"Trump supporters take the man seriously but not literally and liberals take him literally but not seriously. All this stuff is hyperbole on his part. He's going with the Nixon madman theory."

Sometimes what sounds extreme… isn't meant to be taken literally. It's meant to get a reaction. Strong, over-the-top language can actually be a strategy—not chaos. When leaders sound unpredictable, it creates pressure, with the hope that favourable decisions will be made. Don't just listen to the words—look at what those words are trying to make happen.

Of course, this relates directly to Trump's communication style, as demonstrated throughout the war with the Mullahs. The argument is that his rhetoric is meant to push opponents into action. It's not about following through on every detail. It's about creating enough uncertainty that the other side feels they have to respond. Nicky also points to how pro-freedom Iranians are celebrating attacks on the regime, despite being within range themselves. They see outside pressure as their path to freedom.

History shows that major change often comes from moments of tension and decisive action. Nicky frames this moment as part of that same pattern. Strategy, perception, and pressure all come together to drive outcomes.
