Former U.S. Congressman Adam Kinzinger strongly criticized President Donald Trump after the latter posted on Truth Social, threatening to wipe out Iran as a civilization. Kinzinger wrote on X, “Meanwhile, as Trump threatens a civilizations extinction…. Congress is on vacation. Enjoy it…”
Despite his strong words, Trump did not follow through on the most extreme version of his threat, and instead agreed to a two-week ceasefire deal with Iran. Kinzinger, a Republican who has become one of Trump’s sharpest critics, also told CNN’s State of the Union earlier that Trump’s “biggest mistake” was “just not preparing the American people for it.”
