A tweet written nearly a decade ago by then-Democratic nominee for president, Hillary Clinton, resurfaced on Tuesday following President Donald Trump’s genocidal threats against Iran.
“A man you can bait with a tweet is not a man we can trust with nuclear weapons. —Hillary,” Clinton wrote on July 28, 2016.
“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!” Trump wrote Tuesday morning.
Swalwell also joined numerous politicians in calling for Trump’s removal from office under the 25th Amendment.
The tweet prompted many users to say, in some form: “Hillary was right about everything.”
