Violence kitch in the manner of the authoritarian ruler of some third world, shithole country

He's pretty sure he can launch a war at will without anyone's permission.

He's pretty sure he can hit all those targets without consultation with the gang of eight, anyone else in congress, or any allied or coalition state leaders.

Trump vows to hit 52 sites 'very hard' if Iran retaliates over Suleimani killing

Donald Trump has threatened to hit 52 Iranian sites “very hard” if Iran attacks Americans or US assets in retaliation for the drone strike that killed the Iranian military commander Qassem Suleimani and an Iraqi militia leader.

. . . .

Trump tweeted that Iran “is talking very boldly about targeting certain USA assets” in response to Suleimani’s death. He said the US had “targeted 52 Iranian sites” and that some were “at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian culture, and those targets, and Iran itself, WILL BE HIT VERY FAST AND VERY HARD”.

“The USA wants no more threats!” Trump said, adding that the 52 targets represented the 52 Americans who were held hostage in Iran for 444 days after being seized at the US embassy in Tehran in November 1979.
