Thanks, Bibi

 

And Trump preferred Bibi's assessment.  Never thinking Bibi might be baiting him.

Link to the NYT article quoted above.

The article makes Vance out to be the voice of reason but unable to deter Trump.  So, since he was right about what could happen if Trump followed Bibi, and considering that other cabinet members were more inclined to agree with Vance, perhaps they can all get together now to bolster each other into calling for the 25th amendment remedy to remove Trump.  That's probably too much to hope for, but it would indeed be to Vance's advantage.  And MAGA leaders are calling for it.

And if he goes ahead with his threat to kill a whole civilization, he should be impeached.  

Good point.

UPDATE 04/09/2026:  Zeteo is reporting that Trump is furious about this leak to the Times reporters (who have an entire book coming out: Regime Change).  I'd say if there's a leak about this particular incident, there's only a small group of people who could have leaked.  Who was at that meeting?  Only his most trusted cronies.  These are the people who wear shoes too big for them.  I suppose one of them could have complained to other people they thought would keep quiet.  

These revelations appear to be just the start of an arterial gush of revelations that Swan and Haberman have obtained – and Trump was already pissed off, publicly fantasizing about suing the authors with billowing anger that predates this week’s Times story.

Last month, the US president erupted at Haberman online, posting that she’s “just another SLEAZEBAG writer for The Failing New York Times,” and saying, “I’m thinking of adding Maggot, and some of her ‘associates,’ into my Florida based Lawsuit against The Times.” He and his staff also attached a photo of Haberman to his post, making it clear where they wanted their Two Minutes Hate directed. At the time, his outburst seemed to come out of nowhere. But it was all about the book.

[...]

One close Trump adviser says the president started getting “a little nervous” about the book in March, and sporadically went on profanity-laced tirades declaring the leaks an invasion of his privacy and potentially “treason,” and demanding the names of senior appointees who anonymously leaked.

If Vance is going to use the 25th, he better do it soon.
