6. Killing a terrorist is PR

Killing the head of QuD is an act of war against Iran.
This isnt his plan, obviously, but part of a bigger plan to retain power and wealth.

This is a seriously dark turn. Our nation is in trouble.

I hope you are right but I'm not holding my breath.
This, for me, is a clear signal that trump has no intention of allowing elections to happen. Now if he is successful or not is a different story but that is his intention.
