Iran won’t be intimidated by Trump’s 'BS'
Iran won’t be intimidated by Trump’s “BS”, The Times News explained, saying it’s becoming clear that Trump will not follow through on the threats he makes even as Trump threatened Iran again.
The President of the United States took to his declining social media platform this morning to rage about how his failing war in Iran is being covered, claiming that even if Iran was shouting “I surrender” the media and ‘Dumacrats’ would say otherwise.
In other words, once again Trump is trying to gaslight the world. But the international media is not buying it.

The problem for Trump, who has largely captured US media to varying degrees, is that he can’t gaslight and threaten international media into pretending that the US president is a strong leader who is winning, winning, winning.
Trump’s bluster has humiliated him on the global stage, where anchors have struggled to explain his increasingly unhinged threats against Iran when it is obvious that the US no longer has the upper hand.
For example, Trump threatened Iran again on Sunday, writing that the “clock is ticking” and if they don’t do what Trump wants, “there won’t be anything left of them.”
On Monday morning, a British news outlet was explaining that Iran won’t be intimidated by Trump’s “BS”, with a columnist adding it’s becoming clear that Trump will not follow through on the threats he makes.
“Indeed, Trump’s frustration is palpable in his social media posts. He vents his fury, he makes these threats, but none of it moves the dial,” The Sunday Times columnist Mark Urban said Monday. “He as a business man should know, that when your partner detects BS, they're not going to be intimidated”.
The Times is British daily national newspaper based in London.
The international news is a nonstop drip-drip of how much of a failure Trump and Netanyahu’s war of choice against Iran has been thus far. They are, after all, suffering the impacts and so have a stake in the daily reporting of the failures of the US president.
Trump blames the media and Democrats for his bad press
Trump on Monday blamed the media and Democrats for the reporting about his failure in Iran, even though our media here is all but wiping his mouth with a soft nappy after each Truth Social logorrhea dump.
