Donald Trump’s pathetic social media ultimatum had four key moments that might leave you thinking it was a hoax, a language analyst revealed.
Despite being just 45 words long, his deranged Truth Social rant was constructed without any obvious reason behind it, according to body and language expert Judi James. It was filled with bonkers aspects that seemingly proved the US President was losing the plot.
Trump posted on his Truth Social earlier today ahead of his Monday deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. It was a major escalation in the President’s war on Iran, in what was his most unhinged statement so far.
He wrote: “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the F*****’ Strait, you crazy b******s, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

Despite the obvious numerous grammatical errors, there were key parts to the statement the might leave the public it couldn’t possibly be real.
Judi told the Mirror: “The first response to this is that it is a hoax. Trump excels in stream-of-consciousness communications but this one is a stand-out showstopper.”
Commas everywhere
“The inappropriate use of the comma is shocking enough alone,” said Judi. There’s three commas in just one sentence, consisting of just 16 words.
Capping up the ‘F’
Trump decided to start his ‘f*****’ expletive with a capital letter – for some reason.
Judi was equally confused, saying: “There’s the assumption of a capital F for the F word?”
The dreaded B-word
Trump’s use of the word ‘b******’ confused the language analyst, seeing as it’s rarely used these days. It was traditionally used to describe a child born out of wedlock, and is quite obviously outdated.
She said: “The b-word has now been removed from modern and more measured communication.”
‘Praise be’
Trump’s grim reference to Allah – clearly aimed at Iran seeing as its state religion is Islam.
The ironic ending in itself would be enough to leave you thinking the post must be fake, said Judi.
She added: “This clearly reads full of an anger that sounds so severe that punctuation and elegant language have been shelved, when politics tends to be more about the parental-style power of calm, calculated communication that is full of self control.
“A message like this might have been constructed with a specific response in mind but its not clear what that response should be. Is it intended to scare? It’s such a hands-on personal approach in terms of a threat.”
Hours after Trump’s expletive-laden post promising Iran will be “living in Hell” over the Strait of Hormuz closure, Tehran’s mission to the U.N. called the open threats to target civilian infrastructure “a direct and public incitement to terrorise civilians and clear evidence of intent to commit war crime.”
“The international community and all States have legal obligations to prevent such atrocious acts of war crimes,” the mission said in a post on the social platform X. “They must act now. Tomorrow is too late.”
Trump later gave details of the rescue of a “seriously wounded and really brave” US service member he identified as a “respected colonel” who was missing since Iran shot down a US F-15E Strike Eagle on Friday.
The US president said the rescue was a rarely attempted type of operation because of the potential dangers. A second crew member was rescued earlier in “broad daylight” after seven hours over Iran.
