This is the ranting of a crazy person

Even by Trump standards, this Easter message on "Truth Social" is as bizarre and unhinged as it gets. On edit: As per CNN, it turns out the article cleaned up the message. Trump actually spelled out "fuckin'" and "bastards". Amazing

The US president ordered Iran to "open the f**kin' strait" or otherwise face hell, with the 10-day deadline he gave on March 26 coming to an end in hours. He went on to say "Praise be to Allah" as he warned the attacks on Iranian infrastructure will be like nothing seen before.

US military must have steam coming out of their ears and cussing up a storm.

Their CIC, president of the US, has ZERO self discipline, poor judgement, and loose lips.
Runs his mouth putting troops in serious danger.

He is PROVING that he’s crazier than a
shithouse rat!
He needs to be removed by force and incarcerated in a padded cell deep below ground.

the similiar sounding one posted yesterday might have actually been written by hegseth. This one sounds very close...hegseth in a drunken rage because he can't fire one person to give his buddy the slot?

That’s absolutely him.

Sure, it could also be Miller or Cheung or some incel staffer, but what about any of that says it positively couldn’t be the insane man we’ve been seeing for years?

I saw this circulating and assumed (hoped?) that it was fake. Alas, it’s real.

Not only does it reflect a rapidly unraveling president, it comes just days after he expressed indifference to the Strait of Hormuz during his WH address. (“We don’t need it. We haven’t needed it, and we don’t need it”)
