🍝 THE DAILY SITDOWN 🍝

So, this Trump guy, right? He opens his big yap again. This time, he’s comparing our little drone strikes on Iran – *little* – to Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Hiroshima and Nagasaki! The *fucking* atomic bombs. Capisce? Now, I’m no saint, believe me. I’ve seen things… things you wouldn’t *believe*. But even *I* know that comparing a few targeted airstrikes to incinerating hundreds of thousands of civilians is a little… much, even for *him*. He says, “that hit ended the war.” Yeah, well, *this* hit, the one on Iran, probably just pissed them off more, like poking a hornet’s nest with a fuckin’ meatball sub. It's a whole different ballgame, see? One's a surgical strike, and the other’s… well, you know, the equivalent of dropping a whole fuckin’ pizza on a guy. A *very* large pizza. The mayor of Nagasaki, some guy named Suzuki – sounds like a fuckin’ fish, right? – says Trump’s comments are “extremely regrettable.” Regretable? I’d say that’s a bit of an understatement, like calling a twenty-five-year sentence “a slight inconvenience.” These people, the survivors, they’re still dealing with the fallout, literally and figuratively. Cancer, trauma, the whole nine yards. It’s not something you just *fuhgeddaboudit*. Then you got these hibakusha – atomic bomb survivors – protesting. Good for them. They’re showing some balls, I’ll give them that. These people, they’ve been through hell, and they’re not taking this shit lying down. You gotta respect that. And the Japanese government? They’re sending some polite little note to Washington, like a bunch of fuckin’ Girl Scouts complaining about a cookie shortage. Repeatedly, they say. Repeatedly. Like they think saying it again and again will somehow make it go away. That’s diplomacy, huh? I mean, you think *I* go soft on a guy after I tell him something once? Trump, meanwhile, is doubling down. He’s claiming the Iran strikes “obliterated” their nuclear program. Obliterated? The CIA director’s backing him up, too. Yeah, right. Like those two are gonna tell the truth. Reminds me of that time Paulie Walnuts swore he saw Big Pussy in Atlantic City… You know what I'm saying? You gotta be careful what you believe. Look, I ain’t no expert in international relations, but even I can see this is a disaster waiting to happen. Trump is playing with fire, and this time, the fire ain't just gonna burn a few houses; it could burn the whole fuckin' world. And honestly, that's the last thing *I* need. I got enough problems right here in North Jersey. So, let's just hope this thing doesn't escalate, yeah? Because nobody needs another fuckin' war. Especially not me. Now, who wants another espresso?
