President Trump late Sunday tweeted out to Iranian President Rouhani to never threaten the U.S. again or face historic consequences.
The tweet came on the heels of Rouhani’s warning to Trump that hostile policies could lead to the “mother of all wars" with Iran.
Trump called for Rouhani to stop the rhetoric or--in caps lock-- “suffer the consequences the like of which few throughout history have ever suffered before. We are no longer a country that will stand for your demented words of violence and death. Be cautious!”
Donald J. Trump ✔ @realDonaldTrump 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!
Within hours, Iranian state-owned news agency IRNA dismissed Trump's tweet, describing it as a "passive reaction" to Rouhani's remarks.
The agency, a government mouthpiece, also said Monday that Trump's comment was only mimicking and copying Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif who had in the past warned the West to "never threaten an Iranian."
Rouhani earlier warned Trump to stop "playing with the lion's tail" and threatening Iran, "or else you will regret it."
Trump earlier this year pulled the U.S. out of the international deal meant to prevent Tehran from developing a nuclear weapon and ordered increased American sanctions.
Trump has suggested Iranian leaders are "going to call me and say 'let's make a deal'" but Iran has rejected talks.
Rouhani has previously lashed out against Trump for threatening to re-impose the sanctions, as well as for moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and banning travel to the U.S. from certain Muslim-majority countries. Rouhani also said that a peace with Tehran is like "the mother of all peace."
Sources told Reuters that U.S. officials have launched an effort to foment unrest in Tehran and put pressure on the country’s leaders to end its nuclear program.

Islam is the Middle East's Mormonism - a fraud concocted by a con artist.
The Quran was most likely written by the Hebrew speaking cousin of Khadijah - Mooohuamad's grifter wife.
Too bad Cadet Bone spur is too stupid to be able to articulate that simple fact.
Then again - if he did, his fellow poodle dogs in the jooorooosalem sodomite tribe, with their probosci up the arse of the Military Industrial Complex, wouldn't make $$$ from the Islamic instant-enemy cash cow.
Must. Feed. MOLOCH!

A cheezy rewrite of the "Fire & Furry" shuck 'n jive directed at Kim Jong Un. Once again Donnell Bonespurs has terrified himself with idiotic idiotic rhetoric & crackpot schemes, and his response is more of the same.
The all-caps response shows just how much of a weakling he really is. It's out there for the world to see, Trump is a puzzy!
His plots to incite overthrow of the Iranian government with a phony truckers strike etc. have failed miserably, as have his FUKUS attacks. He's got a lion by the tail, it's plain to see.
Addressing a gathering of Iranian diplomats, Rouhani said: “Mr Trump, don’t play with the lion’s tail, this would only lead to regret,” the state new agency IRNA reported.
“America should know that peace with Iran is the mother of all peace, and war with Iran is the mother of all wars,” Rouhani said, leaving open the possibility of peace between the two countries, at odds since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
“You are not in a position to incite the Iranian nation against Iran’s security and interests,” Rouhani said, in an apparent reference to reported efforts by Washington to destabilize Iran’s Islamic government.

For American Jews, Zionism Died When Israel's Government and People Embraced Donald Trump
U.S. Jews like me were always taught Israel would be our ultimate refuge from anti- Semitism. But Netanyahu's Israel is now proudly in bed with the very people who threaten our future

"Late Sunday"
So, maybe the degenerate one's immigrant wife told him to take a hike if he couldn't perform.....
So he needed to try to make himself feel like the man he can never be, and "tweet" IN CAPS!!!
LOL!!
No one takes this dip-shit seriously.
