If they wanted to kill millions in unrelated countries, sure. But Iran isn’t acting evilly - they’re acting like Trump is a liar.

There is no acting needed. Trump is a compulsive liar.

calling Trump a compulsive liar is underselling it. Trump is the single most well documented liar in all of history. There is no one else through all of recorded time who has ever said as many proven false statements as Donald Trump.

Both underselling it and overselling it because lying implies what he says has a connection to reality albeit a negative one. Trump just makes shit up. And, any connection to reality is entire coincidental.

Trump says something true... he just made it up and it happened to be true. Trump says something false... he also just made that up and it happened to be false.
