Wait, Donald Trump just said WHAT about Iran?

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

We knew something underhanded was going on when Donald Trump’s corrupt Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that it was Iran who launched the devastating drone strike against Saudi Arabia, even as rebels in Yemen were taking credit, and Saudi Arabia wasn’t even accusing Iran of having been involved. Now Trump has gone and turned the whole thing into even more of a farce.

Donald Trump posted this tweet on Sunday evening: “Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked. There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!” As you might guess, there are a few problems here.

First of all, Trump sounds like a cartoon character when he says the U.S. is “locked and loaded.” He seems to be implying that he’s going to target Iran with air strikes. But this is the same Iran that, as recently as a few days ago, Trump was trying to bribe into a new peace deal with a $15 billion line of credit.

Third, since when does Saudi Arabia get to decide what the U.S. military is going to do? Only Congress can authorize war, not the murderous Saudi Arabian Crown Prince. We have no idea what Trump is even talking about here, and neither does he. The Iran situation is getting worse for him by the day, and at this point his only fix would be to go back in time and not have ripped up the Obama-Iran peace deal.
