The law of the jungle is Putin, *rump and Netanyahu's vision of how the world should be because that's all they can see or visualize.

Prairie Gates
(8,200 posts)The most generous reading is that he's play-acting as "America" for the purpose of his little joke. But it is still indicative of his narcissism. Most people making the same joke (supposing they were this nasty and boorish) would say "Why didn't you tell US about Pearl Harbor?" - not ME, but US.
Trump is unable to think in those terms.

So launching another unwinnable war by surprise will result in another loss but this time, the entire world economy and millions of bystanders will die horrible deaths.

WW2 is not a joke in Japan. They are generationally traumatized by it, and especially the 2 atomic bombs.

'Profound idiot': Nicolle Wallace struggles to process Trump's shock joke to Japanese PM www.rawstory.com/nicolle-wall...
— Ray Bannatyne (@mrfoo123.bsky.social) 2026-03-19T22:56:15.128Z
Oh man! No joking about Nagasaki and Hiroshima being the double tap that ended WW2?
He's obtuse. And acutely moronic.
https://www.rawstory.com/nicolle-wallace-trump-japan/
Wallace was visibly stunned after discussing Trump's attempted joke that clearly left the room uncomfortable when a reporter asked why Trump hadn't warned his allies that the U.S.-Israeli military strikes were coming.
"One thing, you don't want to signal too much when we go in," Trump said. "We went in very hard and we didn't tell anyone about it because we wanted surprise. Who knows better about surprise than Japan? Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"
Wallace watched the video playback and commented on Trump, asking her panel to share their thoughts.
"I struggle every minute of every day with platforming him, one, I should do it all day because it shows what a profound idiot he is," Wallace said. "But but two, we were on other sides. This is a question about why didn't you read in your allies? And he says, we didn't know what our adversary was going to do. I mean, David Frum, what do you even, how's your brain doing?"
