President Trump does not mince words, slamming the early cease-fire breach between Iran and Israel as “two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f—- they’re doing.”

Simple and to the point: just the kind of “tell it like it is” message that the American people need to hear.

For years we’ve endured placid politi-speak from D.C. and world leaders when it comes to Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East. Iran was told it mustn’t build nukes, and promised it wouldn’t in exchange for sanctions relief. The country pinky-swore it would reduce its uranium enrichment stockpile.

But Iran’s recent acceleration in uranium enrichment, as reported by the International Atomic Energy Agency, sparked alarm, as well it should. Iran, like the terrorists of Hamas, doesn’t recognize Israel’s right to exist. The idea of Iran with nuclear weapons is a chilling one.

Trump could have given a “tsk-tsk” speech before world leaders and secured more promises to do better. But, as Israel and Iran grappled in an air war, Trump gave the order for Operation Midnight Hammer, which dropped bunker-buster bombs on nuclear sites in Iran.

The message: The U.S. isn’t playing.

Iran fired back by launching missiles at an American air force base in Qatar, a face-saving gesture in which no injuries were reported. Trump announced a cease-fire, which both sides then breached with missiles.

As of this writing, the fragile cease-fire is back on.

Democrats, of course, are furious.

Some in Congress rushed to claim that Trump violated the Constitution in bombing Iran.

It was “unauthorized & unconstitutional,” said Massachusetts’ own Rep. Katherine Clark. Sen. Elizabeth Warren joined the fray: “Only Congress can declare war — and the Senate must vote immediately to prevent another endless war.”

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez posted Saturday night that “Trump has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations .. and it is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

One small problem for all these Democratic Chicken Littles: other presidents have also made unilateral military moves. Last year, President Biden ordered the U.S. military to strike Houthi rebels in Yemen who were attacking international shipping in the Red Sea. In 2011 President Obama ordered the military to attack Libyan government forces.

But they weren’t Trump, so no harm, no foul.

As for the impeachment call, cooler heads prevailed on both sides of the aisle Tuesday, as House Democrats and Republicans voted 344 to 79 on a GOP motion to nix an article of impeachment brought by Texas Democratic Rep. Al Green.

Perhaps Democrats have finally realized that it’s not a good idea to shoot holes in the bottom of your sinking boat. AOC, Warren, Clarke and the rest of the progressive set are no doubt apoplectic over Rep. Buddy Carter, R-Ga, who wrote to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee nominating Trump for the prize as he  had an “extraordinary and historic role” in having ended “the armed conflict between Israel and Iran and preventing the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism from obtaining the most lethal weapon on the planet.”

Simple words, direct action. It’s what 77 million Americans voted for last November, and no amount of flailing by Democrats is going to change that.
