‘Some people will die’: Trump asked if Americans should worry about new domestic terror attacks, shrugs and says ‘we expect some things’

Isaac Newton said, “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction”. Right now, Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu, Pete Hegseth, and his goons are crowing about the billions of dollars worth of explosives they’re pouring down onto Iran.

The goal, as per Hegseth, is for the United States to deliver “death and destruction” to Iran. Well, on this, at least nobody can call him a liar. Large parts of Tehran are now in ruins, critical Iranian public infrastructure is obliterated, and countless civilians are dead or seriously injured.

It’s easy to see destroyed buildings, explosions, and rubble on the news and forget that buried within will be regular folk’s sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, friends, husbands, wives, and so on. And when they’re looking for revenge? Well, many of them will have already considered America to be the “Great Satan”, so that righteous thirst for justice for their loved ones will only intensify.

Welcome to the reaction.

Some of us will die, but that is a sacrifice Trump is willing to make.

So, is Donald Trump concerned about a massive blowback and an increase in domestic terrorism as a result of the bloodbath he’s caused in the Middle East? Nah. I mean, yeah, a bunch of you are gonna die, but whatevs!

Asked whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump told TIME:

“I guess… We plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things. Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”

And so the Lord Farquaadification of Donald Trump is complete! Some of us will die, but that is a sacrifice Trump is willing to make.

Of course, Trump himself will likely be six feet under by the time the consequences of his actions are visited on regular Americans. These things take time to ferment, but expect the next decade and change to see an uptick in revenge attacks against America, both on the domestic front and internationally.

So just remember when you’re watching in horror, as 9/11 Round Two plays out on TV, that Donald Trump factored this into his decision to go to war. Equal and opposite reactions! It’s just one of those things!
