports Trump also threatened further attacks and discussed seizing Iran's Kharg Island oil hub amid the escalating war.
Iran is in submission, the way Trump is in shape.
