[DAWN] IT may have been more prudent for Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
to make the overture before delivering the ballistic message in capital letters. But then, prudence is hardly a quality anyone associates with the White House incumbent.

His belligerent tweet late last month, vowing "consequences the likes of which few throughout history have ever suffered before" if Iran dared to threaten the US, was evidently a response to remarks by Iranian president Hassan Rouhani to the effect that the choice for America was between ’the mother of all peace’ and the ’mother of all wars’, which could easily be interpreted as an overture rather than a threat.
