      Is threatening to wipe a nation of 81 million people off the face of the earth a violation of Twitter's terms of service? Can someone ask @jack about this? https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1130207891049332737 …

      "wipe...off the face of the earth" is the leading Ayatollah's language, not Trump's... don't ameliorate the Iranian regime because Trump is an awful American President

      There's only one country that has used nuclear weapons to wipe out cities from the face of the earth and it wasn't Iran. Do you know what country it was?

      Oh, Jeet, you really have bent your mind toward the propaganda employed by totalitarians.

      I'm asking you a factual question. What's the only country in the history of the world to use nuclear weapons to destroy cities?

      Jeet, bullshit. You're being an ahistorical propagandist. Your anti-Americanism is really distorting your perception toward ameliorating tyrants.

      I remember being called an Anti-American when I opposed the Iraq War. And of course those who opposed the Vietnam war were also called anti-Americans. Do you really think this tired reactionary rhetoric convinces anyone?

      #pt Incidentally, you're Canadian. You don't even take any political risks in parroting regime rhetoric against the US. Americans who opposed the Vietnam War by quoting Mao were roundly seen as totalitarian shills (see the song "Revolution"), but compared to you, they took risks

      If you're talking about Maoism & totalitarianism, then accusing critics of government of aiding & abetting enemy is text book dictator talk. Very similar to Trump's "enemy of the people" in fact.

      Moronic. I didn't say "aiding & abetting", I said you are using totalitarian dictator's propaganda lines (indisputably true) & indirectly ameliorating this murderous dictatorship in your animus against the US. 1/2

      Opposing an unnecessary war is not anti-American but profoundly pro-American. Supporting an unnecessary war is deeply anti-American. Charles De Gaulle was doing the United States a favor when he said to avoid escalation in Vietnam.

          Enough with your deflections from your own words. This has to do with your borrowing a totalitarian regime's approved rhetoric. (Incidentally, you've said very little about Iranian threats of war for YEARS. The issue of war seems secondary to you.) #muteconv

          Could you summarize what you think Trump's words in the original quoted tweet mean?
