Donald Trump is what they call in poker a"loose aggressive player," whereas Biden's style is to play a measured game of bridge over tea and crumpets, writes Post columnist Rich Lowry.If they have any instinct for self-preservation, Iran and Hamas should be monitoring President-elect Donald Trump ’s communications very closely these days. “Those responsible,” Trump noted, “will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America.
The most basic thing to note about Trump’s threat, though, is that it is the first time an official of the US government — or a soon-to-be government official — has sounded appropriately outraged and harsh about an ongoing crime perpetrated against our fellow citizens. His willingness to escalate and follow through means no threat can be completely discounted, while his sheer unpredictably adds to the difficulty of any foreign actor trying to calculate his next move.
The president-elect doesn’t like foreign conflict, but he bombed ISIS to smithereens as promised in the 2016 election and killed the top Iranian intelligence official, Qasem Soleimani, without hesitation in 2020.
