Episode 153 - Scott Adams Talks About President Trump’s ALL-CAPS Tweet to Iran
President Trump’s warning tweet to Iran’s President Rouhani ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I fund my Periscopes and podcasts via audience micro-donations on Patreon. I prefer this method over accepting advertisements or working for a "boss" somewhere because it keeps my voice independent. No one owns me, and that is rare. I'm trying in my own way to make the world a better place, and your contributions help me stay inspired to do that.

So some of you might remember there was an old story in the news. I'm not sure when this occurred. Maybe you can fact-check me. I think it was a year ago. It was approximately a year ago the president had a summit with Putin. Oh wait, it wasn't a year ago. It was one week ago.
You can barely remember what happened. Did I tell you a week ago when the summit went bad, I said in a week you probably won't even remember it happened because there's going to be so much that happens between now and then? Well, I was not disappointed.
So I guess last night President Trump tweeted in all caps. I'll read the tweet and I'll read it in all caps. If you've ever read something in all caps, you know it reads completely differently.
"Iranian President Rouhani. Never, ever threaten the United States again or you will suffer consequences the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before. We are no longer a country that will stand for your demented words of violence and death. Be cautious."
Somebody's at my door. I've got room service. Stay with me for a minute. I'm live on video. But go ahead and do it. Yes, please. You can just leave it anywhere. Thank you.
So let me finish reading this tweet. There are several things to talk about here. Number one is this is Trump's first all-caps tweet. So there are several things going on here. Number one is that this has turned up the heat higher than you've ever seen before.
And does this play look exactly like the Rocket Man-Dotard exchange? Does it look familiar? Don't you think you've been here before?
So it looks to me that the president is responding to Rouhani's comment about messing with Iran would be the mother of all wars. But interestingly, Rouhani also said it would be, you know, it could be the mother of all peace to have peace with Iran. So I think Rouhani wants some peace, but I think both he and the president, they ramped it up all the way. Yes, please. They needed to ramp it up all the way to get to the next level.
So let me try to do math and talk to you at the same time. Thank you. We're having bagels. Bagels. And I'll show you. Like I'm multitasking. Healthy.
Let's take this simultaneous sip of the level with actual hotel coffee, not something out of a paper cup.
So anyway, yes, this seems to be a North Korea replay where the president takes it up to the highest level, scares the pants off of everybody, including our own people. Now at the same time, a couple other things happened. You saw, I think, Mike Pompeo said something in a tweet maybe yesterday about supporting the Iranian people. No, I thought that might have been a mistake because I don't think the United States should look like it's behind a revolution because that just gives the Iranians something to push against. You know, it gives them a common enemy on the outside. I think any revolution that happens in Iran, that just needs to be Iran's internal business because we could wait forever. We're not really in a hurry and there isn't much chance that the Iranian leadership will survive forever.
Now we also saw the president or the administration, whoever did it, accused Iranian leader Khamenei of having a $95 billion hedge fund. So now the accusation's out that Khamenei is a big old thief who stole $95 billion. I don't know how true that is, but it's out there. And apparently we're looking at ramping up the sanctions to whatever level got them to the table last time.
So I need to eat my breakfast, so I'm not going to stay around for too long. It looks to me like we're just seeing exactly the play that seems to be working in North Korea. So that's good.
And apparently the UN had a vote in which they almost passed a resolution that blamed both sides for the Israeli situation. That had almost blamed Hamas, when normally the UN doesn't. Normally the UN only blames Israel for everything. But they narrowly almost passed something that blamed both sides. So there does seem to be a big shift coming. That was the tone of the article on that. And I think Nikki Haley and David Friedman and somebody else wrote that memo.
All right, go eat. I think I will. Yeah. There's some implication of Obama in Spygate. I don't know about that yet. I literally just woke up.
All right, I need to go eat. I just wanted to talk about that. This tweet is doing everything you needed to do. The president's tweet in all caps, because it changes the news cycle, it put America back on the offensive, scares the pants off of everybody, which is exactly what he wants to do, and it sets things up for maybe a good result. So we'll see. And I'll talk to you later.
pom pom pom pom pom pom poms hey everybody can you hear me I'm not sure my sound is working right now but if it is if it is you know what time it is it's time for the simultaneous up it's time for coffee with Scott Adams it's time to talk about ourselves in the third person and now join me if you will for the best sip of the day I call it the simultaneous sip and here it comes oh good stuff so some of you remember there's an old story in the news I'm not sure when this occurred maybe you can fact check me I think it was a year ago I was so approximately a year ago the President had a summit with Putin oh wait it wasn't a year ago it was one week ago you can barely remember what did I tell you a week ago when the summit went bad I said in a week you family gonna remember it happen because there's gonna be so much that happens between now and then well I was not disappointed so I guess last night President Trump tweeted in all caps I will read the tweet and I'll read it I'll read them in all caps if you've ever read something in all caps you know it reads completely differently so -
