Iran's foreign ministry mimicked the State Department's tactic of criticizing the Iranian government while consoling Iran's citizens: "To the American people," the ministry spokesman said, "the world is standing with you. And to the American officials and police: Stop violence against your people and let them breathe."

Well, if other nations are going to treat us the same way we’ve treated their internal politics it’s only time before the Russians SPEZNAZ THE CHAZ.

Trump's disposition makes it likely his response to these retorts is to target those who he will view as making him look bad.

Honor, thanks for the thoughtful response.

Lol. Who could've seen that coming except people familiar with the last 300 years or so of history? It's only their hilarious insignificance that is likely preventing a reign of terror from happening in, like, a couple of weeks.

(The left-wingers attempting to set up an autonomous zone in Seattle are forming crude, factional government-like organization. This includes self-declared police force. That police force is then proceeding to violate rights like our actual police force.)
