Trump reportedly angered by intelligence chief’s social media warning against ā€˜warmongers’ placing the world ā€˜on the brink of nuclear annihilation’

As he weighs joining Israel’s war against Iran, Donald Trump reportedly finds himself at odds with his Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, with one White House official saying that he has ā€œjust been kind of down on her in generalā€ of late.

Trump was recently incensed, according to Politico, by Gabbard’s decision to post a three-minute video on X in the early hours of June 10 in which she warned that ā€œpolitical elite and warmongersā€ are ā€œcarelessly fomenting fear and tensions between nuclear powers,ā€ placing the world ā€œon the brink of nuclear annihilation.ā€

Trump is said to have been angered by the video, accusing Gabbard of going ā€œoff-messageā€ and rebuking her for it in person.

    If donvict enters a war with Iran, I cannot wait to see how the dumbasses still in the maga base will parrot ā€œpromises made, promises keptā€ about the very guy that promised them ā€œpeaceā€. They did it during donvict 1.0, too. When not one fucking promise was kept. They had a raging erection about building a wall, and the only thing donvict really did was give a big handout to the affluent in his first term.

    And the ones like mtg, etc…how many come crawling back, I wonder?
