No thanks, it’s not necessary

Headline in today's N.Y. Times:

'Iran War Live Updates: As Attacks Shake Markets, Trump Seeks to Reassure Americans'

https://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/03/19/world/iran-war-news-trump-oil

 

President Trump feels Americans are experiencing anxiety about what's going on in the world today. I think he's absolutely right. He announced he's taking whatever steps necessary to alleviate this anxiety. I beliver that's the right thing to do.

 

It's the 'Reassure' part that I don't believe is necessary in this situation. Why do I say that?

 

Look at the word closely. RE  ASS  URE

ASS Is there any question Trump is one?

URE 'You are' Self-explanatory 

RE To do again ex:Rerun, recount, recycle

 

What does Trump want to do? He wants to remind Americans he's an ass! We appreciate the gesture, Mr President, but it isn't necessary to remind us you're an ass. I would say the vast majority of Americans figured that out the first time!
