'Go get your own oil!' The U.K. gets to experience what it was like when young Donny threw rocks at babies in cribs [View all]

President Donald Trump erupted at the United Kingdom Tuesday morning over its refusal to join the United States in its war against Iran, issuing the European nation a notice that the United States would no longer be offering it “help.”

“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

“You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil!”

=The Trump administration has reportedly grown increasingly panicked as the U.S. war against Iran has sparked a dramatic surge
in oil prices. Trump has also grown frustrated as his calls for other countries to assist in the United States’ war efforts have gone on to be ignored.
