A little less than an hour ago, President Trump posted this on Truth Social:
The lamestream media has not reported this surrender, but there’s no way the President of the United States would truth this on Truth Social if it didn’t happen.
Iran Surrenders!
Well, it’s complicated.

@Kathy:

@Kathy: The problem is that winning the election makes someone President, with all the powers thereto. It doesn’t, of course, make them presidential.

The delusion:
[Trump:] Iran, which is being beat to HELL, has apologized and surrendered to its Middle East neighbors
The counterpoint:
Iran rejects Trump’s demand for unconditional surrender as a ‘dream’
Iran’s enemies, Pezeshkian said, “must take their dream of the Iranian people’s unconditional surrender to their graves”, in remarks that further escalate the eighth day of conflict, which has choked global oil supplies and cut world air travel.

Welcome back my friends, to the show that never ends
We’re so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside
There behind a glass stands a real blade of grass
Be careful as you pass, move along, move alongCome inside, the show’s about to start
Guaranteed to blow your head apart
Rest assured you’ll get your money’s worth
Greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth
You’ve got to see the show, it’s a dynamo
You’ve got to see the show, it’s rock and roll, oh(ELP – Karn Evil 9: 1st Impression, Part 2)

@Scott F.:
Oddly, the truth failed to mention that when the Middle Eastern Countries said, “Thank you President Trump,” they had tears in their eyes. That surely happened, so I assume POTUS was just too modest to boast about it.
And apparently, there is discussion of renaming the Persian Gulf, “The Gulf of America Too.” But again, modesty.

I posted this in the Friday forum, but it belongs here. This administration’s definition of “surrender” isn’t the traditional one. We have a new language, which I will for the moment dub Trumplesh.

What the (and I really must empahsise this) F@CK?
I don’t now about the tears in other’s eyes, but Trump’s mangling of the English language and basic rationality certainly brings tears to mine.
The thing is, MAGA will respond to this with “Lulz, Trump trolz you, luzers! You haz TDS!”
Which is all very well, but in war policy, coherent thought is usually an advantage.
Overwhelming military power can compensate for a lot of foolishness.
Up to the point when it can’t.
Discovering those limits by experiment can be sometimes be painfulSee the history of Germany in relation to the fantasies of both Kaiser Willhelm II and Adolf Hitler.

@JohnSF: Ah…don’t take that attitude. Language has become a new, wonderfully fun game, Calvinball rules, of course!
